Babyface Bash 3

Manny Mendez vs Dio Characi, Babyface Bash 3 (BG East)

Having soundly disposed of Stevie Suave in Muscle Rookies 2, Manny Mendez turns his sites towards Brazil's prince-charming Dio Characi, equal in height but minus the 67 pounds needed to bump up against Mendez's iron muscles. 

Mendez looks like he could own a gym - or maybe swallow a gym. Dio's advantage is his hypnotic eyes and silky skin, which have conquered many opponents. But will they work against Mendez?

The strongman flexes his biceps and tells Dio "This is what a man looks like." Dio swoops in with an elbow slam to the chest. He turns backflips to drive his elbow in a second time. A forearm smash to the back drives Manny face down on the mat. "I'm very athletic," Dio brags and bends Manny in a bow-and-arrow hold. 

But Dio pushes his luck, and Manny bucks loose. 

The next 23 minutes are nothing but pain and humiliation for Characi. Manny bends him like pipe cleaners, presses his hands on either side of Dio's skull, damn near cracking it like an egg, and snaps his spine in an Argentine backbreaker rack. Clearly, Manny Mendez is somebody you don't mess with.

And from the look of things, Characi won't be messing with anybody for a long, long time.
