This is just an idea that came to mind.
Judging by how Chikara is still on DGUSA's links page, (which makes me believe they're still partners,) and by recent news of ROH and Chikara holding joint shows called "Synergy," I wonder.
Could Chikara act as a grand blue bridge between ROH and DGUSA?
If so, what if Chikara could host crossover shows between ROH, themselves and Dragongate USA?
Personally, I think that would be one hell of an awesome supercard, especially if it goes to iPPV. It would be like an indie elite extravaganza!

There hasn't really been much of a connection between DGUSA & Chikara for a while, I assumed ROH just stepped into DGUSA's place.

I wouldn't read to much into chikara still being on the links page.

You won't see DGUSA and ROH work together for a LONG time if ever... Also, I could see the CHIKARA/ROH partnership not last very long as it really was just a way to fix a problem with a double booking of sorts.

I was wondering what the deal was on that myself. I love Chikara and RoH...but their products are so different, I'm not sure how they will coexist on the same shows. Don't get me wrong, I wish them the best of luck, because I would definitely love to go to a Chikara/RoH supercard.

I think that the bridge between ROH and DGUSA exist already: Pro Wrestling Guerilla.
On the same card you have major ROH wrestlers (Davey Richards, Kevin Steen, El Generico, Eddie Edwards, Cole, O'Reilly, Young Bucks..) and major DGUSA wrestlers (Ricochet, Taylor,...)
Look at Kurt Russel Reunion III we have on the same show Richards, Tozawa, Cima, BxB Hulk, Steen, ..... it's a supercard.
You find PWG on both site, but Buy it on the DGUSA store !!! we see that both companies are in really good term with PWG, maybe because they are not a threat and are on the west coast.
For Chikara i see it as a one shot for ROH, it will be a good but quick angle in 2012, after chicago each company will be alone again. Don't forget that Chikara is now on IPPV, and they don't need long partnership because their fanbase is solide and they make a very different product.
The 6 first EVOLVE show were a true Indy Supercard whith ROH wrestlers at time (Cole, O'Reilly, Richards, Hero, Claudio,..) VS CZW wrestlers (younger, akuma, ...) VS CHikara wreslers Mike Quack, akuma, hallowicked...) VS DGUSA wrestlers (Moxley, Gargano, Swan, Ricochet).
At the time Evolve was not with DGUSA, the ROH was not SBG, ... it was a unique moment in indy wrestling history and gabe give us incredible supercard but i'm not sure that at the time we realise how surreal it was.

Don't forget that Chikara is now on IPPV They have had one and it was 3+ months ago... there are a lot of promotions that can say "we've had iPPV" it doesn't mean much has changed. At the time Evolve was not with DGUSA Um, Gabe is the president of DGUSA and is also running EVOLVE... yes they were "with" DGUSA, they just didn't have an official merger where storylines, rivalries, and teams carried over. |
