Game Changer Wrestling (GCW) is an American independent professional wrestling promotion based in New Jersey. The promotion was founded in 1999 and has been owned by Brett Lauderdale since 2015.
The promotion was founded by wrestler Ricky Otazu in 1999 as Jersey Championship Wrestling (JCW). It was renamed Game Changer Wrestling in 2015 after a sale to Brett Lauderdale and Danny Demanto. Following the rebranding, GCW grew from a small New Jersey-based promotion into a nationally touring promiton, holding events in the United States as well as internationally in Japan and Mexico. The company promotes matches featuring the hardcore "death match" style of wrestling, while also promoting mixed martial arts-inspired shoot style matches during their Bloodsport events.
GCW's annual events include Backyard Wrestling, Bloodsport, Joey Janela's Spring Break, the Nick Gage Invitational, and the Tournament of Survival.
History[]
1999–2004: Early history as Jersey Championship Wrestling[]
Jersey Championship Wrestling (JCW) was founded by independent wrestler Ricky Otazu, also known by his ring name of Ricky O,[1] in January 1999 in New Jersey.[2][3] JCW ran their first show on January 29, 2000 in Lyndhurst, New Jersey.[4] Later that year, JCW hosted the inaugural Jersey J-Cup, which featured many of the top unsigned wrestlers of that period.[5] They would continue to host the tournament until 2004, when JCW was sold to rival company National Wrestling Superstars (NWS).[6] The promotion would remain dormant for nearly a decade.
2013–2015: Revival[]
In September 2013, after the closure of National Wrestling Superstars,[7] Otazu reclaimed the rights to JCW and reopened the promotion.[6] In April 2014, JCW opened its own training school in North Bergen.[8] Later that year, JCW would return to hosting the Jersey J-Cup.[9]
2015–2017: Rebranding as Game Changer Wrestling[]
In June 2015, Jersey Championship Wrestling rebranded itself to Game Changer Wrestling[3] after being purchased by Brett Lauderdale and Danny Demanto.[10] After the buyout, GCW began to predominantly feature hardcore wrestling and continued to enjoy success in the New Jersey Wrestling scene, producing several tournaments that boasted high-level independent wrestlers, including the Nick Gage Invitational Ultraviolent Tournament,[11] the Tournament of Survival[12] and the Acid Cup.[13]
2017–present: Expansion[]
In March 2017, GCW produced Joey Janela's Spring Break show in Fern Park, Florida.[14] This would become an annual tradition for the company.[15] GCW would continue to expand throughout the United States and hosted its first show in Los Angeles in November 2018, titled To Live and Die in LA.[16] In April 2018, GCW partnered with Matt Riddle to produce Matt Riddle's Bloodsport, a show that fused professional wrestling and mixed-martial arts rules.[17] Bloodsport would take place twice more in 2019, this time with the partnership of Josh Barnett.[18][19][20][21] GCW also entered a partnership with video-streaming service FITE TV to exclusively stream GCW events.[22] In August 2019, GCW embarked on a two-day tour of Japan.[23]

13 | Glitz And Glamour (Jarrett Foster, Steven Sterling and Aaron Stride) |
June 13, 2014 | JCW | Long Branch, New Jersey | 1 | 133 | This was a 2-on-1 handicap match in which Janela defended the titles alone. Cagematch.de shows that Stride and Foster won the titles but Steven Sterling is also shown to have taken place in a further title defence, the most plausible explanation being that all three members were recognized as champions under the freebird rule. However, Sterling's reign length remains uncertain. | [48] | ||
