I feel like Bret has the potential to have a show that draws in new fans but yeah having Gage and Tremont close the show was not a good look really on any level besides the awesome pop Gage got. He is such a weird dude and it's crazy how people respond to him but it is what it is. It just felt like such a "shit show" way to end the event. Very very indy... which I guess they want to be.

I don't care if it was FTR or who we got with Matt and Nick but it certainly wasn't the best Matt and Nick they could've faced AMIRITE??

I wonder if this event will be a peak for GCW or just a stop on the journey. Either way I'm probably not going to be a regular viewer after this one, maybe when some more characters pop up.

GCW takes ECW's island of broken toys theme to the next level. Everyone there is a freak on some level, a misfit, cast out from society like many of the fans in the audience. I think they should stick with that instead of try too much to appeal to the main stream.

That said, Matt Tremont and Nick Gage can hardly call themselves athletes and this should probably be their last main event. Gage needs to pass the torch.
