Huh, so they aren't just killing off characters I like, they're doing whole damn tournaments as well?!

Its a running gag guys. Over on the CHIKARA Forums they're calming the storm so figure I may as well. They tweet this every year.

It's hilarious how they get people with that every year. Like, even people who watched Chikara for years still fall for that.

I don't remember them saying it before... but I am a casual viewer of CHIKARA and don't follow their social media stuff outside of here

Oddly enough, the only year they didn't make that tweet and said that there was going to be a KOT the following year...2012. And we all know what happened in 2013. Also, hi.

REALLY sad to hear this. Not to troll or whatever, but he was one of the few Chikara guys I was really into/a big fan of.

It just sucks to be an insect right now... I hope this isn't the end, rather merely a transition.

I'm completely bummed that UMB is being forced to retire. He was honestly one of my favorite characters in CHIKARA (and a dear friend... or two... or pretty much everyone I know that follows CHIKARA's favorite by a mile) and his presence in-ring will be missed. I do hope, though, that he becomes a permanent fixture in the commentary booth for years to come and can still have a hand in the company that his blood, sweat, and tears built over the years.

That really sucks!
I hope he sticks around CHIKARA...even if it's just commentary or something.

So that pares the original class down to Icarus and Wicked, right?
