In past years, the Besties featured 15 awards as far as I can tell. I would break them into four categories: Persona (Babyface, Heel, Jobber, Debut), Aesthetics (Body, Abs, Bulge, Butt), Matches (Overall, Ring, Mat, Squash) and Action (Submission, Sexiest, Liplock).
Does Kid Karisma still have the Best Butt in BGEast? |
Or will someone else win the Ty-tle this year? |
Unfortunately, it quickly became apparent to me that there’s a ton of BGEast action I haven’t watched this year and I have no way of watching it. They offered me DVD’s of every match I've missed in 2016, but I declined. They can't do OTA’s or VOD’s. I’m a digital guy. Even my computer doesn’t have a DVD player any more.
All this means I can’t fill in the gaps and it seems unfair to me to have nominators who haven't watched everything. I did suggest they use their own records to identify their top customers and offer them the chance to weigh in as a loyalty bonus. It's simple, free and talk-worthy, but no idea if they’ll actually do that.
Alas, my moment to directly impact the nominees for the 2016 Besties may have passed me by, but I do have a few thoughts anyway. Not on everything, but on a few things. Some of my choices are clear from the Caveys.
Wrestlers like Carter, Ty, Biff, Kid Karisma, Flash, and Van were all recognized by me in some capacity this year. And all are deserving in many categories. And perennial favorites like Jonny, Guido, Jake and Kip will undoubtedly show up for our consideration.
Carter and Kid should get nominations in the match, persona, and aesthetics areas |
I won't be surprised if Flash and Van are named for wrestling, persona and aesthetic reasons, either |
The most reviewed + praised match of 2016 should be a no-brainer nominee for Best Overall + Ring |
For your consideration …
Debut: Beauxregard. I really hope he gets a nomination. Two matches, both really good and he’s sexy as hell. I expect guys like Calvin Haynes and Chase Addams to get nods, but I’m hoping that Beauxregard gets one, too.
Beauxregard has two breakout performances in 2016 |
Lazlo brilliantly played a submissive who wrestled just hard enough to earn daddy's domination |
He's beautiful, but please don't call him a babyface |
Kirk makes a compelling case |
Doesn't Daddy's web deserve some love? |
For me, Calvin would be a great choice. Just a simple nod for a hairy slab of beef that fills out his trunks like a star. There's a reason Christian and Jonny both spent time admiring Calvin's smoking hot body. I might be in the minority, but I'd take Calvin's physique over at least two of last year's nominees.
Jonny seems to respect a hot hairy hunk. How about BGEast's nominating committee? |
The studs had fun playing and so did I |
There's no doubt where this one is headed |
A wonderful ring match from both guys |
What about you? I’m sure you watched things I didn’t. If you were nominating, what should BGEast consider that you think they might not?
