8) Adam Cole (c) def. Drake Younger to retain PWG World Championship. Cole wins with a handful of tights.

Also with his win I hope this means more Gargano in PWG. I've wanted him in the company for a while now. not just "no" not just "hell no!" but "HELL F***ING NO!!!" Why not? Seriously, did the guy piss in your cereal or something? Why do you hate him so much? It's ridiculous.

So much for these Adam Cole WWE rumors. Just as I figured, as WWE hasn't signed anybody from that tryout camp he attended. So was that whole thing just a waste of time. Maybe there were too many Indy wrestlers there and not enough college athletes for WWE's tastes. Never believe the news sites when they say someone from other companies is WWE bound. They are wrong most of the time.

Brian Kendrick was there, but didn't wrestle.
Would love to see him & London team up again to face some new teams.

Seriously, I wasn't thrilled about it this weekend but have this be it, please. Keep Gargano far, far away from PWG. He's already infected CHIKARA in a big, bad way. I don't need him in PWG too.
Knowing Kendrick was there makes me sad, as I wish he would've wrestled. Even have some thrown together tag match with London & him maybe.
Also relieved that Cole went over Younger. I liked Younger initially in PWG but if this Sami feud is where he's heading in terms of his direction in matches, I can pass.

I don't watch a lot of Gabe stuff, but what's so wrong with Gargano?

Actually, I do hope Gargano comes to PWG more just so I can enjoy some people's really overblown reactions like he molested their dogs or something.

Seriously, the hatred of Gargano should be stuck in 2009. Dude has come a long way since then, he's even admitted as much, and whilst he's not the best worker around right now, he's in the mid-to-upper tier. I'd be happy to book him for any show, and a show is better off for having him on it.

I don't watch a lot of Gabe stuff, but what's so wrong with Gargano? the fact that it wasn't the "cream rising to the top", but the fact Gabe took a less known wrestler and shoved him down everyone's throat so he could say he "made" him. the biggest break Gargano ever got is that Jon Moxley signed with WWE. he is a lamer version of Chuck Taylor and while me may have (eventually) stepped up to the plate while Freedom Gate Championship, that doesn't change the fact that he was very forcefully shoved down our throats. as for not wanting him in PWG, Ring of Honor is the only major indy promotion that is Gargano-free and i'd like PWG to stay that way. Gargano gets brought into other promotions and because he's Gabe's pet he gets pushed really hard and gets put over instead of other guys when he shouldn't. $20 says the only reason Gargano was every brought into CHIKARA was because Gabe pushed them in order to make him seem credible (similar to bringing in Moxley to FIP and having him win the FIP World Championship over Roderick Strong in his debut). he should have never been put into F.I.S.T. and if he and Chuck Taylor were ever destined to win the Campeonatos (twice, winning it back from the team that defeated them for it in their first defense), they should have done it under a different team name. Johnny Gargano is a large reason about why i haven't been following CHIKARA all that much for the last few years, and i don't want PWG to end up the same way.

He is pure apathy for me, personally. If others like him, good for them. But for me...the guy puts me to sleep, everything is so boring and generic about him. Oh, look, he used a 90's reference. Oh, look, he did a flip. Oh, look, he's riffing Chuckie T/Alex Shelley hardcore. Rinse and repeat.
I just find nothing interesting about him, he's a black hole for me. And, even in the whacky world of CHIKARA he tends to suck the life out of a match for me.

Ah, Johnny was fine. The match he and Chuck had with the RockNes Monsters was really fun.

I coulda swore I saw him at Chikara shows long before DGUSA was even a thing. I remember first hearing of him when he was booked in a YLC one year. I don't like him though, chiefly those stupid f***ing faces he makes and the fact that he's a lamer Chucky T or Alex Shelley

Without having any prior knowledge of who Gargano was before he arrived at PWG on Friday night, I'll say I thought he was alright. The crowd liked him, and I wouldn't mind seeing him come back myself.

It's strange to me that Gargano is singled out by Chikara fans as a bad wrestler when he's nowhere near the worst wrestler in the company. He's not even the worst in the 3-man stable he's in.

I guess 3,000 miles makes a difference. It seems Chikara fans hate the Bucks and Gargano while everybody out here loves to hate the Bucks and so far have warmed to Gargano.

In my defense, I love the Bucks in PWG, I even liked them as Generation Me in TNA. But in ROH and in CHIKARA? Blah. They lose alot of their sizzle in those promotions.

It's just funny seeing Chikara fans squirm when the Bucks make an appearance for the company. This was especially true(and even more hilarious) when they were CDP.

I think Ricochet/Swann have stolen SSB's thunder, much like SSB did from RockNES in 2012.
