Monday April 12 2021 - EvilDark and Shantig7	Recent matches
I've decided to take a leap of faith. Cases have been going down and I haven't seen EvilDark (id 1077) since June 2019. I took the train to get from Montreal to Quebec city and fortunately for me, there were only 7 passengers in my wagon (which would usually host 40 people at full capacity). EvilDark has instructed me not to eat in the wagon, but I've decided to calm him down by supplying him a picture of my empty train environment. I spent a nice weekend. We wrestled very briefly, caught up with the stuff we missed in the last 2 years and he made me visit a couple of parks and scenic areas. My mission was mainly to cheer him up, but I do feel that he is really fine on his own and that his morale was steady. Things have changed, he removed his profile from MeetFighters. He believes society will pay 5 years before normalcy. I do trust him because he has experience in this domain, but I tried to argue that humanity will be able to turn the page: we've had the Spanish Flu a century ago. It took a few years, but people started going back out to restaurant and cinemas again. Festivals and parades returned. Whatever happened became a thing of the past. People forget. Anyhow, we've traded quite a few body scissors. His scissors were still strong, although slightly less effective, but most probably because of the extra weight I gained. 🤣 On the other hand, he is still weak as ever against my scissors.... and I took the opportunity to sneak a few submissions on him, enjoying every ounce of his difficult time with me. 😉 EvilDark complained that he doesn't defend well against my scissors because apparently he doesn't hold his breathing like I do when he puts me in a scissor. 😂 2 weeks after, I went and met with Shantig7. We've contacted each other back in October 2020, but we've held off our match until things became better. As the clouds in the horizon started to dissipate, Shantig7 and I agreed that it was safe to have our first match because we both work from home. Shantig7 would describe himself as a jobber, but he would fight back if requested. This spunky cub is actually fun to tumble with. Young and enthousiastic, this 27 years old wrestler will do his best to take you down. He is still a beginner, but with the proper experience and training, I do believe he can be a very powerful opponent. In this particular match, we wrestled on his bed and I had forgotten to bring my straps so we horrendously spent a significant amount of time placing back the bed sheet covers on his bed. Nonetheless, we had our fair share of fun where I would lock him in one hold after another, or teasing him with a leg lock while putting my hands behind my hand telling him I can beat him without my arms. He is quite flexible. Camels, crabs and reverse deathlocks take quite a bit of pressure before he'd feel anything. Shantig7 agrees with em that racks don't hurt... until you move up and down. He boasts a strong lower body, so a good scissor grip. Unfortunately for him, scissors are my favorite thing, so he could give me all the scissors in the world and I would smile back at him, thanking him for a great massage. On the other hand, I would assume he wasn't prepared to receive my body scissors. 😂 He is a fast learner though and was very eager to learn about the different wrestling styles and holds out there. I tried explaining to him as much as I can. His fondness for wrestling also started around the age of 13 with a match on TV. Shantig7 is an avid traveler. His great adventures overseas are overwhelming and shows that he does not hesitate to take risks and brave the unknown. He is very comfortable with his nice, handsome and compact cubbish body. In fact, he showed me one of his mugs that says: "I ❤ Carbs". I felt that was very cute. He is of Turkish descent, with a little mix of Armenian traits from several generations ago. I would imagine he's the first Turkish/Armenian wrestler I have ever fought. A rematch is in order, so we will hopefully be talking again soon. This will give me the opportunity to train him and make him a better wrestler than me eventually. 😊 As I write this today though, Canada has begun going into the third wave and have surpassed the US in some regions the ratio of cases per million inhabitants. New restrictions were put in place and curfew was set back from 9:30 pm to 8 pm. If there's anything that I've learned from the current situation is that you never know when the world changes completely, so you really should wrestle before you can't anymore.... while being careful and taking all the necessary steps to ensure safety of course. 😉
