Zitat:Congratulations, Herr Frightmare, on your current status as Young Lions Cup champion of CHIKARA. Certainly, we are all surprised by your recent success.
I have spent some time reviewing the footage from the finals of the tournament on 29 August, and it is most unfortunate to see how things unfolded. It would have been most proper if the official assigned to the match - Derek Sabato - had been able to oversee the critical final moment of the championship bout. We are all distrught over the accidental kick he received from Lince Dorado, which incapacitated him and has left him with a very serious concussion. He is undergoing treatment this month, in the hope that he can return to active duty as quickly as possible.
Likewise, it is most unfortunate that in his haste to enter the ring, Gavin Loudspeaker caused Jakob Hammermeier to fall from the ring ledge to the arena floor, dislocating his shoulder in the process. Thankfully, as Jakob is made of sterner stuff than most, he will not require 12 weeks and a steel plate to recover from his trauma.

Although it is a point of much contention right now among company higher-ups, it seems that based on precedent, the ruling of the referee must stand as it relates to the controversial finish to the match between Frightmare and Lince Dorado of 29 August. And CHIKARA's senior official Bryce Remsburg has signed an affidavit affirming that he believes he made the right call in counting three while Lince Dorado was apparently legally pinned in that very, very important match. The power of the senior official is not one to be questioned lightly.
In New York on 19 September, # 1 contender for the Young Lions Cup, Pinkie Sanchez, who has defeated Frightmare on more occasions than I can recall, will be awarded his title shot.
