Now, I'm not a day-to-day CHIKARA fan like a lot of guys on this board, but I watch the podcast fairly regularly.
Lately, I've been seein' a lot of hate on Storm, saying he should hang it up, or at least unmask.
If you ask me, he's still got a lot left in the tank. Did he do something wrong to earn your hatred?

You only watch the podcasts, you've never seen a whole Shane Storm match I assume. How can you say he has a lot left in the tank under these circumstances and your lack of knowledge of the product?
he is just not a good wrestler. Plus he is fat and out of shape, and his mask is ridiculously stupid and unfunny. Plus he keeps getting pushed.

He hasn't done anything right to earn our adulation, yet is forced down our throats. Or would be, if we watched much CHIKARA. Which I don't. Because Shane Storm is there and suckin' up the joint. He's the biggest sucky suck that ever sucked. Oh, I have to go because my damn weiner kids are listening.

I was just curious is all. And now I understand.

I remember the first time I saw any Chikara he was in one of the matches and I was like "Who let the fat kid play with the skinny guys?"

I think, if Shane Storm was out of the main event scene in Chikara, he would be a lot more tolerable. But as it stands, when you have Jigsaw, Quack, Hallowicked, Chris Hero, Claudio Castagnoli, Icarus, Akuma, Larry Sweeney, and Shane Storm, Storm is the obvious odd man out. It's not that he's all that bad, although he's far from great, it's that he's way outclassed by his peers.

Would a new mask help?

Maybe one with cotton candy pink colored hair? It helped people like Boogeyman a little more when he did a redesign on his makeup.

Eh, I honestly don't mind the "Traffic regulator" gimmick, and it has led to some moderately humorous moments, but I do think some kind of gimmick change is in order.
