A Clash of Giants - The Tale Of The Tape

Dirty South Pro Wrestling, out of Brewton, Alabama, has put together a match comparable to Godzilla VS Rodan.

6'11", 500 pound Lord Humongous VS 6'8" 380 pound "Mr. Hardcore" Jon Ryker, is one of those matchups that makes you wonder if the steel in the ring frame and the wood in the ring floor are going to be enough to keep everything from imploding or collapsing.

Mr. Hardcore, of course is one of the heavyweight icons of our indy wrestling area. His fighting skill and tolerance of pain are legendary among Culture Shock Wrestling fans who are legendarily intolerant of weakness, and among fans of other promotions that have seen him cut a swath through their rosters like a bulldozer through sugar cane.

Lord Humongous (right) is just BIG! Tall as an NBA basketball player and as body dense as two linebackers, he is the immovable object to Ryker's iresistable force. What he lacks in speed, he makes up for in sheer bone crunching power. In the photo, he is seen making short work of Marine Gunny Kage, sending him flying across the top rope as if he were a toy.

Then there is the "X" factor of which one of thse two incredibly powerful men is the more insane. Ryker, with his hard core background is certainly prone to attack with chairs, staple guns, flourescent tubes, trash cans, baking paraphenalia and loose bits of wood, is the more kinetically aggressive, whereas Lord Humongous is more personal in his aggression and will simply do everything he can to pound his opponent to a pulp.

Gotta feel sorry for the referee in this main event match. That poor skinny little dude is going to inevitably going to end up a zebra sandwich between two gigantisauric hunks of combatting fury.

This "Clash of the Titans" is going to take place on Nov 14th in Castleberry, right up the road a lick from Brewton, Al.

Also scheduled to appear that night, Rainbow Warrior, who will be loking for a victim to humiliate among the DSPW roster.

This show is a fund raiser for a cancer victim. Let's get out and show some support.
