Through hard work & dedication...through blood, sweat, and tears, CM Punk fought his way to the top of the ladder in Ring of Honor. His skill inside the squared circle, his verbal gifts, and his innate charisma made him a figure that demanded attention from each and every person that watched his journey from unknown Midwestern talent to worldwide superstar.

A giant 10-man tag headlines the first anniversary event for CHIKARA! Blind Rage takes on DJ Skittlez with the stipulation that the winner chooses the loser’s entrance music. As a result of the "Double Jeopardy Battle Royal," Reckless Youth wrestles Mike Kruel.
