ok, so people seem to be afraid to talk about it on the 101, but
this is a safe place, so someone wanna give me the rundown on
this video? I simply cannot afford a wrestling.is subscription.

month and cancel it in August.

I have a subscription and I watched it. It's about a minute and
a half long and it's about The Wrestle Factory. A really quick
summary - it's Quack talking to a contractor about what fixes
will need to be made to the building in order to get it up to
code and what the building will be used for. The contractor
mentions how the Allentown zoning board won't be supportive of
what he's doing, but Quack isn't worried. In fact, he's rather
confident everything will work out.
A few thoughts:
1. It's first time we've actually seen Quack since he was fired.
2. He doesn't say Chikara, but you see it at the end.
3. Recently, there's been some rumblings about something
happening in August, specifically August 1st. That's how long
this video will be posted there.
4. It's a clue for something. The stream is there, but I went
back to watch it again and I got an error message about the
stream not being available. Part of the url for it says
"cluebattery." I don't know what that means quite yet, but I'm
sure we'll find out in the end.
5. It's a prelude. A prelude is the beginning of a story - not
the end. That and the ashes symbolism makes me think that we're
moving toward a rebirth of Chikara. Ashes recall the symbolism
and truth found in the phoenix and in fire itself. Both are
symbols of rebirth and renewal, clearing away the old to make
way for the new. Forests that are destroyed by fire often grow
back more lush that they were previously for two reasons. One,
valuable nutrients found in the dead plants and ashes get
returned to the soil. Two, old, dead growth is removed, making
room for the new. This symbolism is true for people too. We all
face trials by fire - those times where we face terrible events
that seemingly destroy our lives and the things/people we love.
But if we can let go and move forward through it, there's the
potential to start over and find a new life. There will still be
trials and work to do though. Things won't be the same, but
nothing ever stays the same. Change is the ironic constant in
life. Plus, there's the chance the new life will be better than
the old one we leave behind.

its also posted on twitter so everyone should get to see it now.
:)
my take. i am trying to keep it simple because i think the
biggest mistake being made in regards to everything so far is
over thinking it. this stuff is complex enough without over
complicating it. chikara began with the wrestle factory. ashes
is clearly referring to the phoenix. so this video is about the
rebirth of chikara. starting from the beginning. i can not wait
for the next video.
