Rear Naked Review 2019

-

As we come to the end of the year I decided to follow along with other bloggers and round up my favorites from 2019. This will be pretty to the point and I will only get descriptive with a handful of categories that require me to. I call them favorites instead of "best" because there are so many matches that came out this year that I didn't purchase that I'm sure could have easily made this list. Lets get to it:
Top 5 Fighters
Zack Reno - Gabe Steel - Young Ady - Tyson The Hammer - Dash Decker

Ones to watch in 2020

 Spotland has always been one of my favorites. With attractive fighters, great action, and very affordable prices, they have nowhere to go but up! This year Spotland brought the heat with several memorable matches. They have recently added new talent to their roster and overhauled their website as well. I'm very excited to see what the fellas have in store for us in 2020! I will be closely following them for sure!

 As I had mentioned in my review of Cody vs Dash, I'd been sleeping on 88Wrestling for far too long. 2019 was a great year for 88 and with their incredibly HOT roster of exclusive fighters, great ring action, and entertaining match themes 2020 looks to be even better!

Hunks Wrestling is another company that recently overhauled it's website. It's a bit easier to navigate but still a bit complicated. It is also primarily in Spanish. You will need to use Google Translate or another browser plug-in if you cannot read en español. They have released a string of very hot matches over the last few months, in particular Dark Jr. vs Arturo which was a very hot and erotic mat submission battle. If they keep these hot match-ups coming and do some tweaking on the website there is no reason they shouldn't have a very successful 2020!


 Well, those are my thoughts. Certainly not all of them, but I just couldn't cram everything into one post! What are some of your thoughts? Who would you have selected for some of the categories?

    I would have put also Steve Mason (hunkswrestling) in the section Favorite jobber, in matches vs Arturo and Gabe Steel he suffers very well and is really a sexy wrestler

    I agree with 88W being one to watch. They improved a lot in 2019, hopefully that continues this year.

Brody Merritt vs Scrappy - Weekend Wrestling

  Brody Merritt vs Scrappy - Weekend Wrestling I took a break from the blog for a while. No reason in particular, just wasn't in the mood to write. When I noticed Weekend Wrestling's latest release, I knew it'd be the perfect match to break me out of my mid-winter hibernation! Uh oh. Looks like Scrappy has gotten all caught up in some type of cult, and seems to be its apparent leader. I'm not sure who the two in the blue and red are. The brief glimpse of a calf tattoo on the cultist in blue wasn't much to go off of. We will see if these two run any interference later in the match.  Pre-match, good guy Brody does his best to talk Scrappy out of his newfound malevolent ways...but it doesn't go so well and Brody, through a defeat, may become Scrappy's newest follower 😮 Although resilient, Brody has been the fall guy a vast majority of his time spent in the Weekend Wrestling ring. If he wants to shake his reputation of being the rosters resident hunky jobber, a

Percy Austin vs Forrest Taylor - Wrestle Studs

  Wrestle Studs came out of nowhere, at least for me. I stumbled across the Twitter/X account late last week. Wrestle Studs is an offshoot of Muscleboy Wrestling, with a clear focus on pro-style matches as opposed to MBW's steamy content. The roster as of now is split 50/50 between familiar underground faces and guys from the indies. You'll probably recognize several of the new faces if you are an indie wrestling fan in general. We've seen some of the bigger underground companies have a side-project that stems from the original, and they usually just end up getting absorbed back into the main website. If it sticks to the pro-style content, Wrestle Studs has a lot of great potential to stand up on it's own and could even attract other wrestlers that might shy away from the more bluntly erotic mat matches on MBW.

Dax Carter vs Joey McCoy - Muscleboy Wrestling

  I've never had any particular affinity for big vs little matches, but Joey McCoy has become a favorite of mine at MBW and I know a lot of guys really love size mismatches in a fight. So, I decided to take a look at Dax Carter vs Joey McCoy from the latest Muscleboy catalog. Dax Carter vs Joey McCoy - Muscleboy Wrestling   Even Dax has a hard time believing that Joey here is who he is scheduled to wrestle with on Muscleboy's iconic orange mats. This has all the signs of a mismatch squash with poor Joey at the receiving end. Fortunately for him, Dax takes just a little bit too long talking to the camera about his confusion and Joey takes full advantage. I'm so glad this is happening. It seems like many of the matches I've been watching lately have been one sided battles. While I love a good squash, it was starting to drift into the "too much of a good thing" realm and also becoming a bit boring for me personally. Watching Joey pummel, twist, and bend a man wh
