This is such awesome, old school, heat that you just do not see anymore. Even more credit to Matt for being able to get such heat while being so open and accessible to the fans. I’d have thought this type of crowd reaction died with kayfabe, but Matt proved me wrong. As much as this night changed your career, you deserved it even more.
I am not, nor have I ever been a death match guy. But man, what a smart move to launch yourself as an independent. I’ve been a WF pod listener since day 1, and a MC fan for even longer. Thanks for sharing what you were going through in this, man. We love you.
Damn this match was violent but fun. So much blood loss. You guys are nuts. lol Great commentary and I hope there's more match commentary in future uploads. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Matt cardona is the sole reason I became a GCW fan. I had never heard of GCW, I was intrigued to see a WWE lifer in a death match with a legitimate psychopath. Holy shit this match is everything, totally revitalized my love for wrestling.
People saying that “this isn’t wrestling” would hate 80s territory wrestling considering how real the wrestling was and how hardcore all the fans were back then. This match had the most old school feel to it and it’s one of the best heel vs face matches of the 21st century.
This was his Randy Orton vs Mick Foley moment. The people got to see how tough Cardona was. I think the fans loved it because of what Matt represented.. that wwe structure and they get to see their guy destroying a wwe system guy at the time.
Lol is there anything more Matt than Matt being so self absorbed he doesn't know the other half of the story to the match he's in. I love it. Rickey Shane Page was a founder of 44oh. Atticus Cogar had been testing the limits of Rickey's leadership up to this point. RSP turning on the rest of 44oh was like the equivalent of HBK turning on DX. For anyone interested in that angle of the match. This was a big match for multiple reasons.
Not to mention the RSP/44.OH vs Nick Gage/GCW feud that began after the main event of the NGI4 in 2019. It’s one of the best storylines in wrestling history imo.
I wont lie man, i HATED you, to the point i talked enough shit online to get you to block me! I almost stopped watching GCW when you showed up. Then this match happened, and since then i can say im a fan. You proved to be more than a Jersey Body guy.
Awesome match, was really expecting a 'thumb tack' bag to be pulled out but with elite heads,hands etc inside it instead a little like the Lego brick version. Thought it would of been perfect!
I’m not gonna lie, I skipped ahead by like 20 minutes. I thought bro was shirtless for a second. Good on you man you were not kidding when you said you got bloody.
44.OH were the best faction in GCW. I still don’t know what happened between them and Brett that caused their exodus from GCW but I believe Brett really screwed up with losing so many talented guys, especially Atticus.
Matt Cardona was the intercontinental champion and having a garbage death match with a toothless crackhead changed his life….. Gee I can’t see why WWE fired him 🙄
OK! Common sense to not throw out the baby with the bath water in regards to potentially Matt and Nick Gage forming a tandem. But the elephant in the room is who could/should/would be their Supermen/Kryptonite?
When i talk abour old school Blood Feuds like Tommy Rich vs Buzz Sawyer, i say to younger fans "imagine Nick Gage vs Cardona in the 1980's"
Love the idea of a Directors cut / commentary on your biggest matches! Hope this becomes a longer running series the vibes are great

Nick Gage is soooo Goated and your so dope but now your unstoppable. This was my first time seeing Cardona like this. This match is Epic.
I got to see you wrestle gage again at this year’s homecoming. You fucking killed it bro!
Your commentary made this match even better
Damn this match was violent but fun. So much blood loss. You guys are nuts. lol Great commentary and I hope there's more match commentary in future uploads. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This match alone got me watching GCW
Hell of a match. You stuck it out and crushed it! You deserve all the fame and heat that came after!
I love the fact that you’re putting yourself over so much lol jacked and tanned! lol good stuff Matt

This is like a DVD Commentary from the classic WWE DVD sets
Fun idea with Matt talking about the background and giving some insight! Love this! Please do Deathmatch Busters Vs Maki Death Kill, next!!
This is so fun to watch you talk about this.
This match is so amazing. Much respect to you and gage. You did great business
my favorite is when you just scream "what is happening??"
I was just watching the Major Podcast Jakks special then I got this notification, you spoil us broski 🤙
this introduced me to GCW obviously i’ve seen the logo cause Mox reps em hard but the first time i watched a PPV it was super fun
Love this! Can’t wait for more
I think that was the most bloodiest match i've ever seen, that's crazy
Wild incredible need more Cardona Commentates
Merry Christmas Broski!
Youre the best! Legend!
Matt You are my favorite wrestler in history, Hope you get the push you deserved.
Love you both man. We need a rematch for sure!!!

Matt you should also do a Cardona Commentary for the Moxley screw job..would be a cool mini series lol
Keep Killin it broski !!!!

This was great!
This venue is a mini golf? As everyone has stated great idea it adds an extra layer to matches and these times
This match is up there with Born to be Wired for brutality. All hail the deathmatch king! 👑

@Matt Cardona will you go back to wwe and do you remember the internet champion you had?
Your the best keep being the best indy God ever
You're
Awesome match, was really expecting a 'thumb tack' bag to be pulled out but with elite heads,hands etc inside it instead a little like the Lego brick version. Thought it would of been perfect!
I remember thinking what the hell Zack Ryder doing death matches? Knew they were layers to his art work this match
Not gonna lie, but you'd probably carry ROH for over a year if TK pulled his head out of his ass and signed you to an actual deal.
I’m not gonna lie, I skipped ahead by like 20 minutes. I thought bro was shirtless for a second. Good on you man you were not kidding when you said you got bloody.
this shit was hilarious 😂
King of the Death Match is and always will be Mick Foley! And I agree with what Mr. Foley said in that very ring: “Fuck Matt Cardona!”
The match that got me into nick gage and death match wrestling
What titles your holding right now mattttttt
Broski so tan he looks like a slim jim
What titles are you holding rn
Thought Nick gage was fighting dvon for a min then was like dam suntan
Of course Meltzer thought it was fake at the end with people throwing things into the ring 🙄

Dude that's not a tan U look red
Great commentary...but uh oh...you could watch out for all the uh ohs😊
Doesn’t need a major company to be successful, but yet the only reason he’s so well known is because he was in a major company to begin with.. 🤔
Narrated by himself is more funny. bravo Matt congratulations and fuck the crowd.
You hate fun
All hail the Death Match King
