Ok Matt Cardona as Zack Ryder in the WWE definitely had the better attires and better entrance but this is what we needed from Zack Ryder in the WWE the major push and the long iconic matches sadly we never got that.
Something snapped in Zack’s head when Kane pushed him off the stage in a wheelchair and his best friend took his girlfriend… He was like, hey let’s wrestle nick gage! 😂

I gotta give respect to cardona for this you have to think about the fact that pretty much the majority of his wwe career it was pg and he was rarely in any hardcore type matches and rarely if ever bled.
@@codyjohns6525 I don't know how old Nick Gage is but when he's 50 he probably won't even be able to walk. I don't think it was worth it making $200 a match.
@@jimh.412 maybe it’s not about the money . There was a good 2000 fans there. Maybe , just maybe wrestlers just like wrestling . You know , practicing their craft. Also you say death match wrestling is garbage . But you fail to realize there are many , many types of styles of wrestling . Wrestling for different markets of fans. Death match, strong style, technical , brawls, lucha , comedy , submission and many more. The beauty of wrestling , there is no right or wrong way of doing things. Those 2,000 fabs loved the death match and gcw is a fast growing company and that is what matters.
Perhaps I'm looking way to into this but to Me I see the story of the typical wwe baby face stepping in world of the indie baby face and a battle of contrast
Not a fan of death matches, I can really only watch them once in a blue moon, but I got a ton of respect for the people who put themselves through this shit just to put on a show. Death matches are not for normal men or women, you gotta really be into that craft and still be able to shake hands after you do your business.
Gcw is great, still feel like the stabbing is a bit torture porny tho, think the smashing over their heads is enough. Slicing and jabbing makes me feel like I shouldn’t be enjoying what I’m watching
Well, because first he is a Heel and never related to deathmatches at all is more into the atletic style, Gage in GCW is a hero they love him for his deathmatches more from his ring skill. and you know GCW wil never want a WWE superstar wins over his hero so thats it. Personally i dont like how the crowd reacts (throwing garbage) i know your mad because his the heel but is not necessary to do that
If you had told me 10 years ago that Zack Ryder would be wrestling deathmatches, I'd laugh at your face. Comes to show anyone in the wrestling business can reinvent themselves so long as they have the motivation. Hell, who knows, maybe 10 years from now Otis is a Hardcore Legend in GCW
I love how people are saying respect to Matt. Dude willingly allowed himself to get light with weapons so that he can bleed all over the place work like 100 drunk guys. What's there to respect?
The fact that many including myself can say he was living the pampered life in WWE for so long that he didn't need to come out and do something like this... yet he did.
Nothing but disrespect for ignorant comments like this!! Dude took a literal beating throughout most of the match and deserved that win hands down! If you want why don't you take a few spinebusters, piledrivers and super-plexs off the top all the while bumping into a pile of broken glass. And then when you're all cut up, see what one light tube busted over all that feels like, let alone 20 of them, and tell me how you feel after it all!! But you must be a regular Sherlock Holmes because you actually cracked the case on the biggest secret of pro wrestling.... They actually allow themselves to get hit and bleed and work like they lost tons more blood than they actually did. Way to solve that age-old mystery that has been plauging us for years and years
Not a lot of WWE wrestlers come down of their cloud and perform a match like this one, was it a technical match? no it wasn't, was it a 5 star match? no it wasn't, but the guy went really hard at it against one of the most brutal wrestlers nowadays and won so at least for me that´s why i respect him
The only part about this match I like is that Matt/Zack won. Other than that. Matt should not be taking the beating and dominance he took in this match. This does not suit Matt at all.
The cuts aren't that deep, and they knew where they can hit each other with the light tube, It gonna be painful, you are gonna bleed but the amount of stress in your body in one match like this is equal to have 6 or 7 shows in a week, giving and receiving hits as in a WWE schedule
Mmyeah... i still think deathmatch those jabronis think its " great" that not pro wrestling...that bs... BUT...i may changed my mind, cause i loved that match! 😃
For all the marks spreading hate in the comment section if you don't like deathmatches don't watch em they are doing it by themselves no one is forcing them to do it so kindly keep your negativity and hatred to yourself there is already enought toxicity in the world so your assistance is not needed to add more to it thank you
He made himself over with his UA-cam channel, he proved that he has charisma and mic skills and for that he got his wrestlemania moment (although wwe screwed him the day after), he could be bigger than he was allowed to by them, so it's nice to see him wrestling and enjoying being a free agent and making himself more over
GCW could be good. They need to get medical staff. They need to get better security, and they need to hire good talent. I’m not talking about these guys, but some of the people on their promotion are way too amateur Also, they need to stop booking matches where is female versus male that to me is truly disgusting to watch
Matt Cardona went and did something no one thought he would do. Huge, huge props to him for doing this match!
indie world titles are nothing special. even Spike Dudley won heavyweight titles in indie promotions
@@kcazzzzz the dude went and did a death match, after years of doing a “safe” style of wrestling. Give him props

You can see the big improvement with Matt Cardona after his released with wwe he’s blowing up in the indies
That's because WWE is an ocean and indies are ponds.

Reminds me of the old wcw and ECW crowds.
BLOODY HELL! This takes me back to the INSANE days of ECW.
As is tradition Matt immediately robbed a bank with the belt to celebrate
Hell nah😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
Most important Match of Cardonas career. For sure
Something snapped in Zack’s head when Kane pushed him off the stage in a wheelchair and his best friend took his girlfriend…
He was like, hey let’s wrestle nick gage! 😂
Excelente noticia y saludos desde Lima Perú
Matt Cardona will back to impact wrestling
The best highlight fo sho
Wonderful match🔝👍
Always hated Zack Ryder but damn earned my respect after seeing him take a beating and give it back
That match looked great
Matt cardona killed by his former gimmick wo wo wo zick Rider.
Name of the song????
I respect him as zack ryder.
Even more as Matt Cardona. 💪
Actually watching the end, the first few rows are being pelted as well. Not sure why fans would do that but just seems dumb overall. Good for matt but the fans were stupid

Biggest crowed ever for an American death match!
Matt cardona looking very underappreciated right now.
Definitely in my top 20 matches
Legend ECW
This match was 🔥
Matt Cardona or Riot!
I just don't like Cage pops up after a count! But props to both of them!
He got squashed then did a wwe 2k comeback
Never realized Bradley Cooper was so violent
You nailed it 😂 I always thought his face was familiar back in wwe
Someone name the song in the video for me please? That first drop was dirty!!!
Great storytelling
Man, that he pulled a match worth watching out of Nick Gage, and all those slobs in the audience were pissed…
Mm as a wrestling fan I don't enjoy this kind of matches. Cardona looked very good by the way, if we keep the weapons and thrash away.
I agree with you these type of matches should only be for certain wrestlers.
Watching this after Cardona became the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion
Song?
every wrestling fan thought this was gonna be a joke!!!!
Its never a joke when it comes to nick gage
Embarassment
It was a joke
@BigBlackBootyDaddy better than garbage wwe
@BigBlackBootyDaddy actually both GCW and Cardona gained many more thousands dollars than you think, so for both this was a great business
The light bulbs are cool, but I wonder if anyone's ever dumped a whole tub of Legos on the mat.
Too over the top with the trash throwing. Not sure who’s idea that was, but they didn’t need to plant that…
