History Characters / Chikara

* HarmlessVillain

* {{Meganekko}}: The Video des Kreuzes hammers it home.

A Indy worker in the New York area who trained under Mike Quackenbush. As he debuted in 2000, he is not counted as a member of the original class, but is a honorary member. Led the Night Shift, a PowerTrio of himself and two of the original class rookies in Hallowicked and Ichabod Slayne (the future Icarus), until Slayne broke away from them. Then he continued on in a tag team with Hallowicked until [=UltraMantis=] went to the dark side dubbing himself Ultra-Mantis Black. This unit was called the Dark Breed. He continued to lead this unit until his retirement in 2004. But, he would return in the 2005 Tag World Grand Prix, and would still be aligned with the Dark Breed. In 2006, he sided with UltraMantis Black when the Dark Breed split, and served as a brief member of the Order of the Neo Temple. His last match in November of 2006 saw him making peace with Hallowicked, and staying out of CHIKARA for good.

* [[spoiler: BreakTheHaughty]]: Oh, she broke [[spoiler: Claudio Castagnoli]] bigtime.

* [[spoiler: BreakTheHaughty]]: [[spoiler: Losing to Sara Del Rey at Chikarasaurus Rex: King of Sequel. In fact, this caused both Del Rey AND Daizee Haze to be kicked out of the BDK.]]

* PutOnABus: Seemingly for good after being defeated and unmasked by Ophidian at the beginning of the eleventh season.

** Later {{RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap}}.

* BadAss: 17 made Mike Quackenbush tap out and broke his hand in the process, The Shard is tough enough to shrug off opponents' chops, and The Swarm are ''at least'' a match for The Colony.

* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Mr. Touchdown

* TheVoiceless

* OnlyKnownByHisNickname: Mr. Touchdown

* TooCoolToLive: Was forced to retire in 2011 due to a serious spinal injury.

* TemptingFate: Made a comment saying "being bi-polar has its benefits" and adjusted his tie during the King of Trios preshow. A couple weeks before King of Trios, [[TooCoolToLive Larry Sweeney]], a loved member of Chikara, hanged himself. While it was Bodhi playing up his character (he wasn't aware of Sweeney and [[OhCrap apologized profusely afterwards]]), '''no one was amused.'''

* ShoutOut: His name is taken from the basketball comedy film SemiPro.

!!!Sinn Bodhi
* CloudCuckooLander: Almost as bad as Delirious
* MonsterClown: Not played up as much as his time as Kizarny, however.

* BigBad: For 2002 and 2003.

* BetterThenCanon: Got treated much better in CHIKARA then they could ever be in their own home promotion.

* BigBad: Of 2008 and 2009.

!!!Madison Eagles
* ActionGirl

* TheWesley: Started in 2008 with winning the King of Trios, and went downhill from there.

* Angrish

!!!Archibald Peck
* HarmlessVillain
* LargeHam
* TalkingToHimself: On the August 11th Event Center video.

!!!Kobald
* AmbiguousGender: Considered male by the announce team and CHIKARA officially, though even they were confused. The fact that Kobald wears earrings, jewelry and struts around the ring with a feminine edge doesn't help.
* EnigmaticMinion
* EnsembleDarkhorse
* OurGoblinsAreDifferent
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics
* TheVoiceless

* [[HeelFaceRevolvingDoor Technico Rudo Revolving Door]]: Started as a Rudo, became a Technico in 2005, went back to being a Rudo in 2007, and is now currently a Technico again since 2010.

* BrotherChuck: Kicked out of F.I.S.T. in 2010. Strangely, he's been seen in other Indies just fine, which has caused much speculation of a falling out, or it being a angle.
* [[FaceHeelTurn Technico Rudo Turn]]: Turned in 2005 and didn't look back since.

* TheChewToy: Truly a Rudo everybody loves to hate.

!!!Hallowicked
* TheUnintelligible

* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Originally was one, then become a Good one.

* ActionGirl.

* LargeHam

* OddFriendship: With Jigsaw. Originallym they tagged so Sabian could get a shot at Jigsaw's YLC, but continuted teaming for a while anyways.

* HilariousInHindsight: It's not hard to see a little bit of John Cena's act done a few years before he came onto the WWE.

* BrotherChuck: Vanished by the start of 2005. Some explanations outside of CHIKARA is Chris Hero kicking him out of all of wrestling or retiring of a knee injury he got in Canada in the winter of 2004.

* HeyItsThatGuy: Kizarny of {{WWE}} fame.
