Here's where I get to rant, rave, and let you know what might be interesting to see in a wrestling videos. Why not include them with the companies mentioned? Because I don't want readers to confuse what the company actually offers with what I'd like to see. Also, I don't think it's fair to do an informative listing on a company and then put a minor gripe at the bottom of the page.


• General Company Suggestions •

Pay Sites - If you buy a video you should get access to all areas of the company's pay site. The only exception would be long, extensive video clips. Can-Am has the right idea. Buy one video and you get access for one full year.

• Video Clips - Use Quicktime. Yes, Real Media and Windows Media may take up less room. But the quality and functionality of the files aren't up to snuff. Anyone who has tried to fast forward/rewind a Quicktime file knows how convenient they really are. Also, RM/WM are notorious for their lack of support for the Macintosh. As of this writing, Apple users are still using WMPlayer 7 even though version 9 is available for the PC. On the other hand, Quicktime updates have continually been released for both platforms on a timely basis.

Photo Sets - Any company that has put out large groups of photos, like BG Enterprises, BG East, Can-Am, etc... How about putting CD or DVDs out with these collections. You could actually make them digital, searchable catalogs. It would especially be great if the old AMG material could be archived in this way.

Previews - Fill those tapes up! 2 hour tapes should have two hours of material on them. If that means filling the rest up with previews then great. There have been many times when a preview has been the deciding factor in whether I was interested in buying a tape or not. Sometimes pictures aren't good enough for someone to make a decision.

Updates - Even if you don't have anything new, please post an update at least once a month. This way your customers know you're still around and thinking about them.

• Year In Review - This could be the ultimate erotic wrestling fund raiser! Let's use BG Enterprises, BG East, Can-Am and BWN as examples...Each year the wrestling companies would submit a match to be included on a tape which would be sold by all three companies. 100% of the money would then go to AIDS research or some other charity. Four companies per tape would mean each company would have 30 minutes of time. They could use that time for one or two matches and use the rest for previews. What's great about this idea is that any number of companies could do it. And every year you could have the same combination of companies or different ones.

Each year there would be a due date where the companies would submit their material. Any established wrestling company would be able to submit matches. After all the submissions are in, a random drawing would decide which companies go on which tape and in what order. This way it doesn't end up with the larger companies on one tape and the younger ones on another.

The tapes would have similar box designs so they'd be consistent from year to year. The only change, of course, would be the year and the images on the boxes.

This originally started as a BGEast vs BGWest (Enterprises) idea. (This pre-dates the cross country 'rap wars' concept by several years. Damn, I should have copyrighted it. *snicker*)


• Individual Company Suggestions •

AMG - The new double density DVDs could become the standard in less than two years. These discs can hold 8.5 gig of information or 4 hours of video. This would be the perfect chance for AMG's extensive catalog to finally make it into the digital age. (Especially if the 8.5 gigs consisted of photos, slides, and catalog pages from their massive library.)

• HBWL - How about a 'seniors' division for guys in their early to mid 20's. You've got a great concept going. But it would be interesting to see men more muscular men being put into the same circumstances.

PAPW - According to your site, the only American payment you'll take is PayPal. Please consider using International Postal Money Orders. IPMOs can be bought at American post offices and cashed at many foreign post offices. (And vice versa). The customer is charged about $4 to buy one but it costs nothing to cash them. This is much cheaper than many international bank cheques and less intimidating than sending money over the net.


• Venue Ideas •

MatMist Room - Imagine a mat room with fire suppression nozzles in the ceiling. But they aren't the regular kind. These are the ones used in rooms which have lots of electronics. Instead of drenching the room they spray a slow mist. The floor would be slightly slanted with grooves so the build up of water would be below the mats and go toward the drain in the middle of the room. This would give the wrestlers a nice continual coating of water.

The Hot Box - A small racket ball type room with those thick Plexiglas walls. It should be about the size of a wrestling ring or less. That way the guys have more of a chance of pushing their bodies into the walls. You could also have a Plexiglas bottom so cameras could be below. Completely enclosed, holes would be along the top sides so the walls won't fog up. (And a tight seal will make sure it heats up more.)


• Match Ideas •

Six Man Stud Session - Two teams of three men. Each man on a team has a different designation. (1) Is the wrestler, (2) Is the beater, and (3) is the stroker. The wrestlers go at it like a regular submission match. The beaters can only hit the wrestlers lightly with continual, distracting blows. (Enough to piss the person off but not major, hard hits.) The stroker can only fondle the crotch, pinch the nipples, and do anything else to sexually arouse the wrestler. (And yes, he can use lubricant!) Both beaters and strokers can pull the wrestler off his team mate but can not put him in any holds or hold him for an extended period of time. So, what you have are two wrestlers trying for a submission while being triple teamed.

Even though the beaters and the strokers can't wrestle the wrestler, they can wrestle each other. If one of them gets a submission then the loser is out of the match. This means it would be 3-against-2. So let's say a stroker is eliminated. This would mean the beater would become and beater and a stroker. But since he was originally a beater he can only wrestle the other beater. Meaning: the stroker on the other team is free and clear to do his dirty work until a beater or stroker from the other team is eliminated. Then you' d have two guys who were both beater/strokers.

Both wrestlers can still wrestle the beater and strokers to try and get a submission and eliminate them from the match. But remember, he'd still have the other wrestler to contend with at the same time. If a beater and a stroker is eliminated then the wrestlers on his own. (And since he has been able to beat and stroke since the beginning of the match, his guidelines haven't changed.)

If the wrestler gets pinned then the beater becomes the wrestler. If there is no beater then it's the stroker who has to be the grappler. The action continues until all three men from one team are eliminated.

What's great about a match like this is that you can have three very different weight classes on the same team. Heavyweights can be the wrestlers, middleweights the beaters, and lightweights the stroker. Or switch them around. You can't tell me that any guy who is a wrestler from the start of this match isn't going to have a raging hard on by the time it's over. And think about it...Since a wrestler can be eliminated by a submission or emission the lightweight stroker could very easily come out the winner if he's skilled enough!


• Just Plain Cool Stuff •

• How about using a Wagner Power Painter to oil a guy up before a match? You'd think this would be a perfect gadget to use in a superhero story. (Even if it just has water in it.)
