[edit] Career
[edit] Chikara
Gran Akuma debuted at a Chikara show on October 20, 2002 in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Akuma found a tag team partner in Icarus. They formed the babyface Team F.I.S.T. (Friends In Similar Tights). In 2005 after a relative lack of success, the team snapped and attacked Men@Work (Shane Storm & Mr. ZERO) after a match, turning heel for the first time. They then joined up with the Kings of Wrestling (Chris Hero, Claudio Castagnoli, & Arik Cannon). On November 17, 2006 at BRICK Team F.I.S.T. defeated their stablemates Chris Hero & Claudio Castagnoli for the Chikara Campeonatos de Parejas. Team F.I.S.T. held the titles until October 26, 2007, when they were defeated by Incoherence (Delirious & Hallowicked) at Chikara's "Bruised" event. Gran Akuma was injured and had to watch from ringside as his Kings of Wrestling stablemate Chuck Taylor wrestled in his place.
