Just finished Spring Break. Great show, worth the price. Deathmatch was nuts, and Jimmy Lloyd is super lucky. You can tell they were pressed for time as they were flying through shit. I really liked Gage vs. Otani. I had only seen clips, and didn't get it but now I'm sold on Orange Cassidy. The scramble was what you expect a scramble to be. Jungle Boy looks just like his dad. Yeah theyre pressed for time due to the other shows for the Collective and rhe venue itself wanted to make sure everything runs on time which is reasonable since theres like 12 hours of wrestling

Saw Stardom live: a little short for how much a GA ticket cost, but the action was absolutely worth it, great stuff.
Then got to Manhattan for the Penis Party; dunno if it’s a Wrestlecon thing to draw less interested fans, but we had a few folks around us who seemed too interested in getting themselves over and not knowing what was happening in the ring. The DDT match was glorious, but I was up in the balcony so didn’t get all of the comedy happening in the earlier matches.
Also just got back from Blackcraft, which thankfully for me was at the venue just around the corner from my place. The death match stuff was a little much for me (NO MORE UNPROTECTED CHAIR SHOTS TO THE HEAD, THANK YOU), but despite having to leave a little early to make sure I get some sleep, I’m thrilled I got to see Masato Tanaka in person and got to experience a decidedly weirder crowd and atmosphere for that card.

Yeah, but them having to go full speed actually turned out to be a good thing in the end. It made it feel like "this is the American version of a Japanese death match!" and it also didn't give us time to relax and breathe because it just got crazier and crazier from there. We had a woman faint right near us. A woman behind me was FREAKING. THE HELL. OUT. Lady, we were all freaking the hell out.

Honestly I had more trouble watching the guy with no legs (pardon me for forgetting his name).

Honestly I had more trouble watching the guy with no legs (pardon me for forgetting his name). Dustin Thomas from sources. Yeah, we had no idea how to feel about it at first. I wanted to start a "This is awkward!" chant when Deppen just kept laying into him but then Dustin surprised us all. I can cross off "seeing a no-legged guy wrestle" off my bucket list as well. Also, what a heel Deppen is, holy hell.

Deppen is fantastic. I'm so bummed I didn't make it down for all the shows. Ah well.

I'm hearing legitimately great things about Invisible Man vs. Invisible Stan. It’s one of the damndest things, just from the gifs I’ve seen of it.

It was incredible {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}A run-in by Kikutaro A table spot A balcony dive Chain wrestling One of those trading 2-count spots A ref bump
Probably a lot more that I'm forgetting.
My only disappointment was, watching them set the table up in the corner before the match, you could see the rope they used to pull and break it. But, suspending disbelief and all. Mad props to Bryce Remsburg for conveying everything. He's an awesome ref.

Orange Cassidy corpsing during Teddy Hart’s Reading Rainbow is legitimately the funniest thing to happen this weekend. This whole GCW show has been wonderful, and now we’re about to get Otani/Gresham.

In a semi-main event similar to Bret/Shawn at WMXII, Chuck and Trent went to a 1-minute Broadway, before Trent won via schoolboy in a 5-second overtime.

Hopefully people stop sleeping on GCW. They've been top notch for a bit now and they're firing on all cylinders this weekend. Finally got around to Bloodsport and it KILLED. Great shit. Time to catch up on last night's Spring Break.

I was there live at the GCW show. I can confirm the atmosphere was as surreal as it gets. Im legit happy how big theyve gotten. From being in that venue at Freehold to where theyre at now. Thats great!!

My god, when Louden announced that it was going to be a wrestling match instead of an actual DODGEBALL game, we went absolutely RABID. It was amazing.

I'm kinda nervous now for Spring Break, not for the show but after the Hart situation and the Enzo/Cass crap if some drunken douche decides to do it at Spring Break during a dangerous death match spot something seriously bad could happen
