Michael Spillane (born March 18, 1976), better known by his ring name Mike Quackenbush, is an American professional wrestler, trainer, author and the founder of both The Wrestle Factory and Chikara. Quackenbush is best known as the patriarch of the Chikara family and his work on the independent circuit, the latter of which has spanned for over 15 years. He has written five books: Fantastic Finishers (1998), Headquarters (2001), Secret Identity (2004), Chikara Yearbook (2002 and 2004). Additionally, he pens a regular column for The Wrestler magazine entitled 'From Bell To Bell' and 'International Report' in Pro Wrestling Illustrated. He is also the host of the weekly video podcast entitled "Chikara Podcast–A–Go–Go". Quackenbush also hosts a non-wrestling related podcast called "The Grizzly Bear Egg Café" with his long-time friend, Fox News host Clayton Morris.
Quackenbush has toured Canada, Mexico and several European countries during his career. In 2004, he briefly united six championships from three different countries (USA, Mexico and Germany) into the "I-Crown".[2] Quackenbush had back surgery in early 2006. He returned to the ring on March 18, 2006. In Germany, he captured the WXW World Heavyweight Championship from Are$.[2] He then returned to his schedule of wrestling and training at The Wrestle Factory. Quackenbush defeated Tiger Mask IV at the now defunct Fight Sports Midwest, to capture the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship on May 11, 2007. Throughout the match, Quackenbush unlaced and loosened Tiger Mask's mask, a major sign of disrespect amongst masked wrestlers. Seconds before pinning Tiger Mask, Quackenbush completely pulled off his opponent's mask. After grasping his new belt, he reached down and pulled away Tiger Mask's mask. He then held it up to the crowd. In a promo after the match, Quackenbush explained that he did everything to get the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship and that he was, in no way, proud of it. He said he viewed the belt as his ticket to Japan, as Japanese promotions had not booked him in any events. Quackenbush recently won the 2007 Ted Petty Invitational defeating Billy Roc, Joey Ryan and Josh Abercrombie on his way to the finals where he eliminated both Claudio Castagnoli and Chuck Taylor to win the tournament. Quackenbush also captured the IWA Mid-South Heavyweight Championship.[2] Quackenbush made his debut in Japan for Michinoku Pro, defeating Shibaten in the village of Takazawa.[3] He wrestled for the same company, the next night, defeating Rei. In a four way elimination match against Chris Hero, Eddie Kingston and Chuck Taylor, Quackenbush put his IWA Mid-South Heavyweight Championship and IWA Mid-South Light Heavyweight Championship on the line. Quackenbush was pinned by Chuck Taylor, thus capturing the IWA Mid-South Light Heavyweight Championship. Eddie Kingston then pinned Quackenbush, capturing the IWA Mid-South Heavyweight Championship.
Hiatus and return

During his 2000 hiatus from wrestling, Quackenbush wrote his novel Headquarters, produced a direct–to–video project called Crusaders and hosted an improv comedy show.[4] He returned to the ring in April 2000, after just two full months off.

Quackenbush founded The Wrestle Factory in January 2002.[4] He opened the promotion Chikara in May of the same year. The Wrestle Factory assumed control of the Combat Zone Wrestling school in March 2005. The schools separated in March 2007. Quackenbush served as head trainer of the joint facility for the two year duration. In March 2006, Chikara Podcast–A–Go–Go was launched.[1] The weekly video podcast is available through iTunes, YouTube and other online outlets. A new episode debuts every Monday night.
