CHIKARA certainly isn't for everybody. I can only imagine how much someone like Lance Storm hates CHIKARA. But very rarely do I hear from somebody who went to a CHIKARA show where they said they didn't have fun.
Never been to a CHIKARA show myself. I was going to go to the North Dakota show that was "planned" before the shutdown happened.
Ciampa has now been added to both the Saturday and Sunday shows to replace what Sami was originally doing. He'll be wrestling Ethan Page at 54 and going up against someone who's been eliminated from the tournament at 55.
I'm curious as to if Ciampa suddenly showing up in Evolve has anything to do with the WWE/WWN "working relationship". Considering that Ciampa has been working for NXT semi-regularly for the last 6 months it wouldn't surprise me to see him become a regular in Evolve.
Also very curious as to what Regals announcement on Saturday will be.
I just went ahead and ordered all three EVOLVE shows for this weekend. The United triple shot that DGUSA ran to crown the first ever Open the United Gate Champions is among my favorite series of events, so I am hoping this weekend will deliver the same sort of results.
Well I'm doing supercard of honor Friday.. Evolve Saturday at 12.. Mercury rising at 8.. Which is why I was thinking of squeezing in shimmer at 4 Sat? Love roh's style.. Lethal.. Briscoe.. Cole.. Young bucks I just couldn't resist considering I've never seen a live show. Since I'm doing mania raw and axxess I'm trying to catch as much indy wrestling as possible. But like I said I'm unfamiliar with evolve though I hear good things!
The WWE/WWN relationship may have something to do with Ciampa showing up in WWN, but it probably has more to do with all the buzz around how great he's been over the past 6 months or so. He's been having great matches and putting in great performances everywhere he goes.
So Triple H was actually in attendance at the EVOLVE show tonight:
Some of the results from the past two nights were a bit surprising, but tomorrow's show looks REALLY good. I'd love to order it if it weren't the same day as the AFC/NFC CHampionships and the Royal Rumble. :lol
EVOLVE Tag Team Title Tournament - Finals
Chris Hero & Tommy End vs. Drew Galloway & Johnny Gargano
Zack Sabre Jr. vs. Sami Callihan
(this actually came about because their team lost back-to-back night so Sami got pissed and challenged Zack to a match)
Second Chance Tag Team Tournament Finals Elimination Match
Team Tremendous vs. Roppongi Vice vs. The Bravados vs. Drew Gulak & TJ Perkins
Tommaso Ciampa vs. ???
(this could potentially be Caleb Konley, Anthony Nese, or someone else eliminated from Style Battle)
Marty Scurll is coming to EVOLVE! April 1st and 2nd in Dallas. I'm really excited about the possibilities. Would love to see Scurll vs Gargano, Scurll vs TJP, or Scurll vs Hero! A lot of great guys you can pair him with.
Trent and Chuck recorded Best Friends episodes with Matt Sydal and EC3. Can't wait to see Trent and the guest bullshit about WWE Developmental while Chuckie T sits there and hates life, haha.
Kevin Steen was announced for AIW Hell On Earth 9. Oddly enough it was just the other day I was thinking that with apl the names who've been in AIW, I couldn't recall Steen ever being there.
I'm about to start watching PRIME Wrestlelution 5. I'll probably post my thoughts on it when I finish watching and get around to it.
Got bored. Decided if I ever win the lotto I will try and run this show because fuck money, I'd rather have wrestling.

I've done the same thing many times. It would be so great to be able to run a show on a unlimited/very high budget and have access to any talent you want. Personally I think I could put together a pretty great show but EWR has always told me that it was shit.
Just watched DBD XI. One question: what on earth makes Kevin Kelly think that someone could have watched ROH at 9 years old AND now be working for them? I mean it's possible if they were 9 in 2002 and now they're 20, but Adam Cole turned 9 in 1998...
Anyway, I haven't watched much ROH the last few years, but this was a pretty good show. I liked all the final four matches and the title match. Strong vs Marvin was good and the IWGP jr tag title match was good. Worth a watch, I'd say.
