So, let's sweeten the pot a little bit more, shall we? Every few years, we dust off a CHIKARA tradition and give it a new spin. It's
called the "Golden Dream" match, and it's a rare occasion when we assemble previous holders of the
Young Lions Cup, and toss 'em together in one big match. We had one
at "Negative Balance" back in 2005, and we did it again on the final
night of Young Lions Cup V in 2007 as well.
The first of these "Golden Dream" matches featured four holders of the Young
Lions Cup. The next incarnation of the match featured six former YLC
champs. With the cup about to be vacated once again, that esteemed list has grown considerably. In fact, this past year saw the
YLC change hands more times than ever before. That says a lot about
the type of competition vying for the trophy, and about the men who held it - Equinox, Fire Ant, and although it
pains me to say it, even Vin Gerard.
So, this year, we've come up with something special as our "Golden Dream" match, and it's a bout the likes of which you've never
seen before. There will be three team captains, and they will be the last three men to hold the YLC:
Equinox, Vin Gerard and Fire Ant. Each will pick two partners to join them, and each must be a former YLC champ. Then, on
Sunday, August 16th at the ECW Arena, we'll have another "Golden Dream" match...the first ever Triple Threat Trios Match in
CHIKARA history!
Oh, and Icarus, I've read your bogus complaints about the lucha de apuesta. The most blatant interference of all
was on the part of Gran Akuma. Case closed.

CHIKARA: Wrestling Done Right
6/29/2009:
It's Young Lions season here at CHIKARA, my favorite part of summer! We've been busy as bees here at the CHIKARA office of late,
lining up awesome surprises for the loyal members of the CHIKARMY. New CHIKARA Yearbook? You got it.
Fan Appreciation Night in Reading? You got it. Free gifts for every fan in
attendance...ya can't beat that with a stick! Add to all that, the vast array of exciting, young talent making their way to the seventh
annual Young Lions Cup? And the cherry on top? The mini-luchadores
of CMLL are coming to the Northeastern U.S. for the first time, ever. Yeah. We got 'em. Mascarita Dorada and Pierrothito.
Not too shabby.
