I haven't seen any of the 2012 Chikara shows yet, but unless he magically became possessed by the spirit of Raja Lion in my past year of ignorance, there shouldn't be anything laughable about it. Green Ant is very talented, both on the technical and dramatic sides of wrestling. One of the best prospects that the Wrestle Factory has churned out in recent years. I'm surprised that it's taken him this long to get a Grand Title match, considering that they've been grooming him for it since 2011.
I'm gonna be at the top of the mountain in three years, with or without this belt. I'm gonna be the best that ever lived. And what you don't understand is, even if I don't get that far, at least I had the courage to get off my ass and try.

Kinda bittersweet weekend for Matt and I. Thanks everyone over at @chikarapro for always being such a great place to wrestle at.

He only had 4 singles matches last year because of the stupid, dragged out GEKIDO nonsense so he hasn't been "groomed" for it at all.BlackLesnar wrote:I'm surprised that it's taken him this long to get a Grand Title match, considering that they've been grooming him for it since 2011.

HE BEAT THE CHAMP IN A SINGLES CONTEST!
Also Dasher got a title shot out of nowhere.

Yeah, so why rush the title match when they can give Green Ant more wins to give him more credibility? They're jumping the gun on this match.JustSkiff wrote:HE BEAT THE CHAMP IN A SINGLES CONTEST!

Hasn't beating the Champ in a non-title match (of any kind) been a guaranteed title shot/pre-requisite for a title shot for like....ever?BTW10 wrote:Yeah, so why rush the title match when they can give Green Ant more wins to give him more credibility?

Re: CHIKARA thread.
Read what I said. Green Ant/Eddie just had their match. Wait a few months and then do the title match to build Green Ant more instead of rushing it.DXvsNWO1994 wrote:Hasn't beating the Champ in a non-title match (of any kind) been a guaranteed title shot/pre-requisite for a title shot for like....ever?
Re: CHIKARA thread.
Because the DOF is incompetent, and doesn't know how to determine challengers. So he wanted a title shot, so he gave it to Green Ant who just beat the champ.BTW10 wrote:Yeah, so why rush the title match when they can give Green Ant more wins to give him more credibility?

Also a Kingston/Green Ant title defense isn't the money defense. It doesn't really need to be built up. The money defenses are Hallowicked, Heel Jigsaw, and Quack.
Re: CHIKARA thread.
I'm not sure if people would rather see Hallowicked get a shot more than UltraMantis. Personally I'd like to see UM get a shot sometime this season.JustSkiff wrote:Also a Kingston/Green Ant title defense isn't the money defense. It doesn't really need to be built up.

Re: CHIKARA thread.
I like the idea of UltraMantis getting a shot. I've always enjoyed his character, and I actually wouldn't mind him seeing him beat Kingston & hold the belt for a bit. Maybe we'd get an UM Black vs. Delirious title match if that happens!
Re: CHIKARA thread.
Kingston's feud with Hallowicked was the best feud this company has ever done.BTW10 wrote:I'm not sure if people would rather see Hallowicked get a shot more than UltraMantis.

Re: CHIKARA thread.
It was the uniqueness of never having been done before (the match up. They do men vs women regularly) I'm curious to see how it turns out, though I doubt I'll pay money for it.BTW10 wrote:My God...DXvsNWO1994 wrote:Eddie Kingston vs. Amazing Kong has been announced for March 8th in Tampa
Re: CHIKARA thread.
I don't know if you took my post the wrong way. I'm genuinely surprised and ecstatic for this match. I don't think it'll be better than Eddie's match with Del Rey from last year, but it should be pretty damn awesome.DBSommer wrote:It was the uniqueness of never having been done before (the match up.

Re: CHIKARA thread.
I was just mentioning the necessity of emoticons with someone due to written words lacking the audio cues actual conversations have so you understand the meaning behind words that could be open to interpetation. So yes, I thought it was more complaint than ecstatic, but obviously I misinterpeted it. Sorry.BTW10 wrote:I don't know if you took my post the wrong way.
