Rina Yamashita v. Brandon Kirk v. Drew Parker v. Dr. Redacted v. Ciclope v. Matthew Justice v. Maki Itoh v. Matt Tremont in a DLC Match to determine a new Ultraviolent Championship and Unify the Extreme Championship
We had a DLC Match to unify the Extreme and Ultraviolent Championship with a majority of Death Match wrestlers here. We had Dr. Redacted dishing out trash can shots early. We had Tremont, Justice, Redacted, and Parker throwing chairs at each other. Ciclope did an Asai Moonsault. John Wayne Murdoch gave Drew Parker a backdrop through a door. Rina and Redacted took turns throwing trash cans at Tremont. Ciclope got Redacted good with a trash can. Ciclope gave Rina Yamashita a superplex off of the ladder through a door stack to the floor then Drew Parker gave JWM and Maki Itoh a Swanton through a door stack. Matthew Justice gave Dr. Redacted a Death Valley driver off of a ladder bridge through a table at Ringside. Brandon Kirk gave Drew Parker the PSYCHODRIVERFUCKYOURLIFE through a ladder bridge. This was what it should have been. An ignorant hardcore spot fest. Given who was in it, the quality was great, and this was Brandon Kirk's retirement match,h, so Brandon, thanks for everything.
Matt Tremont unified the Ultraviolent and Extreme Championship
4.5/5
Effy v. Allie Katch
This match was to determine the Number One Contender in the main event. This match got cut short due to an injury to Allie Katch just as it got started. That sucks for Allie and have a good recovery.
Effy won via referee stoppage
0.25/5
Real Fn' Pros ( Kerry Morton, Griffin McCoy, and Tony Deppen) v. NYC OG's (Homicide, Grim Reefer and Amazing Red)
This match had to stall early due to the Goddamn NY Athletic Commission. This was a pretty standard match with a cool run-in from Ricky Morton. It just sucks they had to be delayed at the start.
NYC OG's won via pinfall
2.25/5
After the match, Amazing Red was inducted into the Indie Hall of Fame 2025.
Violence is Forever defended the GCW Tag Team Championship against Garbage Daddies
Gahbage Daddies have been calling out Violence is Forever for months and finally got their shot. As far as a straight tag team match goes, this is as good and as hard-hitting as a Tag Match can get. This was great and I'm very happy Gahbage Daddies got the titles.
Gahbage Daddies won the GCW Tag Team Championship via pinfall
5/5
Richard Holliday v. Charles Mason in a Steel Cage Match
I'm not a fan of this Richard Holliday snitching on Charles Mason storyline. Slade came out and put Parrow through a door. Other than that I didn't like this match. The Storyline sucks and the match was nothing to write home about.
Charles Mason won via pinfall
1.5/5
Sydney Akeem v. El Hijo Del Vikingo
This was announced as a high-flying dream match. Honestly, I was let down by this one. It was slow and short which this is not what this shouldn't have been.
Sydney Akeem won via pinfall
2/5
Super Crazy, Little Guido and Yoshihiro Tajiri v. Gringo Loco, Arez and Jack Cartwheel
This, on paper,, was a cool match with 3 ECW legends against 3 great GCW wrestlers. This match was a lot of fun. Super Crazy was jumping off of balconies. The ECW contingent played the hits, and the Lucha contingent got all their spots in.
Gringo Loco, Arez, and Jack Cartwheel won via pinfall
3/5
Josh Barnett v. Tom Pestock in a Bloodsport Match
I don't review MMA
Josh Barnett won via submission
N/A
Atticus Cogar v. Megan Bayne
Atticus asked for this match because he was obsessed with Megan Bayne. This was a pretty good wrestling match. Otis Cogar came out to Attack Megan Bayne, and then Sawyer Wreck came out and made the save. This match was decent enough and has a cool but probably unfinished story of Atticus stalking Megan Bayne.
Megan Bayne won via pinfall
2.25/5
Joey Janela v. Masato Tanaka
This was another GCW v. ECW dream match. Masato Tanaka still hits as hard as he did in 1999. Masato Tanaka gave Joey Janela a splash through a table. Joey Janela gave Masato Tanaka an awesome bomb through a table. Joey Janela gave Masato Tanaka and superplex through a stack of chairs. These two then exchanged chair shots. Masato Tanaka gave Joey Janela a DDT onto a table but the table didn't break. Joey Janela gave Masato Tanaka a Death Valley driver through a door. This was what I had hoped this match would be, and that's a hard-hitting wrestling match.
Joey Janela won via pinfall
3.75/5
After the match, Joey Janela called out Sabu for Spring Break, and Sabu came out and accepted.
Matt Cardona's Open Challenge
Matt Cardona called out a mystery opponent. Matt Cardona squashed Tommy Invincible then called out another opponent. Then Matt Cardona squashed Microman. Then Jimmy Lloyd turned on Matt Cardona and got the win. This honestly was a nice surprise, as convoluted as this was,, and glad to have Jimmy Lloyd back.
Jimmy Lloyd won via pinfall
2/5
Mance Warner defended the GCW Championship against Effy
This one was for all the marbles. Their story of Effy never being able to win the big one was cool. Effy put Mance Warner through a door. Mance Warner reenacted the Terry Funk piledriving Ric Flair spot on a table to Effy. Mancer hit Justin Finn with a chair for no reason. Effy stabbed Mance Warner with a screwdriver. Effy then hit Mance Warner with a guitar to win the match. This was a nice good way to end the show.
Effy won the GCW Championship via pinfall
3/5
Overall
This show wasn't horrible but it was a mixed bag. You had some solid matches. You had some not-so-solid matches. You had cool moments, and in my eyes, this show was much better than the last go-around at Hammerstein. The only shame was the injury to Allie Katch.
5/10
