Rear Naked Review 2020 Part 2: Mikey's picks

-

 

Better late than never, right? lol

In my previous post and first part of my 2020 review, I shared what all of you wonderful KSW readers selected as your favorites in each category for the Knockout Awards. In this post I will give my choices for some of the categories, along with a few other ramblings.

Favorite Wrestler of 2020

KSW readers selected Gabe Steel
 
 
Favorite Heel of 2020

KSW readers selected Gabe Steel


Favorite Jobber of 2020

🌟It's a match! KSW readers also selected Joey McCoy

Favorite Debut of 2020

KSW readers selected Bull Barrett
 

Favorite Company of 2020

 
KSW readers selected Muscleboy Wrestling
 
 
Favorite Knockout of 2020 



So those are my selections of favorites from the year gone by. Interesting that I only sided with KSW readers in one category lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I know the pandemic put a squash on a lot of companies being able to film and wrestlers ability to travel. There are several guys I hope make a return this year that we haven't seen in quite a while. Dawson Delight, KARN, Viking, Nick Diesel, Tyson the Hammer, and Derrick Cole to name a few. I know some of these guys will probably never return, but I can hope lol. 
 
Most of all, I would love to see Kenny Star make a comeback this year! I can safely call him my favorite underground wrestler. Even in his absence from the scene, no other wrestler has been able claim that title with me

 

His UCW match against Derrick Cole is easily one of my favorite ring matches! (You can check out my review here.)
 
There are some other things I wanted to include in this post, but I think I will save it for a future post so I'm not just cramming a somewhat random collection of thoughts into one update. 
 
I have a couple of reviews coming this weekend and the following week, including my custom match from Weekend Wrestling which I believe is going to be released this weekend. I could be wrong but I know it's going to be coming out very soon. I'm also planning on reviewing Joey Cantrell vs Axel from UCW. I was super excited to see him pop back up on the website and he's looking great! You all know I love the cute punk next door type 😆
  
Before I depart, I do need to brag just a bit...I decided to take "treat yo self" to the next level and totally upgrade my gaming PC and set up.




It was an incredibly rotten and tough year. I deserve all of this lol.

Specs for fellow PC gaymers:

Intel i7 10700 - GeForce RTX 3080 - 16GB RAM 

I'm always down to play some Warzone and have my own Discord server. More than happy to make some new internet friends for gaming!

Unscripted: Hans Auslander vs Forrest Taylor

  I've subscribed to just a handful of OnlyFans creators since it started up back in 2016, but the amount of well known and fresh faces from underground wrestling creating accounts tempted me to check out more. Hans shared some pics from the latest match he dropped on his OF account with Forrest Taylor yesterday: Yeah ok. Sign me up! Here are the links to both of their OF accounts. Hans and Forrest have 4 matches together up on OF and they are all under 10 minutes, so I'm going to highlight all of them. 3 of the matches are on Forrest's account and all 4 can be found on Hans' account: Hans Auslander's OnlyFans Forrest Taylor's OnlyFans Their first match was posted on July 15th and the most recent on October 18th. Hans dominates Forrest in all but one of them. You can tell both guys are really committed to the jobber/heel roles they take in each match. Forrest just can't seem to keep that boner down either and I'm not complaining. Hans is a cocky fucker t

Brutal Brendan Byers vs Brody Merritt - Weekend Wrestling

Brody Merritt faces off against Weekend Wrestling's resident bad boy heel in one of the most anticipated underground debuts in recent memory. Brendan Byers vs Brody Merritt - Weekend Wrestling It's playoff season for Football jock Brody Merritt. "I know I'll win MVP this year" he says as he tosses around the pigskin he brought with him to the ring. He's feeling "confident" and "honorable"...but as we see time and time again, there's no room for honor inside the squared circle at Weekend Wrestling.  Who better to face the new recruit and test his in-ring values other than "Brutal" Brendan Byers. A nickname that has definitely been earned over the course of his wrestling career.  Brody could have taken his honor and wholesome ethics and left the ring, saving his first challenge for someone more in line with his morals, but he makes the mistake of issuing it to the brutal one. Like me, you probably had a feeling that football wo

Gabe Steel vs Kal Handsome - Weekend Wrestling

  Gabe Steel vs Kal Handsome - Weekend Wrestling I wanted to get this up last week but fell a little behind, and it looks like I'm not alone in losing track of time... You'd assume Kal would think twice about showing up late again after the beating he took at the hands of Roger Atlas in his last match at WW for the same reason. Unfortunately for Kal, no lessons were learned as he scrambles down to the ring to meet up with Gabe who is already ready and waiting. Kal is seated at ringside rushing to put his gear on. Personally, I love the red shorts he is always wearing each time he comes to the ring. Although they typically get stripped off (which I'm not complaining about) Kal is one of those guys that can look great in just about any battle attire. He manages to get at least his knee pads on before that trademark malicious grin starts to form across Gabe's face and he launches his attack on Kal. He pummels Kal in the back with his boot before dragging him into the ri
