Anyone else a fan of the promotion?

[redoneja]

Never seen it before, read about it though. Watched the video and while I respect the workers, it just isn't my style of prowrestling.

[Mister Sinister]

Lol at the guy reading the New Paper while doing a Camel Clutch!

[NeanderCarl]

I liked the sextuplet stunner. Amusing.

[Blitz]

Looked at the website, never seen any matches.

Interesting gimmicks, tho.

[Dave Youell]

Jay Phoenix doesn't get along with them :)

Aye! They're a fine promotion if they be yer style. Here's one of me favorite odd one-on-one matches they be doin. Mike Quackenbush vs. Claudio Castiliogni.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Someone should show this to Vermaat, so he can see how NEW and INNOVATIVE Rey Mysterio's current style is.

I've read about Chikara Pro, and I am 90% sure that if I saw THE BEAR~! maul a referee, I would mark the fuck out.

I think it is a great light-hearted promotion that knows how to have fun as well as put on some quality matches. The next time the WWE thinks about reviving the Juniors Division, they should just hire a bunch of Chikara guys and let them go at it.

[Mr. Nerfect]

HAHAHAHAHAHA! If the WWE recap shows were like this, I'd watch them every week! Showing the matches in full would have made it even better:

I've heard about it but never seen it. Hero & Claudio are the tag champs at the moment aren't they?

[Funky Fly]

Sloppy and terrible. Dude, I like a good spot fest, but that was just wrong.

[Mr. Monday Morning]

This needs bumping. More people need to be exposed to CHIKARA. Or have CHIKARA exposed to them, I'm not sure which way around it should be. It's not the greatest technical exhibition promotion ever but it is fun and frequently hilarious stuff.

The Quackenbush - Claudio match from a few posts above is still on YouTube <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96GCXvrWbhE">here</a> Czech it out

Never seen it before, read about it though. Watched the video and while I respect the workers, it just isn't my style of prowrestling.

I've actually watched a little more of the CHIKARA stuff on youtube and its grown on me despite my original comment upon viewing it. It's just good fun entertainment.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Entertainment wrestling can be amazing. Hence why I love DDT (Dynamic Dream Team)

Also why the Flordia Bros were amazing.

I haven't seen nearly as much as I want to of it, but I've seen enough to mark out like a madman anytime somebody even mentions Chikara.

[Dorkchop]

Seems like a lot of fun.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Some tycoon needs to come along and market this shit. Seriously, everyone knows wrestling is fake (which is the stance I think WSX should take), but if you market it so that it is just "who can do the most awesome stuff, and create the most entertaining characters" it could take off.

[Blitz]

Castagnoli/Quack was a good match.

[Blitz]

Also, saw a highlight video with a guy in a dragon costume doing a spinning tailwhip off the turnbuckle.

That was awesome.

[Mr. Monday Morning]

Dragon Dragon :love:

[hb2k]

Not my style of wrestling at all. I hate it, in fact.

[Mr. Monday Morning]

Thank you for that revealing contribution.

[Steve The Pirate]

Also it has UltraMantis Black and Commisioner Bob Saget, making it a thousand times better than any other federation in the world.

[Mr. Monday Morning]

Ultramantis Black is like the Jon Lovitz of color commentary

[Destor]

Ultramantis Black is like the Jon Lovitz of color commentaryHarsh

[Steve The Pirate]

Ultramantis Black is like the Jon Lovitz of color commentary
HOW DARE YOU. Seriously with all of these horrible commentators... Excalibur = UltraMantis Black > ALL

[BigDaddyCool]

OMG, that is some corny ass shit.

[redoneja]

Just subscribed to CHIKARA's Podcast A-Go-Go

[Mr. Monday Morning]

The Lovitz thing was meant to be complimentary :o

[Better Than You]

I gotta say, that's the worst name for a company ever.
