We’ve Got King vs. Kong, Title Matches & More in Tampa!

Hot on the heels of a seismic Season 12 premiere, CHIKARA heads south for “Just Shadows In The Fog.” Season 12 is already off to a hot start and March will see all your favorite stars will bring some extra heat to the Sunshine State! At all CHIKARA shows – kids 12 and under are admitted free to the event with a paying adult! Here is what we have on tap thus far:

1) For los Campeonatos de Parejas!
-Our newly crowned Campeones will make the first title defense of their second championship reign. In their first reign, 3.0 (Scott “Jagged Parker & Shane Matthews) were dethroned only one month after capturing gold, will history repeat itself in Tampa? 3.0 faces a gigantic (literally!) challenge from super-heavyweights and #1 contenders The Devastation Corporation (Max Smashmaster & Blaster McMassive). Will 3.0′s reign end just as suddenly as it started, or will the reigning champs prove history wrong and come out on top of this title mismatch?

2) King vs. Kong!
-During CHIKARA’s Season 12 premiere weekend reigning Grand Champion Eddie Kingston drew the ire of Director of Fun Wink Vavasseur, stemming from an accidental shove in Reading. In Tampa, just one night before his championship is on the line against Green Ant, Kingston will face one of his most difficult challenges to date: Amazing Kong! Is this challenge a sign of things to come for the champ from the vengeful Director of Fun?

3) For The Young Lions Cup!
-Jakob Hammermeier gets a second chance at the prestigious Young Lions Cup when he takes on “Mr. Touchdown” Mark Angelosetti, in Tampa. Hammermeier lost in the tournament to crown the Young Lions Cup Champion, but will look to rectify that loss by defeating Angelosetti, who has been dominant in his defense of the cup. Jakob will be looking to score the upset, claim the championship, and be the one proclaiming “It’s Good!” on March 8th.

4) First Time Ever!
-CHIKARA Season 11 showed that Sean Waltman still has it, and can hang with the best that the roster has to offer. In Tampa, Waltman will face a great challenge when he matches up with 2012 King of Trios winner Hallowicked, for the first time ever! Waltman and Hallowicked will look to put on a show for the ages at “Just Shadows in the Fog.”
