Outlook - Probably the only backyard wrestler to rise to any sort of prominence in the wrestling world, Mike Quackenbush's determination has made him amongst the most respected indy wrestlers around. Combining a lucha style with US Indy innovation, Quack became one of the funnest wrestlers to watch. Some of his weaknesses went unresolved and seemed to hold him back at times when he could have stepped up to another level in the early `00s. Either way, Quackenbush turned into a damn good wrestler and an even better teacher. His students have really impressed in the past couple years and Chikara Pro is one of the premier indies. Quackenbush himself has had reoccuring back problems and probably won't reach much stardom past the level he's at now.
