FROM THE VAULT: The FTV series presents some of your favorite W4H wrestlers early in their underground careers, or early matches filmed that formed the foundation of the W4H empire. Once again we take a early look at Caleb Brand, as well as one of Rolf Fulton's first matches. As we begin, Rolf is already down on the mat, one of his legs obviously injured. Caleb, however, cares not what condition Rolf's leg (or any other part of Rolf) is in, he just knows that he wants to beat upon another young wrestling wannabe.
Those who have followed Rolf's career know that he can be a downright saidstic individual in the squared circle, and yet here, at his beginnings, he offers little to no offense. Some to be sure, but no where near enough to turn the tide in the match in his favor. Perhaps it was a few more beatings like he takes here from Caleb that turned him into the devious ring veteran he is today. I can imagine that being on the receiving end of a few of these types of matches would only increase one's desire to dish them out in sweet revenge.
Caleb does not let Rolf into the club he so desperately desires at the end of the match. After repeated stomps to his legs, bearhugs, being draped across the ropes, Rolf is only able to muster weak moans of pain. Anything else is simply beyond his ability to do. If, like me, you enjoy seeing Rolf in a situation unlike you have ever seen him, then this matchup against Caleb rand will be right up your alley. A brief peak into the formation of a wrestling career is here for all to see!
This is a wonderful extended beatdown match. Rolf suffers beautifully as Caleb demolishes him, his moans of pain are delightful. There are a number of great holds and, in the back half of the match, plenty of ballbusting and action using the ropes. A few brief flashes of foot domination are also highlights for me.
