The CHIKARA Special

The war between CHIKARA and the Crucible is heating up in the aftermath of National Pro Wrestling Day! JUSTIN and Kevin run down this Saturday’s CHIKARA event, “Stem The Hemorrhaging of Polka”, in great detail, with very few agreements, a look at the possible future of this war, as well as the future of many tag teams. Additionally, JUSTIN gives his thoughts on the Young Lions Cup XVI event, some roster page talk, Mortimer, and more! Getchu one!
