Of all the tapes in my collection (albeit small) this is by far my all time favourite. If you've been visiting this site for a while, you'd probably guess by now that I am a Back Breaker fan. There is nothing quite as exilerating as watching a flexible lass demonstrate her suppleness (willingly or forcibly in the ring), her back arched and her taut abs facing the sky and her chest thrust out under strain. Seeing how my favourite back bender Tasha Welsh is in this match, I have all the elements I like in one tape!
This is what the people at Double Trouble have come up with this tape. Tasha Welsh and Susie Johnson are pitted against each other in this match, the second of two to be found on this tape, starring Lisa vs Katrina (another great match). As with most DT tapes, this also starts off with a lot of gratuitous posing, each lady stretching and showing off their famous attributes, long legs, muscular calves, supplness.. Then the action starts!
Without telling you the blow by blow details of this match, I can tell you that Susie does get the early advantage over Tasha as they end up tearing away at each other. Since this is a back breaker match, the bending starts early.
Susie readily shows why she is known as a really mean fighter. She easily bundles up Tasha in a ball and has her way with the poor lass, choking her out with her own bra. Tasha manages to get out of this one and starts after Susie, ripping her top off and returns the favour... "You fight like a girl" claims Tasha to Susie.. words she is going to regret soon enough! Stripped down to their basic thongs, the girls lunge at each other.
Grabbing each other's hair they try to force the other down but the stronger Susie prevails and immediately drops Tasha in a reverse headlock, back bent and abs up high, chest thrust out. Poor Tash has to endure several shots to her cruely exposed abs and twists to the nipples. No one bends as well as Tasha and no one bends them like Susie. Breaking out of the hold Tasha tries to crawl away from her attacker but Susie is quick to drop a double axe handle to the small of Tasha's back and knees her in the ribs. Pulling her up by the hair, Susie drapes Tasha across her knee and bends her back. More shots to the abs and crushing breast mauling.
More rounds of excrutiating back breakers across the ropes, knees and even some imaginative holds that have to be seen to be believed, especialy the reversed head scissors back breaker hold, now this one is sweet. All the while, Susie taunts her "Do I still fight like a girl" as she slams one fist after another into Tasha's exposed abs as Susie has her bent backwards. No one carries these off as well as Tasha. But fear not, though her back is mangled and punished, Tasha eventualy turns the tables on Susie and gives her a taste of her own medicine.
Faking injury and no longer able to continue, Tasha pleads to Susie that she's had enough. As Susie reaches down to apply a finishing hold Tasha lashes out and nails her in the gut with a well placed foot. Once up on her feet, Tasha grabs Susie by the hair and throws her to the ropes, bending her forward facing out of the ring. Spanking Susie's vulnerable sweet behind, she ends up on the mat again in an unusual position where she applies a painfull back breaker - scissor hold on Susie. Susie suffers more to Tasha in a Grapevine and breast mauling. She manages to kick off Tasha after a short while and once on her feet, retaliates for the tit twisters. This is short lived as Tasha manages to get Susie into the ropes again and while bent over the top rope with her rear in the air, Tasha relishes in biting her ass. breaking the hold, Tasha steps back and taunt Susie once more, "Now we'll see who finishes who".
Throwing Susie back into the ropes, this time facing her, Tasha attempts to choke the life out of her with both hands, deleivering several deep hard blows to the abs and grinding her fist deep into Susie's belly... Returning to choking Susie, Tasha is suddenly caught in a painfull thigh to the crotch that causes her to release the choke hold. Down to the mat, Tasha winces and tries to crawl away but Susie stomps on her lower back to punish Tasha again.
This time, Susie demonstrates her power and evilness in this excrutiating standing back facing head scissor back breaker. Tash, with her head clamped between Susie's thighs and her belly facign skyward with a wicked arch in her back, can't see the punishing blows to the abs as Susie demolishes her opponent. This is another awesome move only Tasha can carry off sweetly. Lowering herself down to her knees, Susie has Tasha bent back and mercilessly works over her abs and chest. Grasping each nipple, Susie tries to raise Tasha off the mat. OUCH!
Tasha never regains the initiative and is basicaly taken apart peice by succulent piece by Susie. Best described as "drunken with pain" poor Tasha is repeatedly bent back, stretched out and slammed in the guts as Susie tortures her happless victim. Cruel Susie even humiliates poor Tasha by putting her in a horrible leg spread with the help of the lower ropes and stomps Tasha hard between the legs. OUCH!
Thankfully, Susie puts the finishing touches to her torturous rampage on Tasha by choking her unconscious while holding Tasha in a back breaking hold, but not before slapping her face asking her if she wants to submit. Poor Tasha wants to go home, she quits. A nipple twist and a gut slug before she passes out ends the suffering. Talk about insult to injury. While on the mat bent backwards unconcious, the victorious Susie gets her customary hero shots posed over the fallen and broken victim.
This match certainly has a lot of great elements. back breaking poses held long, great camera angles showing each ladies' fine attributes, no wasted footage. It's all that great. Tasha Welsh, a veteran of several genre of films is an excellent performer, she has that special "thing" that makes her such a fan favourite. Many fans I spoke with indicated that they much prefer Tasha as the victim since she is the only one who can truely carry off these painful holds without injury to herself. The only thing missing from this match was cross shoulder backbreakers and the use of the corner buckles, I would truely love to see Tasha draped over someone's shoulder or dropped across the top corner buckle 'a la All the Marbles" and have two opponents work her over, now THAT would be a scene! Susie certainly did an excellent job of being the meanie in this match as she always does. Both these ladies won't disapoint you in any video. And now you know why I give this tape a 9 star!
