After a recent
BECW
house show, I received what I felt was a huge compliment. Kenny
Mac came to me after the show and said 'You're one tough little bastard.
You get beaten into the ground and you don't complain.' Now this
may not sound like much on the surface, but anyone who has followed HCW-
Maryland or BECW has heard of Kenny Mac. He's been interviewed by
Backyard Magazine, and he's wrestled indy shows. By contrast, I'm
reasonably certain that none of you have heard of me. I've been
wrestling with BECW for about three months, and as one of the smallest (
5' 7" 125 lbs) and one of the oldest (27) guys on the roster, I
don't expect to be given top spots. On this particular day, we
held an impromptu three match house show, and I wrestled (and lost) in
two of those matches. As the masked Mistico, I wrestled Kenny Mac,
and I found myself too far away from his springboard when he hit a
running senton splash. The result was all of his weight landing
solidly on my sternum. He covered me and asked if I wanted to
continue. In my second match, I took a modified power bomb (which
you will ALWAYS feel, no matter how carefully it's done) at the finish,
and landed more on the base of my spine than flat on my back.
