Welcome!
I felt this would be a nice little thread to have here for members to introduce themselves and let us know a little bit about them. So I'll start.
My names Chris (not Hero himself). I've been doing graphic design for Chris Hero for a number of months now and it's a pleasure. I've also worked with Hydra, Excalibur, Jigsaw, Josh Abercrombie and IVP Videos.
Now it's your turn.

Hey, I'm Nicky n I don't really know what to say so forgive me for a second while i ramble for a bit... I'm please to note that I'm the first member other than the two Chrises (is that the right plural?!?) though again it does feel as though this places more pressure on me to compose a simply brilliant post! At this point I feel I should mention that I'm in England and it's currently half past midnight here, which would normally be a problem, but I've just got back to uni on Sunday, and I've missed it sooo much that I've been celebrating since then til now - with the occassional lectures and seminars thrown in, of course - meaning I'm currently running on like 8 hours sleep from the last three days and I'm knackered! I first heard of Chris Hero through IWA:MS and from the first match I watched him in on video, I was hooked! I have since had the honour to see him live in my hometown, (before uni) [Kingston-upon-]Hull at 1PW's Devil's Due. Although, I thought he was under-used in the match, an opinion shared by many fans I've spoken to since, it was still amazing to see him work live! Anywho, i'll give up the waffling now ... many apologise to anyone who's read this dribble!

I'm lk...not so called legend over at WF, but I'm on there as well. (Liek Zomgz LK). Anyways, If anyone has heard of WFF, I'm one of the admins over there, and if you wanna join, pm me.
Anyways, I first heard of Chris, through WF, and watched a few of his matches, and thought he was a terrific wrestler. Then I seen the video, of when the fan chopped him, and right then and there, Hero became one of my top favorites in the wrestling business today. I only seen him once, so far, which was at Jersey All Pro Wrestling. He made such an impact, and I can't wait to see him again this coming saturday for ROH.

Hey everyone. I'm Brittany, 24, and from California. I met Chris Hero in Alabama back in November of last year. He may or may not remember me. I've been a wrestling fan for a few years but have been watching on and off since I was about 8 or 9. Nice to meet everyone!

My name is Jeff, and I found this place via Chris Hero's bulletin on Myspace. I'm twenty-one years old and from Baton Rouge Louisiana. I work at a library as a janitor and assistant from midnight to eight in the morning on weekdays. I plan on keeping that job until I go back to college in the fall.
I've been a professional wrestling fan for as long as I can remember. Sting was the first guy I remember looking up to, but my all time favorite wrestlers are Raven (the one from ECW and WCW, not TNA), Rob Van Dam, Bret Hart, Terry Funk, Hayabusa, Sabu, Kevin Nash, and most recently, CM Punk, Spanky, Bryan Danielson, and Homicide. The people I hate most in pro wrestling are Triple H, JBL, Hulk Hogan, and the entire McMahon family with the exception of Shane. None of which I might add are because they play good heels. Chris Hero is a good heel, not those idiots.
Anyway, I didn't come fond of Hero until I saw his tables and ladder match with CM Punk in IWA Mid-South. Ever since then, I have had nothing but the utmost respect for the dude and his abilities in the ring.

Hi, My name is Kyle, and Ive been a wrestling fan since I was a little kid. Around 2003 I discovered Ring of Honor, and basically just surfed around different Indy promotions until i came across Chris Hero in IWA: MS. Needless to say I was hooked. I believe the first match I saw him in was Hero vs. Styles in IWA Mid-South. I've had the pleasure of seeing Chris live 3 times:
1. ROH-How we Roll-Long Island
2. ROH-Ring of Homicide-New Jersey
3. ROH- Kings of Wrestling vs. The Briscoe Brothers- New York City (which I believe stole the show)
I look forward to seeing him wrestle again, and...maybe meeting new fans.

Hey guys, my name is John. I'm from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and I've been a fan of Chris Hero for almost 2 years now, and am a huge pro wrestling fan. I go to CZW monthly, and always wear my patent blue Chris Hero shirt to the events. I've been a wrestling fan since I was a little kid, and found out about independant wrestling after going to a CZW show with my dad. Since then, I've been hooked onto smaller wrestling promotions and attending them instead of watching the stuff you see on TV weekly. Chris Hero was one of those guys that just stood out to me, which is why I'm always wearing the Hero shirts to the CZW events(thought I'd explain that abit, haha). You can probably see me on most recent CZW DVD's, just check for the white kid with the slightly-long dark brown hair in the front row with the blue Hero shirt So yeah, thats me.

Hey hey, Dan here. (yes, stunning, I know). I hail from the... haven on Stockport, England. I'm a big fan of CHIKARA, ROH, Dragon Gate and a doinkload of other current feds (most things apart from TNA and ECW), and also older stuff, as I'll get into. I run the CHIKARAFans website (wwww.chikarafans.com), which is a moderately useful resource for CHIKARA stuff when I'm not being lazy, and over the last month or so I've been doing retro WCW Nitro/Clash Of The Champions/PPV reviews for Bryan Alvarez's F4WOnline.com. High Voltage and Scotty Riggs = Good, good times.
I suppose I first saw Hero in CZW a but during his feud with Jimmy Rave, then I saw some IWA, and then I began buying CZW frequently and I saw him a lot. Since I started watching CHIKARA regularly, he's been all over the shows, and he's been a highlight, especially in the tag stuff with F.I.S.T. and Claudio. Great, great stuff.

I'm Mike. I've been a wrestling fan for 7 or 8 years now. I started watching WWF only until 2004 when i started watching TNA. I stopped waching WWE completely in mid 05 and started watching ROH. I believe it was the beginning of 06 when i started watching indy wrestling (besides ROH). Now i mainly follow/watch TNA, ROH & CZW but i also try to watch other promotions like CHIKARA & IWS. I've been a fan of Mr. Hero since 2005 and he's probably my fav wrestler at the moment. The first match i ever saw was Hero vs B-Boy from COD 6 which i enjoyed. I've been lucky enough to see him live on 4 occasions. The first time was in NYC at the Best In The World show where he and Necro beat up Blade, Mikaze and then Pearce only for Claudio to turn on them. The 2nd time was in LI at the How We Roll show where he and Claudio fought Pearce & Whitmer which i enjoyed a lot. The 3rd time was in NYC at Glory By Honor 5 night 2 where he and Claudio won the ROH Tag Belts which made me a very happy man . The last time was at Final Battle where KOW fought The Briscoes in an awesome match. Hopefully i'll be able to see Hero live many more times and maybe meet him once which would be awesome!
