Nelson Ortiz

Professional wrestler known for his time in CHIKARA. Debuted at "CHIKARA Caught in the Spider's Den" on February 26, 2012 as part of GEKIDO's invasion and attack on Mike Quackenbush, Jigsaw and the Colony. He was supposed to be an evil counterpart to Fire Ant as part of the Swarm, the ants of GEKIDO, with combatANT and deviANT, along with 17 (Kyle Matthews) and the Shard (John Silver). Made his in-ring debut teaming with combatANT and deviANT against the Colony (Fire/Soldier/Green) at "CHIKARA It's How You Play the Game" on March 25, 2012. In August, evil incompetent CHIKARA Director of Fun Wink Vavasseur reassigned assailANT to the Colony and Soldier Ant to the Swarm as part of his "Chikarabermetrics" nonsense. assailANT eventually grew to be accepted by Fire and Green. In the "Ashes" video "Man Down," Fire and Green visited the original Worker Ant who had retired in 2009. Worker gave Green his ring gear, making it look like Green was going to become the next Worker Ant. Instead, Green passed the gear and the role to assailANT. At the CHIKARA return show "CHIKARA You Only Live Twice" on May 25, 2014, he introduced his new gimmick of Worker Ant. He left CHIKARA after "National Pro Wrestling Day 2017." As assailANT, he is a former NWA DAWG (Dangerous Adrenaline Wrestling Gladiators in New Jersey) Tag Team Champion with Joey Spades and a former WiF! (Wrestling is Fun!) Banana Champion, that is, a title that was represented by an actual banana.
