It's A J-Sin

One of my favorite channels on YouTube which has lots of matches featuring beefcake wrestlers from the 1990s-mid2000s is OldSchoolBrawlers. A couple of days ago, a tag team match with Romeo and J-Sin (mistakenly identified as Justin) was posted and I think this may be the first time I've heard of the two wrestlers. J-Sin figures more prominently in the match probably because as the boy-next-door type, the promoters figured he'd get more sympathy from the fans (Romeo hardly gets any time in the ring; maybe because he's the tougher one?). I really don't know anything about J-Sin or Romeo and even a Google search didn't turn up much. Watch the action here. Here's another J-Sin match out of Georgia; in the Comments section, someone said J-Sin's real name is Jason Daniels; the Jason Daniels I searched for doesn't seem to be the same guy although I could be wrong. Also, there's a more current wrestler going by J-Sin these days and is very different from the J-Sin posted here.

  1. Isn't that Kid Romeo of WCW fame?

    1. Exactly. I think WCW billed him as from the "WCW Powerplant." Anon.

  2. This same Kid Romeo did a match for Thunders Arena in it's really early days but the match has been taken down the past several years. It was pretty hot.

  3. Great find Bruno! I knew about the Georgia match vid where he gets ganged up on in the end, but not the other. Unfortunately, "Jason" is a very popular name in pro wrestling, and J-sin is too, by extension, as are the generic last names, Powers and Daniels. He was called "Jason Powers" during a run on NWA Wildside, and there was a match on Youtube where he teamed with Jorge Estrada, if anyone can find it. Although he doesn't have a Cagematch page, some of his other matches are listed under the NWA Wildside cards there, ca. 1999. Anon.

  4. J-Sin/Jason Daniels appeared in several videos issued by BG Enterprises quite a while ago (the 1990s?) One was a video title Warehouse Warriors, which also featured a very young A. J. Styles. Daniels was also on a BG British video in a singles match and a tag match with a hot young partner, as well as another video featuring a mat match with an opponent whose name I've long since forgotten. Daniels was always hot, hot, hot and had excellent wrestling skills. (Also sweated like crazy.)

    1. Jason seemed to be a big deal in NWA Georgia at about the time it dropped the "Georgia" for "Wildfire" and later "Anarchy." He had a few wins, including holding half the tag-team belts, but then seems to have gone jobber and disappeared. A shame. Anon.

    2. Thanks for the lead. J-sin appears in about 10 BGEast videos, in their "NewPro" series, listed here. Anon.:
