Awesome opener!
REY DE VOLADORES TOURNAMENT SEMIFINAL ELIMINATION FOUR WAY MATCH: Jigsaw vs. Lince Dorado vs. Equinox vs. Ruckus- 6.25/10
Lince looked like a star in this match.
ORDER OF THE NEO-SOLAR TEMPLE BACKSTAGE- way too goofy to be enjoyable.
THE ORDER OF THE NEO-SOLAR TEMPLE vs. DREW GULAK, ANDY SUMNER, & TIM DONST- 5/10
An entertaining match, but an otherwise unremarkable pro debut for Tim Donst.
LARRY SWEENEY PROMO- okay
LARRY SWEENEY vs. SHANE STORM- 5.5/10
FIRE ANT vs. LANCE STEEL- 4.75/10
EDDIE KINGSTON PROMO- great
EDDIE KINGSTON vs. HALLOWICKED- no rating. Great segment.
THE COLONY (Worker Ant & Soldier Ant) vs. BLK OUT (Joker & Sabian)- 5.5/10
Decent match with a good post-match beatdown. Quack has been great on commentary all night, but he really seemed to just lose it here.
REY DE VOLADORES TOURNAMENT FINALS: Chuck Taylor vs. Lince Dorado- 7.5/10
GREAT match with great storytelling. Once again, Lince looks like a freakin’ star.
SINGLES MATCH WITH MIKE QUACKENBUSH AS SPECIAL GUEST REFEREE IN WHICH IF CLAUDIO WINS, HERO MUST BECOME HIS BUTLER, BUT IF HERO WINS, CLAUDIO MUST REJOIN THE KINGS OF WRESTLING: Claudio Castagnoli vs. Chris Hero (w/Larry Sweeney)- 8.25/10
GREAT finish! I hate Hero SO MUCH right now!
POST-MATCH SEGMENT- great! I can’t wait to see Anniversario. Quack vs. Hero!
ICARUS PROMO- okay
2 OUT OF 3 FALLS MATCH FOR THE CAMPEONATOS DE PAREJAS: Gran Akuma & Icarus(c) vs. Cheech & Cloudy- 8.5/10
An absolutely awesome match. It is impossible not to get behind Cheech and Cloudy after what happens in this match. An important warning, though… don’t watch this match if you are squeamish about bodily fluids.
Overall, an awesome show from CHIKARA. Great action, good fun, and a very strong top of the card.
