Also, going by what some other Canadian wrestlers have had to say about LuFisto over the years... ...Even if Shane was in character, even ignoring how LuFisto essentially stole fans' money, his tweet might've been justified. And, I say that as a major fan of hers in the ring. I think she have the money back.

I'm really asking here. Is CHIKARA still a thing? Did I hear that Mike Quackenbush is no longer involved? I don't really follow the indies that closely, but this is the last thing I heard about CHIKARA.

It's just doing a rather ambiguous, fairly meta, viral game style storyline right now that's heavily dividing the fanbase. Quackenbush is "retired", CHIKARA is "dead", and so on.

Meanwhile WWE has a midget wrestler in a bull outfit paired with Matadores and WWE has a wrestler with a cobra sock puppet which is influenced by Indian flutes playing 'Snake Charmer' music. Not to mention this man with the cobra sock putter hangs out with a giant and a little person. At least the spirit of Chikara is still alive in some ways.

I wouldn't necessarily call that the spirit of CHIKARA. But I get what you mean.
I don't know, I'm enjoying it, it's definitely something different. And, the Wrestling Is shows essentially substitute any missing CHIKARA shows for the year, more or less.
I am interested as to what they have planned for the next season though. After all this hype, after all this build, it's got to be something big.

has anyone ever noticed that if you Google "Weeping Atlas Cedars" that the images all look like the Swamp Monster?

So if you went and filled out your info on the SaveCHIKARA website, check your mail in the coming weeks. They are sending a care package. But while a sticker and a comic is cool, something else is interesting. I suck at finding coordinates, haha.

So I just want to make a comment. When I got angry at the Icarus/Kingston finish and was screaming about getting a refund you all laughed at me. IT IS ACCEPTED BEHAVIOR NOW I WAS IN THE RIGHT HAHAHAHAHAHAH

I still don't think you were in the right, personally. But that's probably because I was fine with the finish and was interested in where all of this was going.

This is interesting... Coincidental timing after the backlash he's got on Twitter recently for comments he's made about female wrestlers, particularly LuFisto. I hear it's Steen screwing around as usual, though I also hear that Shane might be injured after a real bad fall at the WiAwesome show. So if you went and filled out your info on the SaveCHIKARA website, check your mail in the coming weeks. They are sending a care package. But while a sticker and a comic is cool, something else is interesting. I suck at finding coordinates, haha. Wait, wait, waaaaaaaait! I thought only the folks who got in on the eBay thing were getting those! I'll have to watch my mail if they're going out to everyone on the SaveCHIKARA list...
