I'm Xandalfon the Fallen God. I start as a complete jobber completely incapable of mustering any offense until I get my first win via incidental interference.
Then I get a little stronger and can get some basic offense in until I win another match by accident.
With each win I get stronger and stronger until the entire roster has to wrestle me in a Many vs 1 match to finally vanquish me. And I guess Ultramantis Black captures my god powers in an amulet or something I don't know that part doesn't really involve me.

I'm the lost third Los Ice Cream, based on artisanal chains like Jeni's or Salt & Straw. I use unusual variants on moves like the Skayde Special or modified submissions with names like The Pear & Blue Cheese Clutch or I'm Gonna Rock Your Road. Every time I hit a chop, Ultramantis talks about how I'm "waffling them like a cone". People think I'm another wrestler on the roster, or perhaps the new kid they sometimes get to replace Gavin Loudspeaker on weeks he can't make it, but I'm really just a regional trainee from another state who went down to the Wrestle Factory because I was starstruck. I do video editing, voiceover, and motion graphics for the shows, DVD releases, and YouTube channel for free, with the promise that I'm going to be able to branch out and be part of the Spectral Envoy or Sinn Bodhi's faction under my preferred gimmick soon. The company shut down for Ashes before I could do any of that.

oh, I wrote my own Chikara gimmick aaaages ago, I don't even remember which storyline I was lampooning! Let me see if I can find it...

Werebee by Night, an average everyday insurance salesman (by the name of Melvin Lifera) who is comically afraid and inept at everything involving wrestling (though admirably dedicated to his job, offering to sell policies to audience members) until the stroke of 9pm, at which point he forms into his powerful alter-ego: A BEE. Yes, wearing a bee costume, he enters a fugue state of which he has no recollection, utilizing his powerful Honeycomb Driver to lay flat his foes for the allmighty Stinger Splash, a move which few walk away from, but at great cost to himself. Werebee by Night wrestles aimlessly for justice, until the fiendish Ultramantis Black controls his flight patterns using the Eye of Tyr and a comically-oversized atomizer of queen bee pheromones. Duped into subservience, Werebee by Night is rescued by a cadre of 3-12 ants and allowed to rediscover who he really is. Yes, mild-mannered Melvin Lifera is actually a cipher of the vicious Il Scutellata, a savage luchador mercenary who answers to a time-travelling Egyptian god and his pirate brother. Under the guise of Il Scutellata, Werebee by Night kidnapped and violently executed twelve teenage girls, using the twelve forbidden submission holds of the Before Ones, an order of gods from before Egyptian’s written history. Feeling guilt and shame at his heinous murders, Melvin Lifera abandons both of his identities and his gods and becomes I, Waspman, a rogue wrestler without any allegiances or convictions. I, Waspman, finds camaraderie only with the well-meaning naivete of Dasher Hatfield, a man with a baseball for a hey where are you going I’M NOT FINISHED YET

How Chikara never ran a Bee-themed rival team against the Colony is beyond me. Yes i know the spinoff ants exist, but missed opportunity not running a stable of bees (The Hive?) with all the guys in bee costumes and named things like Bumblebee (a big lovable fat guy that does flips), El Zumbador (the lucha high flyer guy on the team), Yellowjacket (the treacherous rear end in a top hat of the team who eventually betrays The Hive because he’s not actually a bee) and all led by a cutthroat Queen Bee (in my imaginary Chikara this could have been Kimber Lee or Sara Del Ray).

Instead we got impostor ants, then action figure ants (that killed a boss full of children in Zimbabwe???). :shrug:

I'm trying to think what indy guys who have fit those molds like 10-12 years ago.

Fat guy: Keith Lee? Was Ace Romero active? Jonah Rock was probably still overseas. Brian Cage would work but isn't fat. Comedy answer of Bulldozer Tremont. Anti-comedy option of Greg Excellent.

Skinny lucha guy: pick who you want I guess. Ospreay would be ideal but Quack wasn't gonna fly him in, plus I don't think he was active. Pac was active but in the same location. Omega's still a junior but he's still working Japan. Generico's a known figure. Ricochet had a gimmick. Maybe Mike Sydal? Is Rich Swann too big a name at this point? A.R. Fox? TBH out of everyone this is the easiest to fill.

Cutthroat betrayer: Adam Cole started in '08, I don't know when he started to put it all together but the timeline fits. Swerve also fits but I don't know when he started.

Queen Bee: Cherry Bomb, though is bringing along Pepper Parks mandatory? Mia Yim? When did Courtney Rush become Rosemary? When did Kimber Lee start in Chikara? Daizee Haze was concern-trolled out of Chikara and I think Death Ray was off to coach in developmental.

I'm sure there's a million dudes you could fit into those roles and it'd fit.

I feel like there was a bee-themed tag team that existed very briefly, like maybe making only a couple appearances. Might have been a Wrestling is Fun thing. Whatever it was, they didn't last long enough to do any storylines.

There was also the Rumble Bees, but they had very little to do with bees other than one guy having "bee" in his name.
