YOUNG LIONS CUP CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

7. Icarus defeated Young Lions Cup Champion ”Lightning“ Mike Quackenbush when Icarus pinned Quackenbush following a Spear! ******

ICARUS BECOMES THE NEW YOUNG LIONS CUP CHAMPION!

---

* - The love sick Hallowicked played little part in the match, spending most of his time moping on the apron with the plastic flower gifted to him by Daizee Haze, as Delirious grew more and more frustrated with his partner, a frustration he took out on Mantis and Crossbones!

---

** - “The King of Diamonds” Eddie Kingston, calling the contest from the Commentation Station, left his post as the match ended and entered the squared circle. Kingston attacked the prone Jigsaw, still down and out after absorbing three crushing stunners from El Hijo del Ice Cream!

“Lightning” Mike Quackenbush hit the ring together with Sugar Dunkerton, scheduled to meet Kingston next on the card in a singles encounter! As Quack helped a groggy Jigsaw back to the locker room, Dunkerton laid into a shocked “King of Diamonds” as the bell rang to start their one-on-one match!

---

*** - After grabbing the initiative early and dominating with a flurry of hard strikes, Dunkerton made just one mistake and got nailed with a vicious Yakuza Kick!

After getting his arm raised in victory, Kingston laid into the KO’d Dunkmeister verbally, scolding him for getting involved in the King’s business with Jigsaw. Eddie retreated when Dasher Hatfield sprinted down to ringside to attend to his Throwbacks team mate.

---

**** - At the climax of a hard fought, very competitive match, Ophidian and Fire Ant crawled to their respective corners looking for a hot tag! “The Venomous & Vile Serpent from the Nile” made it to his corner first but his partner Amasis was too busy jaw-jacking with ring announcer Carolina Jim to take the tag!

Ophidian tried to slither out of the ring to force a Lucha tag but the new legal man for The Colony, Soldier Ant grabbed his serpentine opponent, hoisted him up onto his shoulders and hit his TKO finish to score the 1-2-3 and another victory for the inhabitants of the Ant Hill!

---

***** - Saint was not impressed by his young tag team partner’s tactic of taking the match outside of the ring, explaining to the youngster that they could have beaten the Rudos if they’d have kept the contest clean and inside the squared circle.

Donst apologized to his veteran mentor and explained that his temper got the better of him and that it wouldn’t happen again.

---

****** - A jubilant Icarus was quickly joined in the ring by his tag partner Chuck Taylor and the team of Eddie Kingston and Claudio Castagnoli to celebrate the Rudo’s huge victory over his former trainer, “Lightning” Mike Quackenbush.

While Kingston and Castagnoli fired verbal jabs at the humbled “Master of a Thousand Holds” before booting him from the ring to the floor, the new Young Lions Cup Champion snatched the Cup from Senior Official Bryce Remsburg and gleefully showed it off to the stunned Hellertown crowd.

Calling for a mic, Icarus gloated over his fallen opponent and took great pleasure in explaining to everyone how Quackenbush’s win over him at the Young Lions Cup tournament four weeks ago was a complete fluke and that this victory tonight proved it!

The arrogant new Champion went on to brag that he would hold the Cup at least ten times longer than Quack did during his pitifully short reign!

I love that title FROG COMES TO HELLERTOWN and it's cool to see Icarus win the YLC Championship from Mike Quackenbush...

I'm so happy Icarus won!

One of my favorite things is coming up with names for my CHIKARA shows and Frog comes to Hellertown is classic. Icarus winning the YLC was a nice surprise and I like the dynamic between Saint and Donst. Looking forward to the next show.

Many thanks to Crimson Cross, Dustin and cruefan68 for the kind and positive feedback; it's gratefully received! The next show will be posted shortly!

6. Incoherence defeated ”The King of Diamonds“ Eddie Kingston & Claudio Castagnoli when Delirious pinned Kingston following the Headless Horseman!

---

* - Despite being at least as much to blame as his tag team partner for their loss, “Sweet & Sour” Larry Sweeney was quick to jump all over Daizee after the match to criticize her performance.

As Sweeney’s reprimand grew in both volume and venom, Hallowicked appeared from the locker room and stalked down to the ring. Quickly noticing his Incoherent nemesis, Sweeney hastily collected his ICW/ICWA Tex-Arkana Championship belt and made a brisk exit from the squared circle, leaving Daizee alone as Wicked climbed into the ring.

Visibly upset after her tag team partner’s tongue-lashing, Daizee was gently approached by Wicked in an awkward attempt to comfort her. “The Dark Minion of the Underworld” was rewarded with a delicate kiss to his masked cheek before Daizee bolted back to the locker room. Hallowicked was clearly disorientated after the experience as he plodded backstage accompanied by a chant of WICKED HAS A GIRLFRIEND! WICKED HAS A GIRLFRIEND!

---

** - Mid-match, “The Funky Pharaoh” challenged Generico to an impromptu Dance Off! Compelled to accept by the Chikarmy, Generico retreated to a neutral corner as Amasis donned a Michael Jackson fedora hat and a gleaming rhinestone-encrusted glove!

After showing off his dancing skills, the Osirian Portal member was solidly booed by the fans who were keen to see the Generic Luchador strut his stuff! Alas, Amasis was in no mood to be shown up by the Mexican; as soon as Generico got into position and started to feel the beat of his entrance music and the OLE! chants coming from the audience, Amasis pounced on the Tijuana native and blasted him with his special glove!

Immediately earning Amasis a disqualification, the referee gave his decision to CHIKARA ring announcer Carolina Jim who joyfully broadcast the official ruling. Taking offense to this, Amasis slid out of the ring and confronted the ring announcer in an attempt to jostle and intimidate him.

Jim bravely stood his ground as Amasis vented his frustrations and moments later El Generico, retaliating to the foul Amasis had committed during their match and wishing to protect the innocent ring announcer, exploded through the ropes with a torpedo tope that blasted “The Funky Pharaoh” into the now empty front row seats of the crowd!

Generico stood proud with Carolina Jim as Amasis, battered and bruised, collected himself and swore his revenge!

---

*** - Quality match.

---

**** - Unmistakably distressed by another loss, Donst stormed off after the match without so much as a word to his venerable tag team partner, Johnny Saint. As he reached the curtain for the locker room, the discouraged Donst looked back into the ring where Saint was picking himself up from defeat. Donst shook his head before vanishing backstage, leaving the former British, European and World Lightweight Champion perplexed and disappointed by his pupil’s petulant behaviour.

September 2, 2002: Episode 5

CHIKARA’s most senior and cutest official Bryce Remsburg here once again, at the CHIKARA Event Center and mark your calendars because in just eleven days time we’re returning to Reading, PA for our next extravaganza of a show,

”The Gigantic Vision"

Boy are we bringing with us a whole caravan of excitement to the Riverside Beneficial Association! Already signed, we have a blockbuster tag team encounter set as Sweet & Sour International will take on Incoherence!

It was in Reading just two months ago when Daizee Haze presented Hallowicked with one of her signature plastic daisies! Since then, said flowery gift has never been out of Wicked’s sight and seems to have become The Nightmare Warrior’s prized possession. We’ve seen both the ICW/ICWA Tex-Arkana Champion “Sweet & Sour” Larry Sweeney and Delirious show considerable frustration with their respective tag partners over their fleeting flirtations. This is a real powder keg of a situation and who’s to say how this match is going to go down!

---

Also signed for Reading, a grudge match that has been brewing for quite some time. Former Young Lions Cup Champion, “Lightning” Mike Quackenbush has agreed to face “The King of Diamonds” Eddie Kingston in a No Count Out, No Disqualification contest!

Has “The Master of a Thousand Holds”, in his eagerness to get even with Kingston, bitten off more than he can chew by agreeing to such a potentially violent stipulation? Will Eddie have the advantage in this dangerous type of match or can “Lightning” Mike give “The King of Diamonds” a well deserved taste of his own medicine?

---

Our colossal Main Event for Reading will feature the Young Lions Cup Champion, Icarus defending his Cup for the very first time against The Generic Luchador, El Generico!

The native of Tijuana, Mexico is an impressive 3-0 during his last three CHIKARA appearances, and is certainly a worthy contender for CHIKARA’s most prized treasure! “The Winged Ring Warrior” will be in no mood though to relinquish the Cup after capturing it in an emotional title win over his former trainer, “Lightning” Mike Quackenbush just a few weeks ago.

No doubt, this is going to be a tremendous clash and you don’t want to miss it! Log onto chikarapro.com right at this very moment while I am saying these words to you and secure your tickets for “The Gigantic Vision”!

This is Bryce Remsburg. Thank you for tuning into the CHIKARA Event Center. Meet me back here next time when we’ll be previewing the Tag World Grand Prix tournament to crown CHIKARA’s first ever Campeones de Parejas!

YOUNG LIONS CUP CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

7. El Generico defeated Young Lions Cup Champion Icarus when Generico pinned Icarus following a BRAINBUSTAAAHHH!!!

EL GENERICO BECOMES THE NEW YOUNG LIONS CUP CHAMPION!

---

* - At the climax of the match, Jigsaw had Castagnoli beat and was readying the “Snobby Swiss Aristocrat” for his Jig ‘n Tonic finisher when Taylor illegally entered the ring and smashed Jigsaw from behind with a stiff forearm blast!

Taylor’s unwarranted intervention sparked a raging eight person brawl between the two teams! Amidst the chaos, Castagnoli directed Taylor to hit Jigsaw on the floor with his feared Omega Driver / Awful Waffle piledriver! The sickening blow earned “Raccoon City’s Favorite Son” a disqualification but the damage had been done.

Taylor headed to the back with Castagnoli, arms raised in victory. “The King of Diamonds” Eddie Kingston emerged from the curtain to congratulate the two Rudos on a job well done before reaching into his pants to hand over a sizeable fistful of dollars to Taylor…

---

** - Oddly, UltraMantis Black encouraged “Young Timothy” throughout the contest despite Donst being up against Mantis‘ tag team partner, much to Donst’s consternation and dismay.

Confused by Mantis’ attention but not overly distracted, Donst made short work of “The Real Life Heavyweight Horror”. Mantis entered the ring after the match and raised Donst’s arm in victory. Donst pushed the repellent Mantis away, calling the “Angry Insect Evildoer” a weird, creepy freak of nature!

Mantis helped the battered Crossbones back to the locker room as Donst was left to wonder why the Order of the Neo Solar Temple were so fascinated with him…

---

*** - Five minutes into the contest, Daizee Haze and Hallowicked found themselves in the ring together for the first time in the match. ICW/ICWA Tex-Arkana Television Champion “Sweet & Sour” Larry Sweeney and Delirious loudly urged their respective partners to knuckle down and take the fight to their opponent.

Hallowicked, oblivious to his tag partner’s urgings, got down on one knee in the middle of the ring and took Daizee by the hand. As the crowd gasped in astonishment and Sweeney and Delirious went nuts on the apron, Daizee raised her free hand to her mouth in a gesture of shock and bewilderment!

Uttering the most romantic gibberish anyone in Reading had ever heard, Hallowicked reached into his pants and produced a moderately priced, but nonetheless charming, emerald ring and presented it to his sweetheart.

Taken aback by proceedings, Daizee looked around the building for guidance as a raucous JUST SAY YES! JUST SAY YES! chant thundered through the venue!

Fearing that his tag partner was close to accepting Hallowicked’s unlikely proposal, Sweeney interjected himself and emphatically stated that Daizee would have to choose Wicked or Sweet & Sour International and that she couldn’t have both!

Visibly torn by her dilemma, Daizee hesitated for some moments, looking down at Hallowicked and glancing back to Sweeney repeatedly while desperately trying to weight up her options. Finally, Daizee settled her gaze on Hallowicked. Gently pulling “The Dark Minion of the Underworld” to his feet, Daizee reached up on her tiptoes to kiss Wicked on his forehead before whispering, “I’m sorry” and tearfully struck the man who loves her with a crushing Heart Punch!

As Hallowicked crumpled to the mat, Sweeney ordered an emotional Daizee out of the ring so that he could make the cover but Delirious made the save before “Sweet & Sour” could get the three count and win the match!

Delirious pushed his fallen tag partner to safety and engaged in a merciless brawl with Sweeney while Daizee and Wicked attempted to recover from what had just happened.

Moments later, an unseen low blow by Sweeney on Delirious seemingly gave “Sweet & Sour” an opening to win the match but while the flamboyant TV Champion brashly played to the crowd, Delirious slipped out of the ring and forced a Lucha tag!

A livid Hallowicked entered the ring Hell bent on vindication as Sweeney begged off in his team’s corner! As “The Nightmare Warrior” came in hard off the ropes looking to decapitate Sweeney with a big boot, Sweeney pulled a distraught Daizee into the ring before he escaped to the floor!

With her mind elsewhere and Wicked unable to stop his momentum, the man from Sleepy Hollow blasted Daizee flush on the jaw with a savage running kick, instantly knocking Daizee out!

Distraught and mortified, Hallowicked screamed out in anguish while Sweeney sneakily hopped onto the apron and clobbered Wicked in the back of the head with a stiff right hand!

The semi-conscious Hallowicked staggered forward and fell on top of the still KO’d Daizee! Sweeney then skipped through the ropes and attempted to reverse the pin by positioning Daizee on top of Wicked but, having crept around the ring on the floor, Delirious grabbed Sweeney by the ankles and yanked him out of the squared circle as the referee hit the three count on Daizee and called for the bell!

---

**** - After a hard fought, exhausting battle between the two bitter foes that saw the action spill out all across the venue, Quackenbush secured an enormous win by using his tag team partner Jigsaw’s own finishing move to spoil “The King of Diamonds” night.

As Senior Official Bryce Remsburg raised “The Man of a Thousand Holds” arm in victory, Kingston blindsided Quackenbush with a cynical chop block that incapacitated the former Young Lions Cup Champion!

Letting his predatory instincts take over, Kingston began to stomp away on the fallen Tecnico, eventually kicking Quackenbush out of the ring and to the floor.

Jigsaw attempted to make the save, sprinting from the locker room down to ringside only to be cut off by Claudio Castagnoli and Chuck Taylor! Jigsaw was held back by the two Rudos as Kingston picked Quackenbush up off the floor and repeatedly dropped him over the ring barricade, injuring his ribs!

As CHIKARA officials eventually restored order, Kingston, Castagnoli and their new bought off ally Chuck Taylor celebrated their despicable actions before arrogantly returning to the locker room, accompanied by the loud boos of the disgusted Reading crowd!

---

***** - Exasperated by another loss, a disgruntled Amasis attempted to save face by challenging CHIKARA ring announcer Carolina Jim to a dance-off! After encouragement from the crowd and the victorious Throwbacks, Jim entered the ring prepared for a boogie battle with “The Funky Pharaoh”!

Startled by Jim’s reaction, Amasis nervously back peddled specifying that he wouldn’t rhumba rumble with Jim until the CHIKARA show after the upcoming Tag World Grand Prix Tournament when The Osirian Portal had been crowned Campeones de Parajas!

[Crimson Cross]

More solid ChikarAction HS and it's too bad Icarus failed to retain versus El Generico. I was disappointed the Throwbacks with SDR lost, maybe they need a boost from somewhere...
