The dual Beyond/CHIKARA show in July is going to be pretty sweet. - Dasher vs. Chris Dickinson - JDFC vs. Gresham - Touchdown vs. Hot Sauce Tracy Williams - Solo Darling vs. Deonna Purazzo - Crummels/Defarge vs. EYFBO All of those are primed to be good/great. *Points Are On The Line* so don't be surprised if you see some folks on future CHIKARA shows. I'm personally looking forward to the Dirt Boys (Crummels/Defarge) getting a wider audience. They're young but I really like what they do.

New blog post up by Thief Ant where he asks Worker Ant to join he and Green Ant against Icarus' faction, which may or may not include Fire Ant. Guessing that Worker Ant (who hasn't wrestled in about a year and a half) will get taken out by Icarus, Fire Ant will snap and will ultimately join Thief and Green for Trios.

Team #11 https://twitter.com/CHIKARApro/status/1013980738126008320 I suppose Oceanea is doing Rey de Voladores. My guesses for the final five teams: - Lucas Calhoun, Jeremy Leary and either Brett Michael David or Blanche Babish - Icarus, Tony Deppen and Travis Huckabee - Fire Ant, Green Ant and Thief Ant - Hype Rockwell, Proletariat Boar and Oleg the Usurper - Hallowicked, Frightmare and Kobald

They were supposed to establish Oceanea, Merlok and Crab for Trios at Go Eat Worms, but Oceanea decided to go to the ROH camp instead.

Icarus/Huckabee/Deppen confirmed for Trios as "The FIST Order."

Yeah. At the last event (the Chikara vs. Beyond show), they did Worker Ant, Green Ant, Thief Ant and Razerhawk vs. Icarus, Deppen, Huckabee and Fire Ant. After the match, Icarus was going to Pedigree Worker on the concrete, but Fire Ant helped Green and Thief clear the ring. Then he left instead of celebrate with them.

Trio #14 announced as the Ancient Order of the Nation: Mick Moretti, Jack Bonza and Adam Hoffman That leaves two more spots. Hyper Beast Warriors seems like a lock, but I don't know if the other spot will go to Lucas Calhoun's team or Legion of Rot. If the latter isn't in the lineup, this will be the first year without Hallowicked in the tournament.

# ? Jul 24, 2018 04:56 |

I don't see any way the Flying Volgars take the spot over Legion of Rot, but as always, they're tied to Hallowicked's interest level. Also, look for a Trios team to get a makeover this Saturday.

There's a video up of Dasher Hatfield with his son (also in a baseball mask) who is about to turn 18. Apparently his birthday present will be the two of them doing a tag match at some point in the near future.

Cory Lidle posted:Also, look for a Trios team to get a makeover this Saturday. YYYYUP. Results from today's show: - Blanche Babish made Whisper tap to the Soda Jerk. - Beast Warriors and Crummels/Defarge vs. Closers and Legion of Rot went to a no contest. During their entrance, Crummels and Defarge were attacked by the Closers and laid out while the Beast Warriors ran out. Beast Warriors had to fight 2-on-4 and did really well with Crummels and Defarge returning for the hot tag. Then they cornered the Closers and pulled out the money the Closers paid them off with from months back. Crummels and Defarge turned on the Beast Warriors and took part in a 6-on-2 beatdown. After the heels left, Boar got up and declared that this means war. - Mr. Touchdown defeated David Starr to gain his third point. - The Proteus Wheel defeated Calhoun/Leary/BMD. They slaughtered them one-by-one, ending with a series of triple powerbombs on BMD before finally pinning him. - Razerhawk defeated Icarus. Icarus spent the match acting lazy, like Razerhawk was below his attention. He grew gradually annoyed when Razerhawk would barely kick out of his finishers. Finally, Icarus lazily draped his back over Razerhawk in the center of the ring for a pin, only for Razerhawk to twist over for a crucifix pin. After the match, Razerhawk got in Icarus' face and ate a Pedigree. - Kimber Lee, Los Ice Creams and Kikutaro defeated Travis Huckabee, Merlok, Hermit Crab and Cajun Crawdad after Kikutaro linked up Huckabee, Crab and Crawdad into a triple dragon screw, then hit a Shining Wizard on Huckabee. After the match, Kimber Lee announced that she'll be in Japan for Stardom during King of Trios, so Kikutaro will be taking her spot as team captain. - Juan Francisco de Coronado retained the Grand Championship by making Solo Darling pass out to the Coronado Clutch. The basic story of the match was that each wrestler suffered major damage to their legs, which made them more susceptible to the other's submission, but made it hard to pull off their own for too long.

That Mr Touchdownn vs David Starr match was REALLY good. I don't know why Mr TD isn't getting booked all over, cause he is so good.

I was at the show today, Starr vs Touchdown did own. David Starr is really good. The last time I saw him at the Wrestle Factory was for that Beyond show where he had a hell of a match with Matt Riddle I also got to watch Kikutaro struggle to find an XL shirt and apologize to me when he didn't have one Dangerous Person fucked around with this message at 03:48 on Jul 29, 2018 |

I think TD just does it as a hobby, almost all of his matches outside of Chikara he's either teaming with Dasher or just working with other Chikara regulars.

Hallowicked's gimmick really falls flat outside of Chikara, and while Ultramantis was always a little awkward in the ring, he was such a good worker otherwise that his matches were always fun. edit: oh, and Tim Donst. Really, Quack should get back on his OCD meds and start letting his students work people besides each other again so they'll get better.

I'm mainly talking about people who stayed in CHIKARA, UMB and Hallowicked only occasionally took other bookings elsewhere; Quack didn't have the balls to tell Kingston when he could and couldn't work, and Donst left Chikara before he really did antyhing elsewhere.

AFAIK there's nothing stopping WF students from working other shows as long as they're available for Chikara dates. Quite a few have Real Life Commitments that make going full time indie wrestler not viable for them.

Mel Mudkiper posted:Whats up with Whisper? Just realized I havent heard from him for awhile They had this weird storyline where Whisper was frustrated that Troll was worthless and handed him off to be experimented on by Professor Nicodemus. Nicodemus gave him Trollzilla, which was a fat guy dressed in Troll's tights. Trollzilla wrestled one squash match and a show or two later, Troll was back to normal. Since then, Whisper hasn't had anything going on and lost the opener on Saturday to Blanche Babbish. I figure they're just going to continue the Whisper/Kimber Lee angle from the secret season at some point.

KungFu Grip posted:I guess the last KOT team is Dasher, Boomer, and Mr Touchdown So it is. Huh. Makes sense with the recent Dasher/Boomer video, but it's kind of weird how many ready-made trios didn't make the cut. Mainly the fact that this is the first Trios without Hallowicked in it and how the Hyper Beast Warriors turned out to be nothing but a blow-off to the Blank feud.

I'm really sad we never got to see Dasher, TD & Dunkerton as a trios. Also sad that the whole Sugar Dunkerton thing ended up being one of those eternal loose strings from the company.
