Review: Austin Tyler vs. Jesse Zane (Muscleboy Wrestling)

It's always exciting to see a favorite underground wrestler appear somewhere new. It doesn't always work out well, but that doesn't mean it's not exciting. In this case, I get to check out Austin Tyler at a third location. I've enjoyed him at UCW and Wrestler4Hire, so Muscleboy Wrestling can make it a trifecta, if Austin Tyler vs. Jesse Zane delivers.

It's Austin's debut at Muscleboy Wrestling

Review: Ty Alexander vs. Austin Cooper (BGEast)

Ty: "Austin Cooper? I'm not impressed. I thought you'd be taller." 

Austin: "Yeah? I thought you'd be smarter."

Ty Alexander got his first Spotlight on this latest BGEast catalogue. I figured I'd eventually check out all three matches, so I OTA'ed it. This compilation runs through three different Ty's - early, middle and recent. He's got one superstar opponent and two far less famous dudes with only five total matches between them.

I decided to start with the second match, which is obviously the oldest of the three. It features the superstar - THE Austin Cooper. I didn't choose this because it's Austin, though. I chose it because I figured chronological order was the best way for me to experience this Spotlight, even if BGEast put it in a different order.

Even in this early match, Ty has his cocky attitude.

Review: Steel vs. Cason with Scrappy (Thunders Arena)

I'm not even go to try to not spoil Steel vs. Cason with Scrappy from Thunders Arena. By the end of this post, you'll know who wins. This decision is partly because it'll be obvious from any pics I choose, but mainly because I don't think it's actually important. This video is more about the journey than the destination. It's a light-hearted muscle romp that quickly strays from any idea of a serious competitive battle.

It's Muscle-mania with plenty of surprises.

Review: Cason vs. Joey King/Brute (Thunders Arena)

I expected to review Cason vs. Joey King and Cason vs. Brute separately, but after watching the videos, I found that I had to do them together. Why? Because they're basically the same video. Beat for beat, they have extremely similar pacing, action and storylines.

I enjoyed Cason's first ring matches and have a preference? Will you enjoy them or have a preference? I'll try to help you figure that out with a couple of simple questions. Which pro do you like more. Who do you want to see suffer more - Cason or the pro?

I'm going to go out on a limb here ...
Cason has one of Thunders best bodies EVER.

Review: Duke Russo vs. Apollo 2 (Movimus)

It's a bit of deja vu as March starts off in similar fashion as February with a Movimus re-match here and a couple of Cason match reviews following on Tuesday and Thursday.

One month ago, Duke Russo showed rookie Apollo some moves then hit the mats with him. Now, we've got Duke Russo vs. Apollo II, the re-match. Has the new muscleman learned enough to challenge the reigning stud of Movimus?

Has Duke taught Apollo too well?

Marco News.

I've said before that I view my role as a blogger as more informational than promotional. I received an email from Marco asking for some promotion, but I think it's valuable information for my readers, too. And so, I'm sharing it. In this fast-paced 24-hour news world, there's no longer any responsibility to vet things or actually investigate, so I haven't.

I know some of you are BIG Marco fans from his work at Thunders Arena and Wrestler4Hire. I've posted about 13 of his matches, included him in Battle of the Wrestling Stars 2, and he was runner-up for my Second Look Cavey this year. My first review of him (here) is still one of my biggest reviews ever.

Marco x 2 was a huge hit.

I'm sure that most of you know that he has "retired". However, it turns out that he's "retired" in the classic pro wrestling sense. That is, he's just moved on to something else. Here's the email I received, unedited, in its entirety.

Good morning! It’s Marco from Thunders. I just started my own personal site Customvideostudio.com and was wondering if you wouldn’t mind talking about it on your blog. I won’t be wrestling for any more company’s so it is the only way to get any new videos of me. I also have a place for private wrestling matches there. I’ve decided to start the site to stay exclusive to my own content. The videos can include me or other guys. It can be other no nude custom content as well. Not limited to wrestling and flexing. The difference with my videos compared to other studios:
Faster turn around time: two weeks tops if has other guys in it
Videos WILL NOT be resold like other sites do. If someone is paying a premium précis I believe they should be the sole owner. Custom scripts will be done accurately. Not over looking any small details.
If you can do a post on this I’d greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

And so, now you know what I know. This is not an ad or any kind of endorsement. I don't know how the site will work, if it will work or anything more than what you read. I just figured that it was something folks would want to see.

I know a lot of you like checking Marco out.
