A number of teams are reaching out to get a shot at The Colony and their Campeonatos de Parejas, and a recent staple that’s seen its presence felt in the past year hits CHIKARA yet again in Easton on October 17th – the four-way elimination tag match! Even crazier? The first competitors are an outside squad that are looking to make their first mark on the quest to three points – Matt and Nick Jackson, The Young Bucks. More often than not the winners of these matches have gone on to get title shots, with The Colony winning the first one to earn some of their infamous seven points late last year, and most recently Gran Akuma and Icarus locking in their third point for an upcoming title match. Will the Young Bucks see similar success, or will one of the teams added in the coming days be the duo to get a trio of points?

If there’s one thing we know about CHIKARA tag tournaments, it’s that every promotion from around the world is itching to send a squad in to take the tournament home for themselves, and this year is seemingly no different. The first outsider team for 2009’s King of Trios tournament was announced today, a trio representing California’s Pro Wrestling Guerilla promotion. El Generico, an independent wrestling favorite and a veteran of the CHIKARA tournaments, steps in the ring at KOT 2K9, teaming with Matt and Nick Jackson, the Young Bucks. The Jackson brothers are the current PWG Tag Team Champions, Generico is a former PWG World and 4-time Tag Team Champion, at one point holding both main PWG titles at the same time, so it’s blatant that PWG has assembled a strong, exciting trio that has all the potential in the world to take the entire tournament; we’ll see if they can do it on March 27-29 in Philadelphia.
