CHIKARA began its weekly run at the
Wrestle Factory last night, Friday May
31st, in Allentown. Referee Paul Turner
oversaw the action, as 100 rabid
wrestling fans got to see the following
matches:
1) Love Bug defeated Blind Rage by
disqualification, after the official
DQ'ed
Rage for a low blow. Love Bug had things
well in hand when Rage socked him
the groin, causing the immediate disqualification.
Afterwards, a frustrated
Rage put Love Bug in the STF, until
Marshal Law chased him off.
2) Zane Madrox pinned Matt Vandal after
a legdrop from the turnbuckles.
Vandal was impressive in his CHIKARA
debut, but the extremely unorthodox
Zane
managed to win this very evenly-matched
bout.
3) UltraMantis used his Butterfly Superplex
to beat Mister ZERO. Throughout
the match, ZERO took time to read the
newspaper, and help himself to some
coffee, which infuriated the masked
hero. The surprising finish came as
ZERO
tried to scale the corner, and UltraMantis
sent him flying with his superplex.
4) Marshal Law used the Gedo Clutch
to pin Brock Singleton. These two
heavyweights blasted each other with
high impact moves throughout, and as
Singleton tried to evade the Camel Clutch,
he found himself slipped into the
Gedo Clutch for the pin.
5) The Night Shift (Blind Rage, Hallowicked,
Ichabod Slayne) upset the Black
T-shirt Squad (Reckless Youth, Don Montoya,
Mike Quackenbush) when Slayne
smashed a pumpkin over Quack's head,
leading to a pinfall by Blind Rage.
Montoya and Reckless were late arriving
from another show, so Quackenbush
began the match alone against the entire
Night Shift. Minutes later, the
remaining members of the BTS appeared,
and the six-man match changed
complexion. In the final moment, Quackenbush
used his Quackendriver on Rage,
but with the ref distracted, Slayne
cracked Quack with his pumpkin, leaving
him easy prey for Rage, and the pin.
After the match, Reckless Youth spoke
on behalf of Montoya and a
semi-conscious Quack, calling for a
re-start of the match, as it was already
10pm, due to city ordinance, the match
could not continue. Instead, Reckless
announced that next week, the BTS would
face the Night Shift in singles
matches.
