[Mecha Mummy 0]

Why Milanito Collection AT? I don't quite get why that guy is working Northeast Indy dates as opposed to the Toryumon X trainees who are assumedly still in Mexico and much better, like Hiromi Horiguchi and Kanjyouro Matsuyama.

[Guest jobsquad]

my guess is the best already had work for the dates in mexico. remember even the most bottom feeding lucha indy out draws 99% of us indys.

Dave Prazak announced on the CZWFans board that he will be debuting as Chikara's new play-by-play commentator at the Tag Team Grand Prix.

[HollywoodSpikeJenkins 0]

Arik Cannon & Claudio Castagnoli

 

 

 

The first thing I thought when I saw those names where "who are they going to team with?" Awesome.

[Cuban Linx 0]

These shows just keep looking better and better. Hopefully with a show this loaded they get some bigger crowds in, but either way it should be two awesome nights of wrestling. Prazak doing commentary rocks, and i suddenly have a great desire to see Necro Butcher vs. The Bear at some point in the tournament.

Dave Prazak announced on the CZWFans board that he will be debuting as Chikara's new play-by-play commentator at the Tag Team Grand Prix.

Now that is good news. Not surprising, considering how close IWA:MS and CHIKARA have been working, but certainly good.

 

Big Daddy (Shirley Doe & Darkness Crabtree)

 

 

Awesome name.

[Guest jobsquad]

two more teams

 

Perfect Strangers: Trik Davis & Emil Sitoci

Team IWA-Mid South: Jimmy Jacobs & Danny Daniels

Well, I'm sold.

 

[Cuban Linx 0]

Jacobs and Daniels have really good chemistry against each other, if they're half as good as a team they should be a great addition.

 

Chikara for promotion of the year so far based on the strength of these two shows alone.
