| Saturday March 4 2023 - Meet your heroes: Kayden Keller | Visitors in town | ||||
| CanWrestle (id 9693) is known to publish wrestling fiction. Many of his works were initially published in chapter portions on his MeetFighters blog, but he eventually consolidated them and is currently selling them as books on Amazon. As his work gain traction, Kayden Keller eventually stumbled upon them (hey, our community is pretty small and niche... there isn't a lot of books covering gay wrestling on Amazon). So, he reached out to CanWrestle because the wrestling scenarios, stories and topics covered by his work intersect with Kayden's interests. They eventually make a trip to Montreal and I had the honor to wrestle both of them yesterday. I never thought I'd meet the Great Kayden Keller himself. He's an absolutely charismatic and exceptional guy all around: he is so down to earth, very humble, polite, well-mannered and quite intelligent. Should you meet him one day, remember to ask about his profession, he has a lot of things to share. He is definitely a superstar is in my eyes and he's an outstanding wrestler with an amazing personality. 🤩 Kayden appears in more than 70 matches in BG East's videos and he is excellent and consistent throughout all of his performances, but meeting this guy in person and seeing how nice he is in real life is really something else. He's the introvert by day, extrovert wrestler with an outgoing and heeling persona by night. One may be intimidated by this titan measuring 6'2" and weighing 215 lbs at the time of our match, but truth be told, this giant beast is a gentle and tamed teddy bear. 🧸 CanWrestle and Kayden rented a spacious hotel room in downtown Montreal and they borrowed my mats so that they can have a few local matches on something a bit more safer and pleasant to tangle in than a mattress. I couldn't host at my condo because my mom lives with me. I took a ride with them back to the hotel and I was worried about how we would be able to sneak in the mats without the reception eyeing us or flagging us someway or another. Luckily, their hotel had an underground parking lot. We simply carried the mats into the elevator and that lead us directly to the floor where the room was located. No need to pass awkwardly and unscrupulously in front of reception with eight large gigantic pieces of flashy blue suspicious mats. 😏 I had a great and memorable evening: we wrestled a bit, ate at the MVP sports bar, went back to the hotel for some more tango and LumberG (id 250) eventually joined us. We proceeded with a nice round-robin where Kayden evidently and effortlessly destroyed each of us, being the experienced wrestler that he is. When I was ready to speak to Kayden for the first time, it went something like this: "You probably get this often, but yea.. I'm a big fan. What really impresses me with your work is that you think outside the box. Most BG East matches I've seen follow a same format or template, they just feature two different wrestlers and they repeat the same stuff over and over. Your matches contains holds and maneuvers that only belong in fantasies and you make them a reality." He smiled and he explained to me that they are indeed many that belong to the category of wrestlers that just want to shoot the video and leave with their paycheck ASAP, while there are others who understand the community and take the time to produce the kind of content that we actually want to see and put a lot of love and passion into it. CanWrestle has already filled him with the info of my site and my main strengths so he went and picked me up in a bearhug, started tackling me down, letting me put my scissors on him.. which obviously and virtually did nothing. That's where I realized I was wrestling a concrete wall, an invincible brick and that there was nothing I can do aside from being defending and delaying the inevitable. Kayden also does have BJJ experience that made him untouchable and impervious to anything you could throw at him. He was definitely on a completely different level, but he will still adapt to your style, gradually apply his holds and he's super safe and nice to tangle with. Kayden was nice to cheer me up by saying that I was strong when he is clearly 10x stronger than I am. 😅 He shared this story that he had fought an opponent that was downplaying his skills, but when Kayden fought him, he realized that his opponent had a lot of training. His opponent later told him that he never show or tell his abilities and skills in advance because most people would be afraid to wrestle him or think they would end up with injuries. Many would believe or think of a scenario where they are this Level 1 Newbie Wrestler facing a Level 100 Maxed-out Opponent that will one-shot them and kill them, when the reality is the complete opposite: facing a highly experienced opponent means that you have less chances of being hurt, because your opponent knows exactly what they're doing. Here's a couple of pics where Kayden clearly had control over me, but at the same time, he was taking very good care of me. 😅
You can actually get a different clip where LumberG took a video of Kayden doing a different rack on me, but standing up and turning around in [  Clip ID 426 ]Mind you, I did wrestle CanWrestle too. He did short work of me. I always love being his jobber, even though I tease him that he enjoys being my ***** once in a while. We did very light stuff and I eventually got racked three times in a row at one point. Once by Kayden, once by CanWrestle and once by LumberG. I think I needed a little break in between them, because the pain in my shoulder started acting out... but it was still very fun nonetheless. 😅 I enjoyed all the racks and these guys do it all very safely, all like professionals! LumberG did told me at point much later that he would have wanted to be racked too... but he was too shy to ask Kayden, so let's put that on our bucket list for now. 😁 LumberG and I tangled a bit and we went: "It's been a while we haven't wrestled each other." So, CanWrestle asked: CanWrestle: "Don't you guys wrestle each other all the time?" LumberG: "Not really... since he injured me." Yeah.. I used to put those leg scissors on LumberG on a regular basis until his sciatic nerve reminded him that it's not something he can take it anymore. I eventually stopped ever putting leg scissors on him, but I also stopped wrestling him competitively by fear of hurting him again or further. Since then, our matches are just a couple of give and take and roughhousing like playful gutpunching or light scissors with little pressure on my end unless Lumber politely asks to crank it up. It did took a couple of months for him to heal, but ever since, I am now still very cautious with LumberG so not to repeat the same mistakes or cause his nerve to enter in a regressive mode. LumberG had his fair share of fun with Kayden. He actually came in not knowing who Kayden is until I much later showed Kayden's catalogs on BG East after the match. 😆 Once they locked up, it didn't take long for LumberG to determine that he was no match for Kayden's strength and experience. However, he was trying not to lose fast, because unlike me, LumberG doesn't like to be publicly humiliated although having Kayden flex on top of you is quite something!  LumberG flexes while enjoying a sight of Kayden Keller's biceps 😁 LumberG eventually said that the reason he doesn't wrestle people taller than him is because he doesn't want to lose. CanWrestle didn't hesitate to throw this: "Well I'm shorter than you and I can beat you." 😉 LumberG mentioned to me that CanWrestle was stronger this time around than in Ottawa, but that was because we only informed him of our visit a few hours prior and that day, CanWrestle have had 5 trainings on boxing and BJJ so he was pretty tired. This time, he was all fresh and ready to tackle LumberG and show him his real strength. When Kayden flexed on top of me, I literally said out loud: "I never imagined that this is something that I would ever be able to see in my life!" 😆 Yes, Kayden has always been a super hero of the gay wrestling world in my eyes, but seeing him flex, wrestle, rack and bearhug me was definitely like a dream come true... somebody pinch me! Our match was really fun and I honestly think this was one of the greatest thing that happened to me in a very a long time. 🤗 Kayden also mentioned a story where he downplays his looks and I had to interject with: "Please, Kayden, you are gorgeous!" To this day, LumberG still pokes fun at me for throwing such a blatant over-the-top adjective. 😂 After our night, LumberG and I left around midnight to catch our last subway home. As I snuggled up to LumberG, I asked him: Loserboy: "Did you take a shower?" LumberG: "No." Loserboy: "You smell like Kayden Keller." LumberG: (sarcastic) "Do you want to sleep in the other room?" 😂 | |||||
