Does going to five of these make me an expert?

Game Changer Wrestling / Josh Barnett's Bloodsport XV
April 17 • The Horseshoe • Las Vegas, NV
Show #75

Through the quirks of GCW scheduling, and the routine Mania Week travel, I somehow ended up at the final five shows under Josh Barnett's vision for Bloodsport. This one being the "final" was only announced following the main, and then quickly tweaked from GCW folks that this is the last under Josh; they hold the rights to keep going with it.

Neither a sport nor usually that bloody, Bloodsport has always been an oddity. It's a show with a comprehensive list of rules that are never actively enforced. And it ends up being a demilitarized zone where talent from a lot of different companies come together to work together.

That said, I've always apprecited it if for no other reason than that the lack of ropes makes the photography really easy. And there was something extra special about this one knowing that Steve Austin watched Miyu Yamashita raise some hell.
