Tiger Fights Leopard

Tiger vs Leopard, Kid Brother 5 (Black Wrestling Network)

Both Tiger and Leopard are compellingly handsome and naturally aggressive. The larger frame story is that Leopard rescues his brother Tiger from bondage, but then scolds him for his involvement and repeated debasement in the Freak Show. When Leopard dares to say, "I'm a better son than you are," Tiger, the BWN lightweight champ, gets up and in his face. Leopard tugs off his street clothes, and the fight is on. 

Apart from the frame story, the competition consists of legit mat grappling, occasionally embellished with the theatrics typical of underground wrestling. Tiger (in black, white, and pink briefs) and Leopard (in blue) are well matched in build and weight, and though Leopard, in his BWN debut, comes off as camera shy (on occasion a nervous smile irresistibly flashes across his face), the 42-minute battle gains momentum and intensity. (You may recognize Tiger from his bout with Chris Cannon at MuscleBoy in 2017.) 

Within five minutes, beads of sweat are visible on Leopard's forehead in a closeup shot. A few minutes later, both streamlined bodies are shiny as patent leather. An array of body locks and cradle holds dominate the action, as would be typical of a sibling rivalry brought to a head. The back and forth is fiercely dramatic without losing its edge as bona fide mat grappling, climaxing in a sopping-wet camel-clutch submission and the victor stepping on his brother's chest in a show of dominance.
