Cold Hard Cash

Cash Kellogg vs Lobo Gris, Catalog 25 - Choke Him Out! (MuscleBoy Wrestling)

Cash Kellogg has an archetypally masculine physique. Hairy pecs, broad shoulders, a torso that narrows down deliciously. Five-eleven, 190#, Cash is built solid as a cannonball. Lobo is, of course, adorable, somewhat lighter than his opponent, yet gifted with pluck. Both men joined the MuscleBoy roster two catalogs ago - this is Lobo's third match, Cash's second. Both have experience at other wrestling sites. Both are so charismatic that I find it hard to pick a side.

The edge, however slight, goes to Kellogg. He lacks Lobo's boyish charms, but he triggers my lust in ways Lobo does not. He strikes the occasional pose, but by and large his focus is on giving Lobo as hard a time as possible. His chiseled good looks pretty much confine him to the role of heel (just as Lobo's empathetic eyes and curly locks suggest he can't be anything other than a babyface). Cash is an archetypal bully - square-jawed with dead eyes and a killer bod. He's a henchman in search of a criminal mastermind.

Even though the match lacks the intensity of Nick Flex's recent fight with Blake Hunter or Roger Atlas's evisceration of Tyson Carter, it makes effective use of Cash and Lobo's skillsets, and teases us with a rip-and-strip fight that draws our attention to the wrestlers' sex appeal but remains well within a PG-13 standard of propriety. The battle provides more back-and-forth turns than the previously mentioned contests, with minimal clues to its ending, involving a realistic choke and appetizing muscle poses.
