Global Force Wrestling held its first live events of 2017 this past weekend in New York. They were in Long Island on Friday night and a baseball stadium in Staten Island on Saturday night. The shows featured the GFW debuts of John Hennigan (Johnny Mundo) and several other talents from Lucha Underground.
Saturday night’s show had an estimated 500 people in attendance, with fans seated around the ring and also in the bleachers. Here are the results from the baseball stadium show, courtesy of Nick Paglino of Wrestlezone:
1. Fallah Bahh def. Kevin Matthews with the Banzai Drop.
2. Da Maff, Anthony Bowens & Pat Buck def. New Heavenly Bodies after a torture rack Death Valley Driver from Maff into a top rope frog splash from Bowens. Said to be a great match.
3. Trevor Lee def. Bokara with a rollup and a handful of tights. Crowd didn’t like the ending but it was another very good match. Trevor came out with the X Division Championship and after the match Sonjay Dutt ran out and stole it back
4. Taya Valkyrie def. Allie and Sienna in a triple threat non-title match. This was Taya’s debut.
5. Eli Drake def. Braxton Sutter
6. LAX (c) def. Drago & Sonjay Dutt to retain the GFW Tag Team Championships. They won with a crazy top rope blockbuster into a double team powerbomb. After the match Trevor Lee came back out and stole the X Division Championship again and ran around the baseball field escaping into the outfield.
7. James Storm, Moose & John Morrison def. Ethan Carter III, Low-Ki & Lashley. Morrison picked up the win with Starship Pain on EC3.
