Match 1
Mario Foccia vs. Tory Stevens
Mario (in the Black Speedo's) is much shorter than Tory (in the Red Speedo's). But Mario is a "little powerhouse", as you will see immediately. He uses his power on an unsuspecting Tory. But don't sell Tory short, he knows how to use his really long legs, and he does. Mario has a hard time, even with his incredible strength, handling the long,sinewy legs of Tory.
After a tough match, and multiple submissions, Mario and Tory became great friends. They will obviously be doing a lot of wrestling. Maybe we can even get a tag-team out of them.
Match 2
Patrick Donovan vs. Todd Lemsky
Patrick (in the Black Speedo's) is long and strong with a lot of wrestling experience. Todd (in spandex bike shorts), visiting from DC, had more of a match than he expected from Patrick. Todd had to use all his strength and talent just to get Patrick in any compromising position.
We were surprised when Todd finally got Patrick to "give up". But that wasn't the end of it. It was get even time, and Patrick did. He truly showed Todd what it means to be a leg wrestler. After multiple submissions, Patrick and Todd both know who the better wrestler is.
Match 3
Mike Adams vs. Vinny Reno
Mike (in the striped Blue Speedo's) and Vinny (in the Green Speedo's) both wrestled in High School and College. Both are just about as tough as they come, love a good fight, and are trained to be winners, not losers.This match is aggressive and rough. Their collegiate training is evident throughout the match.
The use of multiple holds will make you wonder what hold is going to make someone give. They wrestled only two submission matches before they were both exhausted.Each match lasted about 15 minutes of grueling wrestling. Both immediately agreed to a rematch and NHB-Battle is in the process of setting up that match. Be ready to see tough muscular bodies tearing each other apart.
Match 4
Brian Post vs. Ian Calley
Brian, with blond hair and blue eyes (definitely model looks), was visiting NYC from Baltimore when he asked NHB-Battle for a wrestling opponent.
Ian, a NYC businessman, had very little wrestling experience but was up for a good match and workout. Both men wrestled cautiously at first, not knowing what to expect from each other. That didn't last too long. Brian was the first to begin to get aggressive. You could tell Brian wanted to kick some NYC butt on his trip up from Baltimore.
Ian was overwhelmed at first and it took him a while to counter the strength and moves of his Baltimore opponent. Everyone knows, NYC doesn't like to lose at anything. Brian wrestled like he wanted to beat the whole city. Believe it or not, these two guys left as friends and went out for a beer together.
