For those who haven't seen Adam Cole wrestle yet, he's damn good. Moved from Panama to train in CZW. Prolly not as good of a technical wrestler as his partner Tyler Veritas, whose been gone for a bit, but is a damn good seller and has some impressive moves. He's going into his 2nd full year as a wrestler.
Plus, his finisher is the Carona Kick.

Hank Scorpio
He has the looks of Andre the Giant, and the strength of Barry Windham. Not to mention he's a hero to a few armadillos, a kangaroo and a small herd of bison.

Personally, I like the looks of this year's tourney better than last year's.
...Not that I didn't MIND Trik Davis beating Shane Hollister *bleccccch*...

New blog from C. Red of DST: 7/9/2010: What's good, CHIKARMY? It’s ya boy, "the urban sensation," C.RED!!! I hope that everyone had a great 4th of July. I know we did! Da Soul Touchaz are still shootin’ fireworks & celebrating, not just from the holiday but from our Midwest excursion!! We rolled into Michigan just a little apprehensive. Not being in CHIKARA for a while, we didn’t know what response we would get. It didn’t make it any better that we were competing against the reigning King of Trios, the BDK trio of Claudio, Ares & Tursas. For months, I’ve watched the war they've waged and have been studying, trying to find a weakness in the Bruderschaft armor. We’re still not sure if we found one, but HEY!!! When Jaz cradled Claudio up and the ref counted...1, 2, 3. Nobody thought we could pull that off! No complaints here!!! In fact, we partied in Detroit all night long!!! Next stop: Cleveland, OH. The task: the beloved insects of CHIKARA, The Colony!!! They are one of the most resilient trios around and our job wasn’t going to be any easier than the night before. The match kept us on our feet - constantly reshuffling our game plan until Willie could “drop the bomb.” Unbelievable!!! DST went 2-0 for the weekend and the party continued! Some thought Lebron James even got in the act with all the partying we did. In under 48 hours, we beat the six guys that were in the finals of King of Trios 2010! Not too bad for a group that didn't seem to "make the grade" this year. It's time for me and the boys to show the whole world that Da Soul Touchaz are among the finest trios anywhere in wrestling. So line 'em up for us in Batlimore and Brooklyn come September. We got the momentum, and we gotta keep this thang movin’ and touch some more souls! The DST are comin' to rock the East Coast!!! Holla! RED

Still can't believe that out of all people to beat the BDK it had to be the Touchaz, cradle or not

NEWS OF THE DAYNew Chikara YLC Participant: New Event: Final New England Card of 2010! "Rendezvous at Big Gulch" Sunday, October 24th Hamden, CT New Blog from Icarus: 7/12/2010: Good day, F.I.S.T. fans. Allow me first to apologize for this interruption. I do, like many of you, appreciate the comforts of everyday routine - the security of the familiar, the tranquility of repetition. I enjoy them as much as any dude. But in the spirit of commemoration, thereby those important events of the past usually associated with someone's death or the end of some awful bloody struggle, or a celebration of a nice holiday...I thought we could mark July 25th, by taking some time out of our daily lives to sit down and have a little chat. I suspect even now, bureaucrats are shouting into telephones, and boys with snarky comments will soon be on their way to YouTube to post their unwanted comments directly from their mom's basements. Why? Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen - the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with F.I.S.T, isn't there? Cruelty. Injustice. Intolerance. Oppression. These are the ideals F.I.S.T. truly represents. And where once we had the freedom to destroy, to act and speak as we saw fit, we now have in-fighting and petty bickering tearing apart the very foundation of our team. How did this happen? Who is to blame? Well, certainly there are those more responsible than others, (and they will be held accountable,) but again, truth be told, if we’re looking for the guilty, we need only look into a mirror. I don’t know why we did it. I don’t know if there were those who were afraid. Who wouldn't be? Look at what we've faced in our heyday. War, terror, hair loss, stupid foreigners. Fear got the best of us, and in our panic we turned from a team that was unstoppable...into a team that could easily be overwhelmed. We promised chaos, we promised victory, and all we commanded, fans, was your silent, obedient fear. I seek to end the bickering amongst us. I wish to put aside the finger-pointing and in-fighting, so we might remind the world of what it has forgotten. More than seven years ago, two great citizens established the name of F.I.S.T. Our hope was to teach the world that "fairness," "justice" and "freedom" are only for those willing to destroy the weak in order to taste it. So my fellow teammates, if the victories, championships and accolades of the past few years seem forgotten to you, then I would suggest you allow the twenty-fifth of July to pass unmarked. But if you see what I see and feel as I feel, then I ask you to stand beside me a few weeks from tonight, across from the members of Dragon Gate, and together we shall give these stupid foreigners, all of CHIKARA, and the entire world a twenty-fifth of July that shall never, ever be forgotten. I
