Summary

Matt Cardona, host of the Major Wrestling Figure Podcast, is the GCW Champion (much to the chagrin of GCW fans), and he’s loving every moment! He explains how it happened, why he got in the ring with Nick Gage, and what the experience was like. Matt does a breakdown of the match, the pizza cutter spot, the extreme bleeding, and the fan reaction. He explains why he took the GCW Title to Disneyland, how he survived the death threats and the cross-country flight the day after the match, and when you can expect to see him defend his new title. Matt’s also talking about the action figure renaissance in pro wrestling, what inspired the action figure line that he’s producing and distributing, which figures are worth the most money, how his own collection started, and the rare figures he’s still searching for to this day.
