Brent Metcalf
Out of all of the wrestlers currently wrestling in the US, this guy is my favorite. Brent Metcalf has an explosive and aggressive style that I really admire. He is ultra competitive and a hard worker (a dangerous combination).
As it is, there are many videos of this guy wrestling, so we made a page specific for his matches. Enjoy.
