Moretti\u2019s team of the Ancient Order of the Nations may have fallen short of Trios gold, but he\u2019s ready to move on. In previous CHIKARA visits, he racked up two points toward a Grand Championship opportunity. Moretti defeated <strong>Race Jaxon<\/strong> on the June 4, 2017, edition of the <em><strong>Hour of Power<\/strong><\/em>. He also defeated <strong>Jessica Troy<\/strong> at the 2017<em><strong> Johnny Kidd Invitational<\/strong><\/em>. Mick Moretti is now on the hunt for his third and final point to earn his next golden opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Rory Gulak is a man on a different type of journey. Rory hasn\u2019t been seen in CHIKARA in several months. Not since he lost in the first round of the 2018 <em>Johnny Kidd Invitational<\/em>. Rory is looking to use this match to turn his own luck around. Unfortunately, while both are noble causes, only one man can win.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_26089\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26089\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-26089\" src=\"https:\/\/lwosonprowrestling.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2018\/09\/6person.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2018\/09\/6person.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2018\/09\/6person-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-26089\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: CHIKARA<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Jeremy Leary<\/strong> and <strong>Lucas Calhoun<\/strong> needed a new partner following the beatdown of <strong>B.M.D.<\/strong> in July.
