Big Man in Trouble!

Well it seems like it's been a while, but I have a new match up on BG East! Yes my dear readers, they've released another one! The match features a big muscle ape who I recruited and who means a lot to me, Mr. Sam Sellers!

Now if you're a loyal reader of this blog, you'll remember that a little while ago, I posted some pics of this big stud who I get the pleasure of taking down in my latest match. He's been waiting a long time to see his match up on the website and now, finally, he can actually back up his claims to having wrestled for BG East on his wrestling profiles online! To think that barely a few years ago, he was a closeted guy and now, he's joining the ranks of the BG stars! I'm so proud of him! He's like my BG baby :P

Hopefully you guys like him as much as I do! To get to the match, click on the picture in the sidebar on the right side of the screen and you'll be taken to the BG website :) Watch the match, tell me what you think, tell Sam what you think! Who should he take on next?

Speaking of that, I'm starting to use my Google+ profile a bit more than before and discovered a nifty polling feature on it. I'm testing it out right now to see if it works well. Seems to be good so far! Look me up on Google+ and go vote in the poll of who I should take on next!

Boom!

Happy New Year to all of you my dear readers! Yeah, I know I'm a bit late. I've been spending lots of time with my family and doing lots of time at the gym as well! I've gone up to 190lbs in the past few weeks, the heaviest I've ever been! To some of you this may seem odd but I'm actually trying to put on some muscle so I'm ecstatic ;) The hardest part for me when I work out is always putting on more size. I guess my metabolism doesn't want me to gain...oh well. There is a possibility that some of the gain is "holiday weight" which is why I'm trying to add in a little mix of cardio to my routine to slim myself down a tad in the mid section.

Speaking of numbers, my match total for 2014 ended up being 59! That's 59 matches that I've had with guys in the past year! That averages out to almost 5 matches a month, not too bad I think! I won't be reprising the counting ticker that I had this past year for 2015 but needless to say that I'm gonna strive to beat my own record on that front! Always aim for more if and when it's possible!

In other news, I'm still looking for work. In the meantime I've started to take a course in Japanese! Soon I'll be a trilingual wrestler! Of course, as some of you already know, I'm fluent in French given the fact that I live in Montreal. Hopefully, in not too much time, I'll make you all give up in Japanese...then French...then English! Never forget to train your brain! It just makes a hot body even sexier when you know how to talk about anything and everything ;)

From the Darkness of Winter...

That time of year is upon us again! Yes, it's the solstice! The beginning of winter but the return of longer days at the same time! Of course, this all coincides with Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, Festivus, etc. so there's a reason to be happy and festive for just about everyone.

For me, this year is going to be a little different from the past ones. For the first time in...well...ever...I'm unemployed at Christmas time! Don't worry BG fans, I'm not saying that I'm not wrestling anymore, but rather my "day job" has come to an end. It may be a surprise to some, though hopefully not too much of a surprise, that 99.9% of wrestlers at BG have different day jobs and careers! Granted wrestling full-time for a stable salary would be amazing it's not actually possible for most of us. We have bills, rents, mortgages and all kinds of other things to pay for all the time.

That being said,one can always dream of that possibility :P

On the plus side, I have a niece who I'm going to spend lots of time with over the holidays and a family who I'll get to visit and enjoy without having to worry about rushing back to work after a day or two.  As my best friend always tells me, I seem to be an eternal optimist and always believe that things always end up working out just fine in the end. For now, I'm just going to enjoy the break from the routine and maybe get a few more matches in before the end of the year ;)

So to all of you, my dear readers, have safe, fun and happy holidays! All the best to you and may all your dreams come true in the New Year! :)

Guess Again!

I've been a cheeky little monkey of late on apps! As a gay man, of course, I have a couple of apps on my phone that I use to connect with my local community. Of course, we're talking about apps like Grindr, Scruff, Hornet, etc. Needless to say, I don't need to inform you guys about what these apps are for ;) Unfortunately, there are no such sure-fire apps taht exist for us in the wrestling community. Though it is possible to write some lengthy profile to describe one's passion for wrestling with other guys, there are quicker and easier ways to achieve the same result. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. If you've kept up with this blog, you know I'm not one to be short on them! In the app-centered, smartphone-world of today though, instant recognition leads to more attention and better results when seeking something specific...

Now, anyone who know BG and the world of gay wrestling knows that there are a few "Meccas" that exist. One can spot the BG ring in Pembroke from any angle and know without a doubt, where they are looking at. That's a given. I decided to toy around with this idea recently on these apps. Last time I was at BG HQ, I snapped a few quick selfies in the ring while awaiting my match with Chace LaChance. I figured it'd be interesting to see if anyone could spot the locale I was in and put it all together. So I posted my seflie as my new profile pic on these apps with an accompanying tag line "If you recognize exactly where I am, you're ten steps ahead of everyone else!" The responses have been entertaining to say the least!

A good number of guys ignore the text of course, they haplessly write me generic messages or share their unsolicited dick/ass pics. There are those, however, who venture a guess or two about where I am. Now of course since the pic is cropped in a bit, most of what the guys see in thumbnails isn't the full head-to-toe Monaco! Somehow though, I've gotten such guesses as "ballet studio", "your bedroom", "some sort of figurine museum", "yoga studio" and so on... Some guys manage to actually use their eyes and see the ring ropes and venture the guess of "boxing ring" or "boxing/muay thai gym" or something of the like.

Only a handful of men get it right and spot the BG ring in a flash and launch into their passion about wrestling. Those lucky few get a much more animated response from me (in general, I do still have my likes and dislikes after all!) and have managed to spot something I used to only dream about way back before I started at BG: a real, live, BG East wrestler who is willing to chat about what he does ;)

Tag Me In!

Winter is well under way here in Montreal! It's only November and it's pretty chilly! Then again, it seems that all of North America is under the grip of yet another "arctic blast" which is becoming the new norm for us in the winter. With winter comes the cold, flu and other nasty bugs. I was recently ill with a pretty bad case of food poisoning myself (3 days in hospital, lots of nasty symptoms but it finally ended). On the plus side, here in Canada, all my doctors and hospital stay which would set my American friends into a very bad financial spot cost nothing here! Advantages of being in a country with public healthcare...

Being sick and having to deal with entire teams of doctors got me thinking about teams in general and specifically tag teams! Yes tag teams in wrestling are always a huge thing. Why simply watch 2 wrestlers go at it when you could be watching 4? Or 6! Or 8! Tag matches allow wrestling fans to see multiple different pairings of wrestlers within the same match. I've always seen it as multiple one-on-one micro-matches bundled up into one big match.

All this got me thinking about what kind of tag team I could be in one day. Who would make a great partner? Who would I want to take on? Naturally, some names came to mind...

 

An easy choice for me would be my sexy friend Damien Rush. This guy is a stud-supreme in my eyes. The moment we met and had our match at BG, there was an instant kind of chemistry and connection I felt right away. This guy is as muscled as he is sweet (on the outside of the ring at least) and would be a killer companion to take on other foes. He's definitely my number one choice on the list of guys I'd tag with any time!

 

Another very good choice would be my bud "The Mastodon" Morgan Cruise! Also a hairy stud, I could see us taking on some twinky tag team and showing them who's boss. Our combined power and skills would make most little jobber teams fall apart and be easy pickings for the 1-2-3 (with both of us flexing big double bicep poses over them).

 

I've also had a suggested partner from a fan that wasn't on my short list but also sounds like a fun and sexy guy: Darius. Though we've talked on many occasions about having a match, we still have yet to meet. I've recently read that he's got himself a tag partner though, another sexy stud named "Frank". Perhaps they'd make good opponents for me and Damien or Morgan :)

So what do you think my dear readers? Who would YOU see me as a tag team with? Could it even be you? Who would I match up against? Let me know here, on twitter or by e-mail! You never know, could make it a reality some day ;)

Fall Fever!

It's been a busy few months my dear readers! I've had quite a busy schedule running around for work and play! Indeed, since my last post on my buddies' favorite drinks, the seasons have changed drastically here in Montreal. A fairly mild summer has given way to a much cooler fall. Regardless of the weather, there's been a lot going on in the world of Monaco...starting a little while back in the late summer.

Just after labor day, I made a little venture down to the states to visit the dastardly duo of Morgan Cruise and Damien Rush (why these sweethearts put up with my constant visits is nothing short of a miracle). After a few days of chilling with them and having lots of fun (and drinks), I made a quick stopover at BG HQ for a little match with...Chace Lachance! Now guys, let me tell you. He has quite the body. He's essentially an anatomy textbook of muscles that looks like any pose he takes is camera-worthy. As much as I'd like to tantalize you with details about the match, I'll keep my cards close to my chest for now. The only thing I'll say is that it took place in the infamous "wrestle shack" and that Kid Vicious thought the ending was very hot ;)

After my quick little Boston venture, I journeyed home for a few days so that I could...become an uncle! Yes, I am not an only child! My sister gave birth to my new niece! Both are well and super happy. Now I can officially make my opponents say "uncle" in a submission and make it actually mean something!

Nearly 24 hours after she was born, I was already bound for the west coast to return the visit of my friend Sean in San Francisco/Sacramento. You'll remember Sean from my post from last year when he came to see me in Montreal. He was a most gracious host and fun wrestling buddy on the west side of the continent. We rumbled often and sometimes invited others over for a little bit of round robin wrestling. Though unfortunately some of the matches lined up cancelled at the last minute, those that did show up had a great time! 

After that, it was back to my hometown and business as usual here. It's been a few weeks of catching up on things that were pushed aside by my travels and, needless to say, I couldn't forget about my readers! So hopefully this catches you up on why the blog was somewhat silent of late. Rest assured, I have some more posts to make in the near future so keep an eye out for the next one which should be up shortly ;)

Hey Good Looking! Can I Buy You A Drink?

Summertime is in full swing here in Montreal! The city is full of stuff to see and do. Numerous festivals and tourists have taken over the city and people here are doing one of their favorite things to do in the summer: drink! If you've ever been to Montreal you'd know that we like our evenings to be nice and liquored up when we go out. Not that we're drunks, we just really enjoy our alcohol...sometimes a lot :P My recent adventures south-of-the-border got me thinking about my BG brethren and the numerous times we've shared a glass, bottle or pitcher of something. So I figured I'd compile a list of my BG boys' favorite drinks to enjoy during nights out on the town.

Keep in mind, if ever you spot us out and about, this drinking guide to the BG boyz may be a good way to get yourself noticed :)

If you're trying to get the attention of my buddy, trainer and masseur (yes he just got his certification) Alain LeClair, you're a bit out of luck. Unfortunately, he has a fair deal of stomach issues that mean he has a lot of trouble dealing with alcohol. Your best chance with him is to get him a nice tall glass of water and complement him on his nearly 18 inch biceps ;)

 

 

If slimmer fare and six pack abs are your kind of thing, look no further than Skip Vance. Though he may be smaller than most guys who'd approach him, he can drink with t

he best of them! You'll need to whip out your best Patron to satisfy his taste-buds!

If a compact, muscle-bound hunk is your idea of a good time, Morgan Cruise is happy to oblige. Beware though! This little brute like his drinks surprisingly sweet! A nice Piña Colada or a flute of Champagne will get this beast on your side. You just may avoid a beat-down that way ;) But do you want to? :P

In the no-fuss category, newcomer Ty Alexander is easily satisfied with "whatever's cheap"! Beer will do the trick but if you happen to catch him poolside, he's more than happy to indulge in a nice margarita. Then again who wouldn't? Plus, you'd be poolside with Ty Alexander! Speedos with that drink?

If you want your guy tough as nails with a lot of attitude, the elusive Hawk Rodman is your match. Give him a nice solid vodka and, if he's feeling particularly festive, add a splash of orange juice in there for good measure. try to keep up with him at your own peril as this guy can hold his drinks well!

Sticking in the tough-slim-guy category, Ethan Axel Andrews will be more than happy to share a nice beer with you. He prefers new and different craft beers though, so try and get him something original instead of your every-day corner-store cases of 24! 

 

Sebastian Rios enjoys his  Malibu rum mixed with cranberry juice. Granted, not sure how much he can take before losing his senses...he is a small guy and, when replying to my question, described Malibu as being a Canadian rum. Perhaps, he was sipping some while writing because Malibu isn't remotely Canadian...lol

 

If all-that-and-a-bag-of-chips kind of guys grab your attention, Damien Rush is definitely your man! This gorgeous piece of man also has complex tastes. Though partial to Piña Coladas, he also enjoys his long island iced teas and something called "scorebook bowls" which I've googled and can't figure out for the life of me...there's your conversation starter gentlemen!

 

 

And finally, when it comes to me, I'm very versatile with my drink selections :) Though a nice blond beer will be a standard drink, I'm just as happy with mixed drinks containing rum or vodka. If it's summer, a nice pitcher of sangria is ideal. In winter, cuddle up with a glass of Port!

On that note, happy drinking games to you all! And may the odds be ever in your favor ;) Cheers!
