Agree with all you [and JS] said about it, would just add that the camera work was exceptional in this one for showcasing Impact's hot hot biceps. An especially memorable shot has Impact on the defensive, locked in Brock's head scissors hold; the close-up of the inside of Impact's upper arm had to be shot by a cameraman prone on the mat.

He was part of a high point of hot hunks.

He always k...I think Bulldog was really underrated. He always kept things lighthearted, like when he took Mario's comparison of his new blond highlights to Goku from Dragonball Z as a compliment, or when he "tattled" on Pee Wee by calling out for "Mr. Mike!" during a match when Pee Wee was up to his usual antics. And in his match with Lugar, Bulldog accused the larger bodybuilder of rubbing his nipples on him when Lugar tried chest-bumping him! He definitely would've had some great material for a rematch with a bulked-up Dominic.<br /><br />Speaking of Dominic, his match in the gold posers versus big sexy is one of my absolute favorites. The two really seemed to enjoy bearhugging each other (especially Big Sexy), and the gold trunks fit Dom like a glove. Dom was definitely at his most "Hulked-out" during that match, and I almost think he'd become TOO big by that point for Bulldog to handle. (But not too big for me!)<br /><br />To make it a fair fight, I'd love to see Bulldog at the size he was and in the tiny green and black posers he wore when he wrestled Mario and Lugar versus Dominic at the size he was and in the nearly identical tiny yellow and black posers he wore when he wrestled Python and Jeremy Walker. Evenly-matched contests in terms of size, strength, and gear are my #1 turn-on, as evidenced by my Brody vs. Ram fan fiction! :)<br /><br />- JSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010475850020053525.post-64851761430446022952018-12-13T05:53:17.429-06:002018-12-13T05:53:17.429-06:00That is an easy mistake.

I actually considered their match against each other for this run of older reviews.<br /><br />I loved Dom’s muscled up look, especially in those gold posers against Big Sexy. I did like his early matches where anything could happen, like losing to TAK of all people.<br /><br />My favorite Bulldog moment was actually the live show with Big Sexy because it sure seemed like they were having fun.AlexMiller72https://www.blogger.com/profile/04342817979573894992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010475850020053525.post-40081899973717707822018-12-12T23:35:29.364-06:002018-12-12T23:35:29.364-06:00My apologies: It was actually Big Sexy, Sebastian,...My apologies: It was actually Big Sexy, Sebastian, and BULLDOG who hazed Brock in "The Initiation". I'm not sure why I said Dominic -- although he and Bulldog were a lot alike, so it's easy to confuse them.<br /><br />I consider it one of Thunder's greatest missed opportunities that they never had a rematch between Bulldog and Dominic after they both muscled up. Both of them eventually got really swole and had similar preferences for wearing tiny posing trunks to show off their nearly identical stocky physiques, but their only match against each other was when they were both young and on the smaller side (and wore shorts) even though they competed for Thunder's concurrently for several years. Both were terrific performers, and I miss them a lot. I would love it if Thunder's could somehow make that rematch happen if they're both still in good shape.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010475850020053525.post-10362766571850391612018-12-12T20:22:32.444-06:002018-12-12T20:22:32.444-06:00Oh yeah, Impact squashed Mogly where this one feat...Oh yeah, Impact squashed Mogly where this one featured him in trouble quite a bit.

I’ve never heard of The Initiation video.

Impact was good, but I found Brock much more appealing. His physique wasn't nearly as ripped as Impact's, but he was proud of his "natural muscles" and confident in their strength. He wasn't about to back down from Impact's challenge and more than held his own. <br /><br />I think what I liked most about Brock was the expressions of intensity on his face whenever he had Impact subdued in a squeezing hold -- specifically his body scissors. Intense expressions by the aggressor are a real turn-on for me. And Brock referring to his biceps as his "Brock Ness Monsters" was inspired! :)<br /><br />I had big hopes for both competitors -- especially for Brock when he was "hazed" by Thunder's Arena legends Big Sexy, Sebastian, and Dominic in a video entitled "The Initiation". Impact's match against Z-Man was also really good. Unfortunately, both Brock and Impact ended up being flashes in the pan. Luckily there's always fresh meat at Thunders!<br /><br />- JSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
