Do you think yourself clever, Quackenbush? You must. You must imagine yourself to be the smartest man in pro-wrestling.
You remembered our names! What a remarkable brain you must have. Far trustier than that left wrist of yours. That back
of yours. The list goes on. Your brain might work fine, but your body...how many surgeries have you had now?

The people you surround yourself with, your partners and allies, they are all good soliders, aren't they? Until they
turn their backs on you. Like Chris Hero did in 2005. Or Shane Storm did in 2008. It's just a matter of time before Jigsaw
does. How many have abandoned you over the years?

The Swarm though...we had the good sense to get out long before all of that. We saw what was ahead for us if we stayed on at Chikara Wrestle
Factory. Lugging that ring from town
to town, setting up for the events like a slave labor force. That's what the "factory" produced. Maybe that was just fine for the
Mister ZERO's and the Gran Akuma's of the world, but not for us. Do you think we had nothing better to do with our weekends? We have
always been destined for stardom. Is working the "ring crew" how pro-wrestling
superstars are made? Tearing down the ring at the end of the night only to set it up somewhere else? Let me call Johnny Ace quickly and ask him if that's how they
find the next WWE hiree. I don't think so.

People talk about "paying dues" and for what? It was bad enough listening to you prattle on obsessively about technique and
form in the ring, Quackenbush. How much more did we have to pay before we got what we deserved?
I'm sure the people reading this wonder what we must really be like. You've put us under the "rudo" section of your roster page, so we must be
the "bad guys" right? I'm not a bad guy. Let me tell you who I am. I am a mature, considerate, amicable and heartfelt optimist. The arrival of GEKIDO in CHIKARA
was not some impulsive, immature decision made at the last minute. It was the result of a lot of planning, a lot of forethought. If you ask me, we should
be at the top of the "tecnico" section.
Your proteges Quackenbush, the ones you take such pride in...from Hallowicked and UltraMantis to Green Ant and Dasher Hatfield. Do
any of them deserve to be bigger stars than us? Is there anyone you've trained that is a better wrestler than any single one of us?
All of you so-called "stars" of CHIKARA are lucky. You aren't more talented, more dedicated, more ANYTHING. Just lucky. When we left, CHIKARA was
a sinking ship. Could barely pay the rent. Could barely afford to keep the lights on. Certainly couldn't afford to turn the air conditioning on.
So we left that little sweat shop. "Factory" was the right name, all right.
You got lucky, CHIKARA. And luck can change. The Swarm's luck is about to change. And as for that lesson you never taught us,
Quackenbush? Yes, I read your little blog. You really think sending the original five to do your dirty work is a recipe for success? Dragonfly has got ring rust
on his mask and ZERO has been semi-retired for years. How is Icarus going to get along with those guys? That's your master stroke?
