For those expecting rabble and reaction from WrestleMania last night first thing in the morning, well, you'll get it. But first, this is huge. HUGE. Chikara Director of Fun Wink Vavasseur just announced via Twitter that Eddie Kingston will be defending the Grand Championship at the joint Chikara/ROH event in Chicago. It'll be against Kevin Steen. In terms of independent wrestling matches, that one's a holy grail dream match for right now. Steen. Kingston. Holy shit. I don't think the building will be standing after this one.

I also think it's pretty funny that Steen is getting a shot at Chikara's main title before he's getting a shot at his own home company's title. If that doesn't foreshadow some major story material, then I don't know what does. Either way though? Holy shit. And if Steen wins and heads into Chikarasaurus Rex as Grand Champion? HOLY SHIT. Sorry everyone, I just can't stop marking out at this.
