I had a great time at the Lights Out show Friday night in Colorado.
The venue was small and had no air conditioning, so it was pretty hot the whole evening. There were large pillars obstructing my view for the first part of the show, but some people behind me left mid-way through so I got to move and get a slightly better view. I'd guess the crowd was between 200-300, probably on the lower end.
Before the show I met Fuego del Sol and Man Like DeReiss. I got autographed 8x10's from both of them. Fuego was especially nice and very thankful for the support. DeReiss was very nice too, though a little quiet.
After the show I got an autographed 8x10 from Joey Janela. He was kind of quiet too, but it was late and I'd seen him running around before the show taking care of business, so I'm sure he was beat. I think there were others out signing after the show, but I couldn't see through the crowd.
The show itself was fun. The tag team match with Effy/Dark Shiek vs Fuego del Sol/Sam Stackhouse was fun. Broski Jimmy Lloyd had lots of heat for his match with Danhausen. It was cool seeing all of these folks wrestle in person.
Zilla Fatu's match with Cole Radrick was entertaining. Zilla has a great presence already. He'll be a big star someday.
Allie Katch vs Man Like DeReiss was a comedy match but was still fun. I would have liked to seen DeReiss in a more serious match though.
I like Mance Warner as the GCW champion too. He has a great heel vibe and was all over the crowd during his match with Jordan Oliver. Good match, but it did really feel more like a set up for the Mance/Janela feud.
The main even death match was good. First time seeing a death match in person. The crowd was so hot for Nick Gage. Orin Veidt did a good job bumping and selling for Gage, and his back was torn up from the glass spots. Gage sure can a crowd fired up.
I hope GCW comes back again.
