GCW

Joey Janela’s Spring Break Part 2

Dallas, Texas

April 1st, 2022

 

Singles Match
Matt Cardona (w/Chelsea Green) vs. Chris Dickinson (w/Missy Hyatt)

A decent predictable opener. A lot of pandering to the crowd made it a less interesting match at times but Cardona and Dickinson did good. The interference was expected and the ending was predictable winner wise but this was a solid opener.

3 / 5

Singles Match
Biff Busick vs. Tony Deppen

A good hard hitting match between Biff and Deppen. Sure, Biff should have won, but this was a good match between them that worked with telling a story throughout it. Biff looks great and hits hard and hopefully his indy streak continues. 

3.5 / 5

Singles Match
Mike Bailey vs. Jordan Oliver

Speedball actually got a good match out of Oliver. Fast paced with tons of great spots. Both guys had good back and forth action going on and it didn’t overstay its welcome. Speedball is killing it on his run right now. 

4 / 5

Singles Match
Minoru Suzuki vs. Effy

Honestly a pretty lame match and a waste of Suzuki. Some chops to kick it off then a few submission holds and that was mainly it. A quick ten minute match though so thankfully it didn’t go too long. Effy got his dream match here though. 

1.5 / 5

Clusterfuck Battle Royal
Deranged vs. Maven vs. Nate Webb vs. Jimmy Wang Yang vs. Buff Bagwell vs. Grim Reefer vs. Josh Barnett vs. Kevin Matthews vs. LuFisto vs. Rhett Titus vs. Dark Sheik vs. Joey Janela vs. Shazza McKenzie vs. Sam Stackhouse vs. Brandon Kirk vs. George Gatton vs. Damian Drake vs. Ju Dizz vs. Cole Radrick vs. Hunter Freeman vs. Parrow vs. Jimmy Lloyd vs. Edith Surreal vs. Matt Vandagriff vs. Kevin Blackwood vs. 1 Called Manders vs. Billie Starkz vs. Charlie Tiger vs. Ellis Taylor vs. Blake Christian vs. Levi Everett vs. Dante Leon vs. Alec Price vs. Janai Kai vs. Hoodfoot vs. Nick Wayne vs. Sandra Moone vs. Jazzy Yang vs. Juicy Finau vs. Jai Vidal vs. Jack Cartwheel vs. SLADE vs. Kamikaze vs. The Second Gear Crew (AJ Gray, Mance Warner & Matthew Justice) vs. Big Vin vs. Early Morning Guy Steel vs. Invisible Man vs. Judas Judd Cassidy vs. Lord Adrean vs. Nasty Leroy vs. Sean Ross Sapp vs. Yoya

The clusterfuck is almost hard to review. Its a rumble match with the loosest rules of all time. Its also mainly a joke match. This year had less of the jokes and throw back guests and focused on a lot of GCW / JCW / La Fights names instead. Sean Ross Sapp popping up was fun, Bagwell, Maven, Josh Barnett treating this as a joke, and Jimmy Yang Wang. Its just overly long though and for what it is feels like it takes forever.
