Makes sense that another team from Jacobs' group would get in, so they'd have a presence in both brackets. Interesting choice, though. Would've thought Ares and Nokken or Qefka and Grimsley for the spot.
Thinking either The Colony (Big Blu's redebut as Worker II?) or possibly Icarus and Kid Cyclone for the last spot.

Has anyone tried to stream anything from SMVOD via Chromecast? I'm looking into one for next month.

I'm waiting for both the weather to stop being screwy and for the Ashes DVD (and hopefully them following through on the poster) to do any ordering, but they're making it really hard to choose shirts to go with it.

Oh yeah, gotta get that Ashes DVD. If the stuff we saw on Youtube was just snippets, the main course should be AMAZEBALLS.

Does anyone get the feeling since the debut show is already sold out that they probably aren't going to announce a full card for it?

I think we'll probably see a roll-out similar to that of NPWD 2014 where the match announcements happen relatively close to the show in order to convince people on the fence and just generally to keep it in the popular consciousness. Though I do hope future cards have matches announced in their typically timely fashion, once the big return angle and iPPV factors aren't present.

Looking through past CHIKARA threads, I saw that the first match for Never Compromise was announced to the public on May 8, which was 25 days before the show. We're a month out from YOLT on this coming Friday, so don't worry. I'm sure we'll get matches announced soon. If not this week, then definitely next week is when I see them starting to roll them out.
Actually, there's a good discussion starter right there. What do you think will be announced? Icarus/Eddie rematch? All titles forfeited a'a Russo in WCW 2000? All men wearing hats?

I think the main event will be the Icarus/Eddie rematch for the Grand Championship with Icarus winning. At the end, like those scenes with Conrad and Wink and those guys taking the Eye of Tyr, we'll see a scene where Jimmy Jacobs gives Eddie his card. So here, Icarus will now be the top dog defending CHIKARA from The Flood while the big question all season will be if Eddie gives in to his bitterness and betrays CHIKARA or manages to pull himself back together.

The Colony will come out without AssailAnt, leaving the crowd to change for him or Worker Ant, and then we hear Stan Hansen's theme, and out walks the NEW Worker Ant.
