All of the quotes under the images come from Pat Benetar's "Sex as a Weapon" which is a pretty good title for this one. I admit that I got lost in Brendan Byers vs. Bull Barrett pretty fast. It might be the best thing I've watched all year, because it made me forget about everything but the video. I longed to be there and be part of it (alternating between wanting to be Brendan and Bull), the raw intensity is that strong.
You know you’re already my obsession, Sex as a weapon. |
Big Brendan Byers won two Caveys last year (one wrestler and one match). To face off against Bull, he's back in bright pink, perhaps a back to his jobber roots? Maybe he was having flashbacks to his classic match against Brooklyn Bodywrecker? No worries, though, Brendan's rough-and-ready heel persona is in full swing as he meets a true equal on the mats. The black and pink gear coordinate but don't tell the story.
With looks that kill and a mind that's twisted, I don't know why I can't resist it? |
You play with desire like it was a toy. |
How much affection can you destroy? |
Bull's first match was great but this is amazingly better. Brendan is the perfect opponent for him. Both MEN can take the abuse and come back to dominate. And Bull loves to dominate. His soundtrack is thrilling as he seduces Brendan. When he demands Brendan admit that he loves being dominated, I was cheering for the big MAN in pink to whimper "yes" like this was some kind of rom-com.
You really do know how to strut that stuff, You really do know how to act tough. |
I tell myself, look the other way. |
When you want me to, I always stay. |
With the wrestling, there's an unspoken element of "anything you can do I can do better". Both guys use camels, head scissors, body punching, and low blows. With Bull, every hold is intense and made-to-last so he can keep the dominating talk going. Brendan breaks out his power with a body slam and rack. The match ends with a lengthy and impressive sleeper and both MEN still in their trunks.
Your body’s just like a centerfold. |
A fantasy anyone would want to hold. |
You wrap my heart around your little finger, Sex, sex, sex, sex, sex, sex, sex as a weapon. |
So that's my take. What's yours?

This match was intense and the chemistry was undeniable. One of my top favorite matches I’ve ever had.
ReplyDeleteThat’s awesome to read. It certainly comes across on screen. Great job. You guys were simply amazing together.
DeleteI'm still blown away by how hot this match was. The extent of the suffering Brendan puts Bull through is palpable. It was incredible to watch the beast of a man whimper like putty in Brendan's hands, and even more so to then see him turn it around with even greater resolve.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your perspective. I’m right there with you. So great.
DeleteI thought I recognized Bull. He also has an IG under oli.lifting. And for a while at least he had a profile on meetfighters (as does Brendan I think). Both these guys should be on anyone's bucket list.
ReplyDeleteThat’s cool. He was new to me, but he definitely is a wrestling guy.
DeleteAs for bucket list guys, like I said, this match is so good that I wished I was there, alternating between wanting to be the guy wrestling Brendan then the guy wrestling Bull. They’re both perfect (and way out of my wrestling league).
