Meet 12 New Faces

We wrap up "New Faces" week with pics of 12 beefcake wrestlers who have not been featured on this blog before (at least, not that I can remember; I've posted thousands of pictures here and maybe one or more of these men have been featured in an action shot or so). I haven't found a lot of images of these guys yet, but I'm going to try to do individual or perhaps group posts on them when I do. In the meantime, who among these fine specimens are you most excited to see more of?
1 - Ronnie Metro

2 - "Cinema" Stevie Shields

3 - Will White

4 - Will Ospreay

5 & 6 - Asylum and Matt Burns aka The Flatliners

7 - Jorge Santi

8 - Johnny "The Man" Moran

9 - Travis Dorian 

10 - Phil Atlas


11 - Kazushi Miyamoto

12 - John Atlas

    1. I literally couldn't find any additional Images. No trace of a FB page and little trace of him on that of his promotion, Premier Pro Wrestling of Woodstock IL, mostly promo vids. No accounts with Twitter, Pininterest, Instagram, etc. No profile at Cagematch. The only thing I found of any substance is this YouTube post:

    2. One more, apparently from a WWE try-out. Much better camera work:

    3. Check Premier Pro Wrestling's channel--there are a few matches on there, or search for "Ronny Metro" since that seems to be the more popular spelling of his name.

    4. Hey JM! You beat me to it. He has just had his first two matched at Premier. As long as you're there, also check out Matt Vine, Chase Gosling, Ron Reeves, and Milad Akbar (who has appeared on this site in 27 posts already). Anon.

  2. You've never had Will Ospreay on this site? Amazing. Photos and videos of his matches are all over the place, and he's a big star in the UK. You'll like what you see (and hear: he suffers magnificently). In the meantime, Ronnie Metro and "Cinema" Steve Shields definitely deserve further inspection (so to speak).

  3. What an amazing week of posts. I hope you do this New Faces (and Bodies) Week again.

    The left Flatliner caught my attention (Asylum?). I hope he wrestles in trunks so we can see him shirtless. Honestly, lots of hot faces. Will Ospreay has caught my eye before, but not this pic so much. "Cinema" Stevie Shields is hot up close to that young supple body of his. Johnny Moran looks like quite the man, unff

    1. I find Stevie a bit thin for my tastes. He appears on some of the same cards as Bo Nekoda.
      Johnny "the Man" Moran, does singles matches, but, as I noted in the Bo Nekoda post, he is also part of the Exerguys team with Mike Mitchell, and appears in one of the pics. Anon.

    2. I can see Stevie being too thin when he hits the ring for some action, but I'll definitely take him in that closeup pic.

      Mike Mitchell is definitely the top alpha dog of that Exerguys pack. Moran definitely looks better in this pic than others I've seen I guess

    3. Ah yes, I was rewatching the M3 match linked to get me some more Mike Mitchell. Didn't even notice his opponents included Stevie so that's an indicator. And now yeah, I definitely agree he's kinda thin. But hey, doesn't discount that that's a hot pic of him above!

    4. True. I would have had a hard time recognizing him. I guess the camera DOES put on pounds! Anyway, he's young, he'll fill out.
      There's at least one match of his with Nekoda out there. Anon.

  4. ## 2, 4, 7, & 12 (maybe 10) ----> MORE, PLS,. I thought that I had seen Will Ospreay on BCofW. I guess not, but he is all over the net these days, so maybe we can expect to see a feature album for him before too long. Alas his assets are mostly cloaked by yellow, so that they are really not visible here. Thanks for asking, Bruno, and thanks for the gallery. TT

  5. I actually like most of these although that Will White/Bill Black gimmick is pretty silly. It does, however, let a wrestler transform from face to heel in the same match, every match which is cool.

    1. Will White and John Atlas both appear in Ontario-based companies, I was going to "nominate" Pro Wrestling Eclipse as having what may be the best-looking roster in independent wrestling, including: Will White, John Atlas, Ray Steele, & Tyler Tirva, as well as members of "the Fraternity" (esp. Channing Decker). They generously post their full shows on Youtube, excellent quality:

    2. Forgot to mention that Atlas is one of my favorites. Love the way he throws punches. Anon.

    3. And, also on Eclipse, but not on Youtube yet, Phil Atlas and John Atlas recently did a battle of the Atlases match (the gimmick is that they are cousins), and are going to work as a tag team. Anon.

    4. You're an angel, Anon!

      So THAT'S where Tyler Tirva's been hiding. Is The Fraternity still a trio? I liked Bradford Montague but I'm not sure if he's with them anymore. Looks like I have a lot of catching up to do.

      Thanks again for this treasure trove.

    5. And, I left out RJ City.
      I don't know that Montague is still doing a lot of wrestling, although he appears in one of the older shows that the Eclipse video folks recently posted. Also check out Barrie Wrestling's Youtube. There is a lot of overlap. Anon.

  6. I like the Atlas a vs. Atlas concept. And Travis Dorian looks promising.
