Team Uppercut (Bryan Danielson and Claudio Castagnoli) vs Mike Quackenbush and Jigsaw (Chikara - 9/13/2009)
One of the top indie matches of the 2000s. Excellent heel-face dynamic, a great mix of limbwork, technical skill and high impact action and strong selling.

I agree it's one of the best matches of the 2000s. Danielson and Claudio delivered a ton of brutal, creative offense, and they worked a tight, old-school tag match. Jigsaw held his own with this company, which felt like a revelation at the time.

This is really good and all but i dunno about one of the best indie matches of the 2000s. Anyway Bryan and Claudio are vicious working over Jig here and use about 50 different leg locks. I also thought the flash pin finish was pretty cool.

„Wow wee wow-wow!“ - Chikara commentator
„I think Quack wants to wrestle you!“ - Jigsaw, to Danielson
Man, Chikara can be awkward to watch. This was a fun indy match. Some fine indy WoS work to start, I especially liked Danielson busting out Regal's nasty knee on chest neck crank. People have talked about the legwork, but I thought Danielson's responses to Jigsaw's dweeby strikes were the highlights of the match. They lost me a bit during the „everybody runs in and breaks up pinfalls/submissions“ section. What's the point of doing FIP when everyone can just run in at any time? Jigsaw's selling was so-so, really exaggerated, but he was also doing plenty of jumping around. Quack's „sumo“ palm strikes were cringe inducing, so were the commentators who talked about how much Jigsaw loves to wrestle Danielson while Danielson was ripping up his leg.

Started off really well and was legit my favorite Bryan match since 2002 and then they were like "tag team psychology, fuck that shit we got stuff to do" and I just wanted it to end.
If the wrestlers treat the things they do in the match as meaningless, why should I care exactly?
