As laid out in Snowflake’s blog yesterday, at “Top Banana”, Argus and his partners in the Snake Pit, Ophidian and Shynron, will face off with all three members of the Battleborn (Snowflake, “Juke Joint” Lucas Calhoun & Missile Assault Man). We also saw in Snowflake’s blog that Kevin Condron is just beneath the surface. Come December 5th, it will be quite interesting to see just what will become of the former Kid Cyclone.

{THE REPTILIAN HAS SPOKEN! My, my, Argus, you certainly are brave, aren’t you? What makes you think I would lower myself down to your level to even waste my time with you? AGAIN, for that matter??}

Please help me.

{It’s no wonder you’re frustrated. Look at where your snake has led you so far! You lost your little Challenge of the Immortals tourney that you were so boastful about being chosen for.}

Your voice... It’s the first human voice I’ve heard since September 28th, 2015.

{Meanwhile, every permutation of Snowflake & the Battleborn is one win away from number one contendership for the Campeonatos de Parejas.}

What day is it?

{At King of Trios, My Battleborn dominated former Tag Team Champions, Grand Champions, even the Bullet Club. What exactly did you do?}

What year is it?

{Oh right, you sparred with the snake before the event. He used you to prepare himself for greater things and to make himself look grand in front of our audience. He also made you look foolish.}

You heard me the other night. You spoke to me.

{I refuse to fight you again, Argus. You simply don’t deserve the collateral fame you’ll undoubtedly receive from a one on one match with me. Though we all know how desperately you need it.}

It’s so dark in here, Argus. I don’t know if my eyes are opened or closed.

{Speaking of collateral, I do enjoy a bit of collateral damage from time to time…}

You have to fight him.

{So I propose this: let’s do battle like hooligans instead. Let’s hurt each other. Let’s get some other people hurt. Let’s not make this about you and I. Let’s make it a family affair!}

He will lie to you.

{Bring your fellow reptilians, I’ll bring my Battleborn. By the time we’re done and your partners’ careers have been ended, you will realize, that like us, you too graduated into perpetual war…}

He will deceive you.

{You too were given a mask and fatigues that you didn't understand}

But he can be defeated.

{You too... are Battleborn.}

Please help me. I don't want to be alone anymore.

Ophidian helps train Argus for “Top Banana” and the potential challenge of Snowflake!

Argus blog, 11.10.2015

This one is lizard enough to admit that he walked into New York City's "Colony Collapse" to face Kevin Condron a little bit too headstrong. Knowing Condron through the Wrestle Factory, his days as Kid Cyclone, and eventual emergence at last year's Season Finale, this one considered he had everything figured out...until Snowflake arrived.

We'd always been growing apart...

When Kid Cyclone wanted to form an army to fight The Flood, it was Kevin Condron in disguise feeding Equinox and Create-A-Wrestler to a pack of wolves. This one kept his head down and did not stray from his path.

When the time came that this one was drafted to Snake Pit and Condron was dismissed from Challenge of The Immortals, Battleborn broke away from conventions and rose from the ashes of the war for CHIKARA's survival. This one kept his focus on the tournament at hand and did not stray from the path.

Finally, the stars aligned to have this one meet Kevin Condron in the ring in New York City. After a month of self-loathing due to hypocrisy, Condron seemed to this one to be such an easy opponent. This one picked up his head, deviated from the path and as such was picked apart by Snowflake.

This one has refocused and trained to recover from that sore defeat. Through a new perspective this one pleas : Snowflake, dispatching of this one was not much a challenge, nor a great display for your brilliant ego. Could you not see fit to square off once again?

A grudge match between Icarus and Snowflake rounds out the card for “Key Decisions” this Saturday night in Reading, PA. Icarus still has a score to settle with Snowflake coming off of King of Trios, since he wasn’t able to do much damage to him at “Justice is Blind.” Not only that, but both competitors enter this match with 2 points, meaning the winner will have earned themselves a shot at the CHIKARA Grand Championship. Who will it be?

“Key Decisions” - Saturday, November 7th -  Reading, PA

3) Challenge of the Immortals: Princess Kimberlee/El Hijo del Ice Cream [Crown & Court] vs. Ophidian/Argus [Snake Pit]
