Signed for the season opener it's Akuma returning to take on Icarus. And Green Ant has challenged Mike Quackenbush for a match to see if he can finally beat his trainer. I know it won't happen, but seeing Quack keep that heel edge after being upset by Green Ant would be great.

I could see it happening this year. The Roster has an impressive number of victories over current and former ROH talent. Kingston has beat several people over the past few years. 3.0 beat the Bravados at the Cibernetico. Jigsaw beat Edwards last fall and Generico on the iPPV pre-show.

I will try to watch some CHIKARA for the first time ever (I watched SDR and some YT matches) this year, because SDR, Taylor and Gargano are big draws for me. Maybe Kingston too.

I just need someone to tell me exactly what their stories are about. I asked the same question in the CHIKARA X thread, but only guy replied.

Del Rey turned her back on the entire Chikara locker room at Three Fisted Tales (2009 Season Finale) when she joined the then new stable known as the BDK run by Claudio & Ares. Her and Daizee spent most of 2010 beating up on the boys in the back, even accumulating three points towards a tag title shot. Claudio & Ares being champs at the time, it was clear that not only would they never get a shot at the belts, but they were more part of the group to keep other teams from attaining three points. So the rage begins to build. By the time 2011 comes along, you can feel the beast known as the BDK crumbling. Not showing the power and cohesion that lead them to win the Tag Titles, King Of Trios, YLC, etc. Daizee broke her nose at the 2010 Finale, and then for other reasons didn't see alot of action through out this year. Or atleast the second half. Sara gets voted into the CHIKARA 12 Large Grand Championship tourney despite the fact that every BDK member was suppose to nominate Claudio and Claudio only. SDR/Claudio happens eventually as they are in the same block. Claudio tells her to lay down, she doesn't. Honestly a great match u should try to find, SDR pins claudio. Dub C goes ham sandwich afterwards and is all pissed, one hand chokeslamming Daizee out of chikara. Girls are officially out of the BDK if they weren't already. Sara then finds herself away from the BDK, getting wins over the top men in CHIKARA. She loses to Quack in the finals of her block for the title tournament, but then goes on to win the Cibernetico.

As this season begins Del Rey is on a helluva roll. She has to be considered the top, if not one of the top contenders to Kingston's Grand Championship.

Thats all I got for her. As far as Chucky and Gargano.

Ok well, First things First. Chuck Taylor has to be the most decorated wrestler in CHIKARA's history excluding maybe Claudio and Hallowicked. He has been Young Lions Cup champion, was the First Rey De Voladores, Made Bryan Danielson tap out to win King of Trios for FIST, and is now one half of the tag Champs with Gargano. To sum them up very poorly as a team...they cheat. They are the official super cheating heels of Chikara. They do so very well. I believe they've cheated to win atleast one fall in every two out of three fall tag title matches they've been in over the past six months. I suggest trying to go back and find some of their work against Harada and Kotoge from Osaka, whether it be the title match or any of the last two years king of trios.

@xzeppelinfootx: thanks a lot dude, much appreciated.;)

@smitlick: well, xzeppelinfootx pretty much covered my question, i don't want to be a dick with bunch of noob questions, this was good for now. But thank you for your effort.

There's a lot going on with Ultramantis Black and the Eye Of Tyr. Someone can sum that up alot better than me.

Is it me or does the roster page look for small as of late? No Tursas and Delirious makes me sad. :( I wonder will Delirious have any involvement at the Thirteenth Hat , or is his mask just used for the sake of the picture.

Hopefully Tursas wasn't just a randomer that we'll never see again because he's a great big man worker and was rapidly improving

Mike Quackenbush has accepted and it will be him vs. Green Ant at the season opener.

And Tadasuke will finally be defending the Young Lions Cup in Osaka Pro vs. Sawako Shimono. First time the cup's been defended outside the US and also against a female.
 
#20 ·
No, but he's been out for a fair while, I think.

Can't wait for Green Ant/Quack.

Greeny has shown signs of becoming a top wrestler, so it'll be good to see how he matches up with Quack.

It's funny people outside of CHIKARA laugh about how "ridiculous" a Colony of Ants is in professional wrestling, when Fire and Green are two of the best in-ring in CHIKARA.
 
#23 ·
It's probably because he's had more chances in singles recently but I like Fire better solo then Soldier. Since Green/Quack is at the top of the card I'm interested to see what tags there will be since I doubt they'd do Envoy/F.I.S.T. for the titles and not have that as the main event.
 
#24 ·
CHIKARA has another match set for our Season 11 premiere in Easton, PA. Archibald Peck will compete against Hallowicked for the first time ever! Veronica (Archibald’s valet) issued an ultimatum at the end of 2011 – Archibald must improve his win/loss record, or she’s gone!
Interesting to see where this goes... I reckon this could have something to do with the Touchdown gimmick.
 
#30 ·
I understand that now with a singles belt they will have a focus on singles competition as well but jesus....two tag matches and not a single trio match for their opening show....weird. Also, where are UMB, Frightmare and Kingston? I would be hoping that they in some way will be part of the final match possibly. Good card set up so far, but I might have done things a little differently....but then again I watch the shows so what do I know. Also, Kobald did a fabulous promo, could be a the start of great things
 
#33 ·
Well it looks like the card's full for the opener (maybe one more match) and since Quack/Green Ant has the top spot I doubt Kingston will wrestle on the card. Still looks like a good card to me. Apparently for the Reading show they want to do FIST/Envoy for the tag titles but they may have to replace Gargano if he isn't better by then.
