Brad Armstrong vs Dale Veasey

 

Mike Davis versus Dory Funk Jr.

 

Dory Funk Jr was a perfect heel to dominate

babyface Mike Davis.

Total 'sociopath makes light work of 

innocent babe' vibe!

Mike's hair was perfect at this point.

He sort of got a little frazzled-looking as

things went on. But still the on-point

'Good Boy Next Door' look here.

"Down, boy--Stay down!"

Mike Davis versus Greg Valentine

 

Mike Davis splayed on his backside!

Delirious Mike on the ropes!

Controlled & manhandled!

Mike reminded me of the same general body type of

Brian Kerwin (The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo)

and I was really into it/them at the time...and still!

Money shots.

Valentine dominates.

Davis prone.

Oh, Mike. Spank Bank for Life!

Punishment.

Laid out and vulnerable.

Mike Davis versus Buzz Sawyer (pt. 2)

 

A few more shots of the excellent Mike Davis (baby

blue trunks) getting expertly worked over

by heel Buzz Sawyer.

Mike Davis, wrestler

 

Mike Davis was a phenomenal talent, having

that desired trifecta of looks/personality, 

technique/physicality, & an incredible ability to Sell.

Seen here getting beautifully worked over by a 

young (stupid-Hawt!) Buzz Sawyer, Mike 

started off with his good-guy character who

typically jobbed... in spite of his tremendous 

wrestling ability.

Mike was one of the best portrayers of

vulnerability & suffering, rivaling fellow 

Tampa-area wrestler Tommy Rogers for

being King of Selling.

That gorgeous 'boy-next-door' babyface getting

viciously worked over was super-hot.

More compelling than a squash match, seeing

Mike battle and have a chance before defeat

made it all the sweeter.

Mike filled out those tights and had the perfect

athletic body--sadly last seen in this

early-1980s era just before 'normal bodies' got 

faded out in favor of roided out, over-pumped 

musculature in the sport.

Mike won his fair share of matches, too.

He just excelled at being worked-over so much

that it's hard not to promote that quality!

The man performed in a slew of matches in a 

career cut too short (dead at age 45.)

                                         

Apologies, but I misplaced the info on the other

wrestler in these last two shots, but I couldn't 

leave out such perfect depictions of Mike's

fantastic body/expressiveness!
