GCW:Run Rickey Run 2020

 

Blake Christian v. Treehouse Lee v. Cole Radrick v. JJ Garrett v. Jonathan Wolf v. KTB

This was a pretty good scramble. It served its purpose of showcasing everyone. 

Blake Christian wins via pinfall
2.5/5


Jimmy Lloyd v. Chris Dickinson

This was a good match. Dickinson is a great striker and Jimmy Lloyd was great at keeping up with him which proves how good Jimmy Lloyd is.

Chris Dickinson wins via submission
2.5/5

Effy v. Tony Deppen

This was a good match. I can see the beginnings of the phenomenon Effy would become here and Tony Deppen's in-ring work at this time was top-tier.

Tony Deppen wins via pinfall
3/5


Jordan Oliver v. Joey Janela

I enjoyed this match. This was before both men were at the level they at now. Jordan Oliver looked a bit sloppy here but to see what he turned into you can see even then the potential he had. And Joey Janela was good back then but soon after this he would kick it up a notch and be at the level he is now.

Joey Janela wins via pinfall
3/5

Alex Colon v. Takashi Sasaki

This was a good match. These two beat the shit out of each other.

Takashi Sasaki wins via pinfall
2.75/5

Matthew Justice v. Matt Tremont

This match was insane. Justice ripped a giant gash open on Tremont's elbow. And Matthew Justice did a Van Daminator that would give Mr. Monday Night a run for his money on a door. Tremont bled buckets and this was just great stuff.

Matthew Justice wins via pinfall
3.25/5

Shlak v. Danny Havoc
This was so fucking good! I love Shlak but onto Danny Havoc. This guy was a master at putting together spots in Death Matches and one of the reasons I started this project of Throwback Thursday was to watch people like him that I hadn't seen much of. I mean that spot to the outside onto the barbed wire door with the glass pane across the top was ridiculous and Danny Havoc took 2 dangerous power bombs onto tubes. This was amazing. 

Shlak wins via pinfall
4.5/5

Mance Warner v. Allie Kat

This was good. This appears to be the breakout performance of Allie Katch. And this was a very bloody match.

Allie Kat wins via pinfall
3.25/5

Ricky Shane Page defends the GCW Championship against Nick Gage

To me the match itself was good but this crowd made it great. The crowd was invested in everything Gage and RSP did and when Eric Ryan joined 44OH and RSP retained these people lost their minds. This is the match that made the Showboat the mecca for deathmatch wrestling.

Ricky Shane Page retains via pinfall
5/5
