The final GCW show before the huge War Games show drew a crowd of around 275-300 people at the Great Skate Plex in Phenix City,
AL. Those who bought advance tickets to War Games will be let into the Great Skate at 6:15 on the 24th for an autograph session with
GCW wrestlers.
Match #1
Referee Jeff McGowan
"That 80's Guy" John Bogie and "The Beach Boy" Scotty Beach defeated "The Wrestling Hybrid" Orion Bishop and The Bruiser w/Wicked
Nemesis, Princeton Gainey III, and Mr. Crowfish, when Bogie rolled up Bishop after Wicked accidentally hit Bishop with his cane.
Originally this match was supposed to be Slaughter and Bishop versus Bogie and Beach, but Wicked said that Slaughter was under
intense interrogation to learn how not to disappoint Wicked.
Match #2
Referee Randy Ray
Damien Steele defeated Randall Johnson after hitting a northern lights suplex.
Midway during the match, Princeton Gainey III came out to scout Steele. After the match, Steele chased after Gainey.
Match #3
Referee Randy Ray
Jonathan Davis defeated Michael Cook after hitting a modified angle slam.
After the match, Randall Johnson came down, and he and Cook beat down Davis.
Match #4
Referee Scrappy McGowan
Sonny Siaki defeated Zero Tolerance w/Quentin Michaels by rolling Zero up after Zero missed a corner splash.
After the match, Zero grabbed McGowan while Michaels got the mic. Michaels said that he got him into the Commissionership, and then
when Scrappy was fired, he got his job back as senior official. He said that McGowan was a failure and ungrateful. He then ordered Zero
to show Scrappy the Zero Tolerance policy of Michaels, Inc.
After McGowan was helped to the back by the other referees, Princeton Gainey III came out. He talked about the upcoming War Games
match between Damien Steele and Gainey’s new charge, The Bruiser. He said that Steele is a fool for challenging the Bruiser. He
claimed that Bruiser is so big and bad, and that the reason they can’t find Bigfoot is because Bruiser ate him.
Out came Damien Steele who chased Gainey out of the ring and to the back. He came back in wearing Gainey’s coat and Mad Hatter
hat, which he ended up destroying.
Match #5
Referee Jeff McGowan
David Young and the GCW Tag team champions Tex Monroe and J-Rod defeated GCW Heavyweight champion Johnny Swinger and Hot
Like Lava (GCW Interstate Champion Cru Jones and Shaun Banks) w/Quentin Michaels and Zero Tolerance after Young hit Swinger with
the spinebuster.
GCW has a new Internet video up. The link is http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2242794957196884355&q=%
