I make £350 an hour threatening & ‘beating up’ men – they lie & go behind their wives’ backs for piggybacks and punches

HANDS shaking with nerves, the bashful looking middle-aged man standing at pretty Sophie Weiss’ door gulps nervously before knocking.

Anyone would think he didn’t want to be here, but actually he’s flown over 1,500 miles from Madrid to a town in Yorkshire to meet the petite 32-year-old – and she’s more than prepared for the next hour in his company.

Despite his nerves, he’s chosen to come to Sophie’s house with the sole aim to receive a good beating from her alter ego, the Barnsley Basher. 

Sophie is actually a 5ft 7in pro-wrestler, who makes a living from grappling with men twice her size – and they pay handsomely for it, some up to £350 an hour. 

Her customers are often married men with wrestling fetishes, who get their kicks (quite literally) from being physically dominated by a woman. 

Their wives would be astounded if they knew the truth: their hubby isn’t on a business trip, he’s got a two hour wrestling session with the Barnsley Basher. 

“These men go behind their wives backs because they’re scared to open up,” Sophie tells Fabulous. 

“And the problem is with not being open in a relationship, is that they come to see me. 

“If they had more openness in their marriage, it wouldn’t have to be like that because the wife could just dominate them instead.”

She adds: “I’ve had guys tell me they want me to fight their wife – but I don’t do that.”

Sophie is a martial artist trained in boxing, wrestling and Brazilian ju-jitsu, all of which helps her physically dominate men.

Her clientele tends to be men over 40, but she says they all have a “submissive look about them”.

So while their unsuspecting wives think they have a teddy bear of a husband, these men are sneaking off to wrestle with a beautiful woman. 

“They’re not muscular, they’re sort of your average Joe with a bit of a pot belly, or a bit of a dad bod,” Sophie says. 

“I’ve got regulars, including a little old man who’s very regular. Some of them come and go.”

She charges up to £500 an hour for some sessions, but less taxing bookings go for as little as £250 an hour. 

Sophie’s most profitable days are when she travels to a particular city – including London, Bristol or Birmingham – and can fit five clients from that area in one day. 

It sounds bizarre, but her career isn’t new.

In fact, there’s several trailblazers from the nineties who were long charging men a pretty penny to wrestle them. 

Sally McNeil, famous for killing her bodybuilding champion husband Ray McNeil on Valentine’s Day in 1995, made up to $300 (£235) an hour from wrestling men in hotel rooms in California, US, or on mail-order videos.

‘I piggybacked & wrestled him’

Sophie got into this work around four years ago after one of her male followers responded to her fitness pictures on Instagram and asked if she was strong enough to lift him up. 

The pair messaged back and forth for a bit, and he offered her £300 to come and tussle with him for an hour. 

“I thought I’d give it a go, as I’m quite a curious person anyway,” she says.

“I piggybacked him, wrestled him and performed some holds on him as well.”

I do voice notes saying I’m going to beat the s**t out of them. That’s what my fan base is into, and they love it

“I’m a petite girl and I quickly realised that’s what men like about me,” Sophie adds.

“I don’t look like I’d be strong enough to lift them up.” 

The martial arts fanatic – who is trained in boxing and Brazilian ju-jitsu – is so strong that she can crush a full watermelon between her legs. 

However while fruity stunts for social media are all fun and games, tussling with 6ft men isn’t a walk in the park. 

“It takes a toll on my body,” Sophie admits. “Sometimes I need a week or two to recover because I’m in that much pain.”

Thankfully it hasn’t taken a toll on her love life however.

The former glamour model has a long-term boyfriend who lives in Bulgaria.

He wasn’t too keen on her work at first, but has now even gotten into wrestling on camera himself.

He came to visit Sophie in England last month and the pair booked in some duo bookings for punters looking to get dominated by both a woman and man. 

In the run up to Christmas, Sophie is extremely busy, with clients desperate to satisfy their fetish before the festive holidays. 

She also has a three hour session booked in Bulgaria for the week between Christmas and New Year, and will be keeping her OnlyFans account updated to ensure a steady income. 

Behind a paywall, fans can pay to see videos of her wearing boxing gear while throwing punches towards the camera, flexing her muscles and wrestling with men twice her size. 

‘I play into their fantasies’

They can also pay upwards of £100 for a personalised message from her.

“I do voice notes saying I’m going to beat the s**t out of them,” she tells. “Or I play into their fantasies and say I’m going to choke them out. 

“That’s what my fan base is into, and they love it. People assume that OnlyFans is just straight up porn, but I do completely fetish work. 

“My fan base don’t want to see me naked – nudity doesn’t sell for me at all. They’re not interested in that.”

And whilst OnlyFans content creators are constantly plugging full frontal pictures on the likes of X (formerly Twitter) to draw in new subscriptions, Sophie needn’t worry. 

“My fans are simply interested in me wearing a bikini, with some boxing gloves on my hands, saying that I’m going to knock the s**t out of them,” she smiles.
