Muscle Monday : Ethan Carter III

Here's TNA star Ethan Carter III (formerly Mike Hutter/Derrick Bateman) versus an unidentified opponent in a match which took place very recently in Australia. A bunch of American wrestlers -- Davey Richards, Eddie Edwards, Phil Shatter, Caleb Konley, Robbie E -- recently traveled Down Under to compete against their Aussie counterparts in a series of shows, which, from the looks of it, were held in small venues. Don't you envy the fans who were able to watch this awesome match?

    EC3 has never looked better. Hard to believe he had long hair once as I can't imagine him looking anything but like this. Body has really evolved to become quite a sexpot too

      Agee.He's gotten back to what he looked like when he was Mike Hutter, even improving on his look.
      The other wrestler is Slade Mercer.

    Once again, Eli, I agree with you. A handsome, muscular young Alpha Male is a sublime, unparalled work of art, and here we are looking at two of them. Wow!

    Is there anything more upsetting than not finding proper YouTube/video recordings of awesome matches? Ugh. This happens to me all the time with Brady Pierce, who seems to wrestle pretty regularly but his matches only seldomly are uploaded to YouTube.

    Couldn't find this Ethan Carter match on YouTube but there's a minute-long video prior to the match on there.

    I didn't know they were even here in Oz. Saw no publicity. I would have travelled a long way to see these guys especially ECIII. He has such a great body and is made fro pro-wrestling. He and Jesse Godderz are the stars of TNA.

    If this is what he looked like as Mike Hutter, I need to search for some of those matches!

      It helps if you know he was known as the "Deviant," but still, full match vids are hard to find.

    This match was for Hunter Valley Wrestling at Club Maitland, 12/15/2015. EC3 won. He gave a post-match interview that's on YouTube. Mercer was called Max Damage at one point.

    I looked for EC3 videos under all his gimmicks. Even those matches described as full matches are rarely more than four minutes long. Promoters, we fans are not so attention deficit that we can't or won't watch longer matches. Ten minutes ought to be the norm, at minimum!
