New GCW Champion crowned at Cage of Survival 2


There is a new GCW Champion.
Blake Christian won the title at Cage of Survival 2 on Sunday from the Showboat in Atlantic City.
Christian earned the right to challenge the champion at any time by winning the Grab the Brass Ring ladder match at Joey Janela’s Spring Break 7. He cashed in on yesterday’s show during the Cage of Survival match between former champion Masha Slamovich and her challenger Rina Yamashita.
Christian took advantage of both champion and challenger having already gone through a grueling match to pin Slamovich and win the belt. The crowd booed and pelted the ring with garbage as he celebrated with the title.

Christian becomes the 23rd wrestler to win the GCW Championship and begins the 25th title reign in its lineage. Nick Gage is the only champion to hold the title more than once. His 988 days spent with it across three reigns is also a record.
