Young Terry Frazier wears the uniform of the handsome young Face: white trunks and boots. Those spandex whitey-tighties really hug his male parts and steal the show — keeping you riveted even when the pace of the match lags.
Most big fat wrestlers hide their bulk with a body-suit or singlet, but not Mastiff. He is shirtless and proud in blue trunks, which are soaking wet in the front. I think the tailor needed at least 6 to 8 yards of blue spandex to completely cover that fat ass!
- Great camera work, focusing on Frazier’s vulnerability
- Tons of wedgies and bulging cock shots in those revealing white trunks
- The utter helplessness of the Face. As one viewer on YouTube described it: “Damn it…what’s that cute guy in the white trunks to do against that large fat pig?”
- Crotch-scooping Bodyslams @ 4:48 and 10:08
- Long-held “Ask Him!” Chinlock @ 9:39
- Powerslam into a Split-Leg Pin @ 11:33
- “Whoa — BIG body check. He certainly stuck that one in!“
- “I mean he’s using that weight advantage. Look at the SIZE — the back — of the man! He knows he needs to use POWER and STRENGTH against a guy like Terry Frazier.“
- “And the Clothesline, out of nowhere, RIIIIPS Frazier’s head off his shoulders.”
Psychology 101: This is the quintessential story of the Power Mismatch. The imbalance of strength is depicted several times when the poor little tyke tries to pick up that fat behemoth in a Body-Slam (little man strains his back muscles and then eats a Body-Slam himself) and later, a Suplex (the little man collapses like a house of cards under the big ox.) Here is how my reader Aaron described it:
“The crowd favourite hunk who at the beginning of the match hurts his back trying to lift the monster…and with the crowd behind him slowly gains more courage amidst the beatdown he’s receiving. My favourite part was at 9:25 when he attempts a suplex just to have the big beast fall right back onto his fit body. And just when you think near the end that Terry’s going to actually take it, your hopes (and his) are dashed by the sheer weight of the monster.”
While it’s easy (and fun!) to admire a well-built guy in trunks, you have to respect a fat guy wearing the same! Really though–poor Frazier.
I have been a MAJOR fan of Mastiff’s for years now, and have to say when he’s in the ring Punishing a man…as big as he may be….he is Poetry in motion. Being the Jobber I am, I can’t count the number of times I’ve thought of myself being in the ring against him. That thick chest…..Perfect for working a guy in a SideHeadlock..and his Thighs? Any type Headscissor would do…Thank You!
Beautiful coverage of this match man! Glad I could supply you with some quotes!
I love the doom, defeat and pain of Frazier
