GCW: Dream On 2025

 

Lucky 13 came out and insulted the crowd, then Hacksaw Jim Duggan came out and insulted Lucky 13. Ray Jaz came out and attacked Lucky 13.

Lucky 13 v. Ray Jaz

Ray Jaz made short work of Lucky 13. This was fun but not a great match.

Ray Jaz won via pinfall 

1/5

Jack Cartwheel, Ryan O'Neill, and Ryan Clancy v. YDNP and Marcus Mathers 

This was an excellent 6-person spot fest. I was impressed with everyone involved.  

YDNP and Marcus Mathers won via pinfall 

4.5/5

Gail Kim cut a heel promo. Joey Janela came out and set her straight. KJ Orso jumped Joey Janela from behind

Joey Janela v. KJ Orso 

This was a solid match as well. The story here was the interference of Gail Kim. Was it a one-off?

Joey Janela won via pinfall 

3.25/5

BearDozer (Bear Bronson and Matt Tremont) v. Rhino and Tommy Dreamer

We had an ECW vs. GCW tag team match here. The match itself wasn't great, but the nostalgia was fun.

BearDozer won via pinfall 

2/5

Gringo Loco v. Mascarita Dorada 

This was a fun lucha match.

Gringo Loco won via pinfall 

2/5

Sam Stackhouse v. Beastman

We had a battle of the big men. This was just a slow brawl that ended in a double countout. Lame.

No Contest

1/5

The Major Players (Matt Cardona and Brian Myers) v. Jimmy Lloyd and Killer Kross

This match wasn't bad. I'll tell you, I haven't seen much of Killer Kross because I don't watch much WWE, but from what I can tell, WWE really handcuffed him as far as his in-ring ability, and this man has some charisma too. I want more.

Jimmy Lloyd and Killer Kross won via pinfall 

2.25/5

Jeffery John v. Maki Itoh 

This match wasn't very good.

Maki Itoh won via pinfall 

0.75/5

Effy defended the GCW Championship against Charles Mason and Atticus Cogar 

This match was supposed to be Charles Mason against Atticus Cogar, with the winner facing Effy immediately after, but Effy couldn't wait, so we had the triple threat in the middle of the Atticus/Mason match. This match was overbooked with all the interference, but it worked, plus it was fun. Plus, I like the fact that Atticus Cogar got the win because he deserves it.

Atticus Cogar won via pinfall 

3.25/5

Overall

The show itself wasn't great and dragged on, but it did have a couple of redeemable matches on it and had some cool legends interactions. 

5.9/10
