Nick Justice vs Kayden Alexander (W4H, 2017)

It begins with Kayden strapped to an X-Cross.  Kayden isn't concerned though, he has a smile on his face. Nick enters and is left aghast when Kayden calls him "an old fart." Kayden continues to taunt Nick. "You're like what? 50?" Nick responds with a big slap to the chest but Kayden is defiant. "Is that all you got, bitch?" Nick pulls out a bottle of baby oil out of his pants, lathers up his hand and gives Kayden a big chop. The chop hurt but Kayden liked it. "Harder", he said. Kayden remained defiant throughout the match. No matter how much punishment Nick dished out, it was never enough. I loved this match . True twinks are hard to find in underground wrestling and none are as spunky as Kayden. Nick contrasts his serious wrestling skills with an over the top performance, which is very entertaining.

Sting vs Big Van Vader: Part 3 (WCW, 1992)

At the end of last post, Sting was down for the mat after Vader squashed him with a couple elbowdrops. Vader continued his domination with a big splash. Vader went for a pin but Sting spun out. Vader followed with a lifting choke and Sting's own finisher, the Scorpion Death Lock. Sting was trapped for a long time but eventually muscled out of it. Sting was too weak to follow up though and Vader resumed control with a big powerslam. Sting kicked out again. Sting slumped in the corner and Vader wound for a punch but Sting blocked it and came back with a flurry of his own. Sting ran the ropes and knocked Vader down with a flip kick. Now, Sting is the one in control. Does he have enough energy to finish off Vader? Tune in next time for the conclusion.

Sting vs Big Van Vader: Part 2 (WCW, 1992)

At the end of the last post, Sting poked Vader in the eye, which had him reeling. Sting followed up with big roundhouse punches, a couple of dropkicks and a suplex.   Sting and Vader traded the advantage a couple times until Sting went for a small package. Vader kicked out, rolled out of the ring and had another conference with Harley Race. Vader returned to the ring and whipped Sting into the ropes. Vader ducked for a backdrop but Sting tried to counter with a sunset flip, which Vader countered with a sitdown splash. Vader basked in the moment, posing for the crowd as Sting laid helplessly on the mat. Vader followed up with a couple huge elbowdrops. Sting is in big trouble now. Can Vader crush Sting to win the WCW Title or can Sting turn things around to hold on? Tune in next time.

Sting vs Big Van Vader: Part 1 (WCW, 1992)

Most serious fans would know but for those who don't, Leon "Vader" White passed away last week. To celebrate Vader's career, I'll look at one his best and most significant matches. This is his match for Sting's WCW World Title in July 1992. The opening 5 minutes of this match had a very old school feel, seeming more like the early 80's than 90's. After the introductions, Vader and Sting had a staredown and talked trash. Vader forced Sting to the corner. Sting offered a clean break but Vader hammered him with forearms and punches. Vader forced Sting to the opposite corner and rocked him with more punches. Sting rolled out of the ring to shake it off. When Sting returned, Vader put Sting in a headlock, which Sting countered with a back suplex. Sting followed with a running clothesline, knocking Vader out of the ring. After some words of encouragement from his manager, Harley Race, Vader returned to the ring. Vader challenged ...

Cal Bennett vs Guido Genatto (W4H, 2018)

Cal is cool and cocky. He considers himself the new stud at Wrestler4Hire. After a couple short promos by both guys, we see Cal posing in the ring. Guido comes in and is pissed from the start. "What the fuck do you know about wrestling?", asks Guido. "Do you even know how to fuckin' lock up?" Cal says "Let's lock up then." Guido kicks Cal in the gut instead. Cal slumps in the corner, wide open for Guido to continue pounding his abs with punches and kicks. Guido continues to talk trash, "(You're) runnin' around here, thinking you're the new king shit. I don't think so!" Guido takes Cal down and applies a stomach claw, then drives his fist into Cal's abs for a long time. Guido follows that up with a stomp. Guido is relentless, constantly attacking Cal's abs throughout the match. Cal is completely at Guido's mercy, unfortunately for him, Guido has none. If you...
