Upcoming Chikara Shows & News


CHIKARA kicked off it's 7th season of live events in style at King of Trios, and we're proud to announce that next month we'll be back on the road, visiting familiar haunts in both Philly and Hellertown. After eliminating Mike Quackenbush from the King of Trios tournament, El Pantera, the ageless lucha wonder, indicated that he felt he was next in line for a shot at the NWA World Junior Heavyweight title, and apparently the NWA Board of Directors, feeling pressure from the new NWA Mexico affiliate, have agreed. This championship bout will headline our Hellertown card, that will also see the 2nd meeting of The Colony's Worker Ant against Vin Gerard. The confirmed matches thus far for Saturday evening, April 19th:
.
~FOR THE NWA WORLD JUNIOR TITLE~
Mike Quackenbush (Champion) vs. El Pantera (Challenger)
.
~REMATCH FROM JANUARY~
Worker Ant vs. Vin Gerard
.
More matches will be announced shortly. Also coming your way this week will be the official Smart Mark Video release of our massive King of Trios tournament! All 3 nights are coming your way - and you can see the tournament for yourself, or relive the many memories that came with the biggest tournament of all time. It's all there - from Mecha Mummy's mecha-hand to the surprise arrival of WCW favorite Glacier! Witness the rampage of ROH's Bobby Dempsey, and thrill to the entrance of legendary WWF tag champs Demolition Ax and Smash! See the terrifying team-up of UltraMantis Black and Kaiju Big Battel's own Dr. Cube! Observe the antics to be had when plugging a controller into Player Uno's trunks! See the long overdue reunion of the masters of the mat as Jorge "Skayde" Rivera returns to CHIKARA to fight side-by-side with "Lightning" Mike Quackenbush! Marvel at the timeless strut competition with Larry Sweeney taking on former "Akeem," the infamous One Man Gang! Rally behind the likes of the Soul Touchaz, the uber-oily Michael Nakazawa, IPW:UK's Kartel, and a cornucopia of grapplers you won't see anywhere else! 84 wrestlers across 31 matches await you all in living color and true stereo sound!
.
In the month of May, we'll be heading to New England for a pair of shows - including our Massachusetts debut! Unfortunately, our original destination, Worcester, has seen our chosen venue close down, and we have moved our Friday, May 23rd card to Framingham. Complete information is posted below. Any advance tickets issued for the Worcester event will be honored in Framingham, or if need be, a refund will be issued to the ticket holder. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Advance tickets for our next 6 live events are on sale right now! Visit our online store and pick up your copy of the first issue of the CHIKARA comic book (Season 7, Volume 1)!
