4/1 JCW VS. LA FIGHTS REPORT FROM DALLAS, TEXAS

It is Day 2 of GCW’s The Collective in Dallas Texas, and this is our opening card for today. The commentary team is Nick Knowledge and Veda Scott. Someone for JCW named Jordan joins the team, but they never introduce him, so I am unsure of the last name.

Team JCW (Yoya, Janai Kai, Edith Surreal, Jordan Oliver, Charlie Tiger, Ellis Taylor, Bam Sullivan and Slade) vs. Team LA Fights (Titus Alexander, Bad Dude Tito, Hunter Freeman, Matt Vandagriff, Damian Drake, Jordan Cruz, Lucas Riley and Ju Dizz)

This is a big battle royal, with the teams against each other.  After the opening when they have the two teams go at each other, the action spills to the outside with two people in the ring and a fight going on around the ring with everyone else. The way the match is structured is that two people are in the ring, when one is tossed or rolls out, someone else comes in.

We get a few times when someone is tossed to the outside into everyone. The best way to keep track is that the JCW people have red t-shirts on.

The match ends when Yoya pins Damian Drake after a brain buster.

Winners: Team JCW

This kind of match was probably a lot of fun in person, but was just a bunch of chaos when watched on TV.
