Sunday June 2 2019 - Quebec: After 6 monthsRecent matches
My last match with EvilDark was actually in December 2018. We usually meet once a season, so I'm way past due. Our last winter has been brutal so I didn't want to risk traveling where trains, buses and planes are the perfect places to catch another cold/flu strain. Luckily, summer is at doorsteps, so I took a quick train ticket and spend a week-end in Quebec City.

I've decided to walk a bit from the train station to my friend's house, but I accidentally lost the new elbow pads and one of the trunks I've just bought because my bag was open. Stupid and silly me. I've learned not to dwell on it. It's just gear that I can buy again.

For the first time ever, I am now officially heavier than EvilDark. He weighs 160 lbs and after eating his soup, I was weighing 165 lbs. Ooof. I guess that now makes me the heel, which is obviously something EvilDark would never accept. Incidentally, to make fun of it, he started rubbing my belly and calling me Buddha... rubbing it would grant him a wish: the wish for the St. Louis Blues to beat up the Boston Bruins in hockey in the Stanley Cup finals. That unfortunately didn't work because the Blues lost 2 to 7. It's only the third match of the series though, but Boston now leads 2-1. I guess rubbing me gives you bad luck.

Anyhow, EvilDark kindly took me out for a bike ride along the St. Lawrence river for a 22 km (14 miles) hike. We were lucky enough to do this on one of the best sunny and warm day this year. Yet, it was not too warm, not too cold, and we had a nice breeze to cheer us up and move us along. It's not the distance that was a challenge though, it is rather Quebec's steep inclines, large hills that makes pedaling up and down quite a workout. EvilDark also purposely took this road to send me a subliminal message that I need to take advantage of this hopefully beautiful summer to lose a couple of extra pounds.

Back to his place, we switched to wrestling gear and tumbled around. My previous match with Scontca allowed me to understand better how to apply figure-four head scissors. That little rotation or tilting to the right does wonder. That being said, I've probably put EvilDark in his longest head scissor session than I've ever did in the past 15+ years we've known each other.


One thing I really appreciate from EvilDark is his constant creative thinking. He always find new ways to torture me. Take this cobra clutch body scissor combo for instance. It is an absolute heavenly thing to be crushed in...


You can take a look at the video in [ Clip ID 374. ] Evildark really shows you how to make the most of a good body scissors. You'll also see my hysterical laugh from the pain... yeah, I know, I'm weird, but the pain you get from body scissors is something that makes me laugh. If you do a quick release, it will cause a pain spike. Your ribs are then sore for a short amount of time. There can be a long term impact if not done properly, but EvilDark is a scissor expert, so the pain is almost always short-term.

We also tried something a bit different: I've put on the Phantom of the Opera theme song and EvilDark squeezes me in a body scissor at the same level as Christine's intensity of her final chant. Actually, the higher her pitch, the stronger the scissors. Near the end, the pitch goes quite a bit high... It's quite funny. It's better to experiment about it than to read about it obviously.

The week-end went very fast and the next thing I know is that I was back on the train towards Montreal. I've suggested to EvilDark that he comes up to Montreal next time so he can have a match with Sylvain (id 2636) and Vicious (id 5128). Maybe I can get Marty (id 6169) in, too.

This last pic shows that I've already arrived in Montreal's central train station.


So what am I doing now? Writing this blog entry, of course, before I forget it... By the way, this is the longest my hair and beard has ever been. It takes 2 months to grow this, that's because of my genes obviously. I'm trimming and shaving it all down in 2 days.
