Mike Fowler (BJJ Black Belt, Pan Am Champ) recently lost in the Mundial BJJ World Championships to Daniel Moraes. Mike locked on a seriously tight arm bar from the gaurd and Daniel slammed him (illegally albeit) on his head/commonly known as a "spike" to release the hold and to go on to win the match.

Have you ever rolled with an equally skilled wrestler?

a triangle doesnt have a guy on his back, its on the front. Maybe you should watch Matt Hughes the wrestling great in his fight with BJJ guy BJ Penn, that pretty much shows what happens when a wrestler gives his back. Yes Ive trained with wresters many times and they always bring those funny ear cover thingys into the gym. They are actually kind of predicatable when i know they are primarily wresters, if they were incognito and just wore the GI maybe they'd do better. They love going for the guilitine everytime at the start, which fails everytime at the start. this is from the knees of course. They are usually strong and in good shape, have good base, but are too hyper for the most part and get tapped easy. IF they trained BJJ for a year or so at least plus their wrestling, then you have a great ground fighter.
and the arm drag is perfected by Marcelo Garcia, its a long way from a wrestling move, which doesnt have a RNC with hooks sunk in, in its arsenal
