ECW legends set for GCW Hammerstein Ballroom show

Four ECW legends have been booked for Game Changer Wrestling’s return to the Hammerstein Ballroom.

Masato Tanaka, Tajiri, Super Crazy, and Little Guido (Nunzio) are all set to compete at The People vs. GCW, though their matches have not been announced yet. The show is taking place from New York City and will air live on TrillerTV+.

Returning to the Hammerstein Ballroom — where ECW once staged events — holds special meaning for Tanaka. His last-ever match against the late Mike Awesome took place at ECW One Night Stand 2005 at the Hammerstein. In a tweet this morning, Tanaka reflected on the moment and said he never thought it would be the last match of their legendary rivalry.

I'm going to the venue where Mike and I last matched.。
I never thought that would be the last time

One Night Stand 2005 also featured a three-way dance with familiar opponents Super Crazy, Tajiri, and Little Guido. Super Crazy got the win that night.

This is GCW’s second time ever running the Hammerstein Ballroom. The theme of the show is that — after their first event at the venue in January 2022 received mixed-to-negative reviews — GCW gets a chance at redemption this time.

Here’s what has been announced for the card so far:

El Hijo del Vikingo vs. Sidney Akeem
GCW Tag Team Champions Dominic Garrini & Kevin Ku defend against Cole Radrick & Alec Price
Doors, Ladders & Chairs match for the vacant GCW Ultraviolent Championship: Matt Tremont vs. Brandon Kirk vs. Drew Parker vs. John Wayne Murdoch vs. TBA vs. TBA
Masato Tanaka, Tajiri, Super Crazy, Little Guido, Josh Barnett, and more set to compete
