Chikara presented the 15th annual Young Lions Cup in Philadelphia, and here are the results!

Full results come courtesy of Pro Wrestling Ponderings:

• Stage 1
• Stage 2

Phase 1 – Philadelphia, PA – 3.16.2019 – 3:00 PM

2. The Regime (Juan Francisco de Coronado, Rick Roland, and Sloan Caprice) vs. Arm Wringer Amir, Enzuigiri Evan, and Headbutt Hari did not occur and was officially ruled a No Contest. Roland and Caprice apparently have not been paid by Coronado lately, and because of the lack of pay, put a beatdown on him before a match could happen and told their opposition to scram. They gave Coronado the Deal Breaker to put a fine a point on it.

4. Missile Assault Man pinned Rory Gulak with a Scorpion Death Drop.
