I still have vivid memories of discovering my first gay themed wrestling site on the internet - JPWA. Now I know that the site had it's share of problems and frankly the site is not technically 'gay' however, I can't escape how much of an influence it had on me at the time. The wrestler that stood out the most to me was Benjamin Quest, a cutie with an infectious smile.
To put things into context, gay wrestling was a rare novelty back in the late 90's/early 2000's and there were very few outlets for little gay boys dreaming about sexy wrestlers. There was pro wrestling, underwear ads, and the occasional shirtless scene in film/TV, but that was about it.
Now I have never purchased a video from JPWA and this was well before video/file sharing was mainstream, so the images alone posted to the site would have to sustain me, and boy did they! I was obsessed with Benjamin and devoured any images I could find from him. I projected on to those images all my fantasies and imagined every position, every expression, every detail of Benjamin's body in my mind.
Later I found Benjamin on Cyberfights.com, playing the sexy jobber against some very tough heels. Although nothing could match the lofty expectations I placed on Benjamin in my imagination; these matches did not disappoint and both the heels and Benjamin performed extremely well .
Over the years I'd catch a glimpse here and there of a grainy JPWA clip starring Benjamin and instantly I'm transported back to my youth. A time of spotty internet, low rez images, and my overactive imagination.
