More images of the agony and ecstasy from this bloody, homo-erotic match during the Wednesday 8/12 episode of AEW Dynamite. One moment, Moxley is trying to stomp Jack Perry's head in, and the next they are face-to-face like lovers. Of course, sicko Moxley rubs his own face against Perry's bloody flesh and even licks some blood off his arm to get a taste. (Earlier today I reposted another blogger's GIF of that blood-tasting moment.)

I swear I thought these horny freaks might be actually making out a couple times.

Damn ref, just let him Rest in Peace!

And is there any more intimate way to end a wrestling match than a Sleeper Hold??

I've always had a soft spot for you, Jack.

The final GIF shows Moxley licking the jungle-boy's blood off his arm, as Perry lies broken over the ringside barrier. Dude, you can probably ask for a towel, ya freak!

"Jungle" Jack Perry performed a really hot Crimson Mask scene with Jon Moxley during the August 12, 2026 episode of AEW ("Always Erotic Wresting".) Moxley came off as a hairy-chested, merciless brute with a sadistic bloodlust, while Jack Perry suffered and sold like the most lovable, tortured Babyface from the Good Old Days.

The claret started flowing after Moxley drove Perry's forehead into the corner post out at ringside (see above). Then the monster used every trick in the Heel playbook to increase his opponent's blood-loss.

The guys are in an elimination tournament, which raises the stakes and thereby justifies the Heel inflicting whatever cruel acts he needs to defeat his victim and remain in the tournament. Poor Jack Perry is a smaller, prettier guy, so his bloodiness comes off even more outrageous and unfair -- like vandalizing a beautiful painting. Or pissing on a rose garden. It just ain't right!

One of the most sexually suggestive poses had to be this Hairpull scene where Moxley mounted his boy-toy in a leglock, then stretched out that busted-open scalp by yanking back on the jungle-boy's long mane.

Thank you, Jack, for showing us your vulnerability; for agreeing to wear the Crimson Mask for us; for enduring this painful and humiliating abuse.

Can we get some Clorox wipes here at ringside?

Today is Sunday -- time for church! What is with the cross above the ring? Ashton Day and John Bonhart are possibly wrestling in a church. Or former church?

Hey, if I'm going to worship before any altar, let it have three ropes surrounding it and shirtless gods grappling in the center of it.

In his essay about the symbols and imagery used to convey meaning in pro wrestling, French philosopher Roland Barthes noted that the suffering in the ring often evokes the Passion (at least for Christians), with the saintly hero enduring outrageous violence and suffering for our sins. The wrestlers are tugging at our religious heartstrings by martyring our saint in the ring and making us watch with guilty, sinful pleasure.

The passion play in the wrestling ring, if done well, can therefore be just as soul-stirring, awe-inspiring, and redemptive as any profound religious experience.

This particular match further emphasizes those religious connotations with a literal cross above the ring, and a Jesusy looking Babyface!

Back in 2008, I posted the full article by Roland Barthes (in English) on my original Wrestling Arsenal website (along with some really hot images too, now that I'm reviewing these):

Here are a few mouth-watering photos of Michael Hayes that appeared in some 1980s Wrestle-porn magazines. The sort of magazines I used to keep guiltily hidden under my mattress, because the sight of these shirtless men in hot wrestling action gave me otherworldly feelings of excitement -- the first real arousal in my life.

I always thought this dude was the bomb. It was partly because of his fur-covered torso (which -- as a boney, pre-teen twink -- I greatly longed to have or to hold.) But it was mostly because of his flashy, peacocking arrogance -- always strutting, smiling, ripping his garments open to be sure we noticed his body, and always telling us how sexy he is.

Honestly, Hayes was maybe a 7 out of 10 in looks, but his cocky, kinda gay antics made him easily a 9.5 in my excited eyes.

I posted some galleries recently of Brendan Byers and Santiago Sandoval kicking Limey ass during their recent visit to England. I've been meaning to write about the beautiful wrestling gear they and their opponents are wearing for these matches: low-cut trunks in jewel tones with matching wrist-bands and bicep-bands.

The outfits are for sale from a new venture called "Suplex Society." I believe Santiago (and possibly Brendan) started this company, or at least they're generally promoting it.

For $49.00, you get one pair of trunks in your choice of color and size (Small, Medium, or Large) with matching wrist- and bicep-bands. Each color in the catalog represents a unique pro wrestling persona: Black = Heel (obviously), Pink = Jobber, White = Hero, Green = High-Flyer, etc.

So I decided to support my guys by purchasing a couple of their trunks myself. I think they look fantastic (at least on Santiago and Brendan!)

I ordered the white "Hero" trunks and the green "High-Flyer" trunks in size Large -- not that I'm much of a "high flyer" but the shiny emerald color caught my eye. And maybe, just maybe, these are the same exact pairs that Santiago wore when he modeled them for the promo pics!

I think the price is very reasonable for quality trunks, and the online shopping process was smooth as silk. I will have to let you know how I like these trunks after I receive them -- maybe after I try them out in some private bouts (is anybody near me free on Saturday? Or any day ending in "y"?) I can't promise I'll look as stunning as Santiago in them, but these trunks will surely be great additions to my gear collection.

Meanwhile, shop SuplexSocietyWear.com for all your wrestling trunk needs, and remember to support our wrestleporn producers.
