Chikara February 18, 2005 "2005 Tag World Grand Prix Night 1" - Reading, PA (Download)

The 2005 Tag World Grand Prix featured 32 teams from around the world and this is the first night featuring 16 of those teams in a fantastic night of wrestling. The entire tournament is definitley must see stuff. A few highlights from night 1 include the Chikara debut of Ebessan and Billy Ken Kid from Osaka Pro as they had 2 great matches. The stuff with Ebessan and Darkness Crabtree is classic stuff and their match with PWG was a great main event as they showed they are more than just comedy. Theres too much good stuff to list here, just a great show from top to bottom as were all 3 nights of the tournament.
