Game Changer Wrestling's 1/23 debut at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City is now available for pre-orders on FITE.TV.  Officially announced thus far for the event:

*ROH Champion Jonathan Gresham vs. Blake Christian with Ian Riccaboni calling the bout.

*Team Gringo - Gringo Loco & Arez & Demonic Flamita vs. Team Bandido:  Bandido & Laredo Kid & ASF.

*Also appearing are GCW Tag Team Champions The Briscoes, Eddie Kingston, WWE Hall of Famer Ricky Morton, Alex Colon, Alex Zayne, Allie Katch, Atticus Cogar, Big Vin, Effy, Jimmy Lloyd, Jordan Oliver, Matt Cardona, Matthew Justice, Nick Wayne, Ninja Mack, and Tony Deppen.  Noticeable by his absence thus far is Nick Gage.  Gage recently noted on Instagram he had been taking time off to get his body and mind right going into the new year.

Homicide won the Do or Die Gauntlet to become the number one contender to Jon Moxley's GCW Championship.  No word if that bout will take place on 1/23 but Homicide challenging in his hometown would make the most logical sense.

Matt Cardona tweeted the following, which looks to set up himself vs. Joey Janela at the event:

Jeff Jarrett's recent attack on Effy also looks to set up a bout in NYC.  Jarrett is slated for GCW's return to Chicago.

GCW announced Lufisto is the latest inductee to the Indie Wrestling Hall of Fame:
