Professional Gay Wrestling

While searching Amazon Prime recently, I was pleasantly surprised to locate, of all things, episodes of Memphis wrestling in the video library. But there was even more content free for any connoisseur of both fantastic wrestling and poor wrestling: a collection of death matches between Cactus Jack and Terry Funk, some truly awful-looking wrestling movies I’d never heard of, and something called, Professional Gay Wrestling.

My first question was, “Is this Guarded for Work?”

But my second question was “Why gay professional wrestling?” (Or “professional gay wrestling”, as it’s called, which led me advocate to my first question).

I mean, if gay men wish for to watch guys with great bodies and revealing outfits grapple with each other, there are a number of other wrestling promotions out there – specifically, all of them.

Let’s face it – wrestling is a very male lover sport, and has been since the days of the ancient Greeks. Those guys used to wrestle naked, which is just about the gayest thing two men can do short of having sex with each other.

Which they also did.

Actually watching PGW raised even more questions.

Growing up, I had a fire. Each Friday darkness, in the absence of a social life, 11 year old me would settle down in front of the TV with my dad to observe WWF (now WWE) Raw is War. At the hour it was the height of youthful masculinity. All the hard kids in school would see it without lose , then come in on Monday morning to clothesline-from-hell the rest of us and talk shop. In a moment before social media, where dial-up internet was at the forefront of technology, our weekly dose of man on man action, followed by the sneaky free 10 minutes of Channel Babestation once the parents had gone to bed, granted boasting rights for the week, and helped to construct our LAD mentality.

It’s only when you proceed to these exist shows, full to the brim with sweaty middle-aged men and their children, baying for blood and tits, that you feel truly part of the manly mob. The crowd would ascend up as one to cheer Stone Cold, curse the establishment heels, and

When we first heard about a gay wrestling club in San Francisco we were fond, those San Franciscans. Of course you have a special club where dudes wear spandex and roll around trying to take charge each other with their strong thighs. Then it occurred to us, isn’t that all wrestling clubs? Why does it matter that this one’s gay? Turns out gay sports clubs are a popular feature of the athletic landscape.

We called up Roger Brigham, a coach at San Francisco’s Golden Gate Wrestling Club to ask about the continued existence of gay sports clubs in an increasingly lgbtq+ friendly world.

VICE: Do we still need “gay sports clubs,” is it naive to believe that in a modern earth all clubs should be homosexual friendly?

Roger Brigham: Yes it is naive. There are still significant barriers to overcome. We’ve had this discussion many times with different clubs, because unlike clubs market themselves differently. Some place the fact that they’re gay right up front, where others you have to excavate a little bit further. We need to put it out there, because we need to make sure the conversation occurs. We don’t want somebody to be in a club and find out that peop
