Joey Janela was once known as AEW’s resident bad boy. Now he has taken his talents to GCW, where he is working to elevate the indie wrestling promotion to new heights. Despite enjoying his role in the independent wrestling scene, Janela has been critical of GCW, the same promotion where he currently holds the Extreme Championship Title.

Although Joey Janela is not the official booker for GCW, he takes charge of organizing his annual Spring Break show during WrestleMania weekend. This show has become one of the most popular independent wrestling events of the year, thanks to Janela’s contributions and efforts.

GCW remains a force on the independent wrestling scene, with a reputation for featuring a wide variety of wrestling styles, including deathmatch wrestling. GCW also prides itself on showcasing up-and-coming talent, such as Jordan Oliver, Billie Starkz, and AEW-signed wrestler Nick Wayne. Despite GCW’s history of pushing the boundaries, Joey Janela has expressed a different opinion.

While speaking on K100 with Konnan and Disco, Joey Janela talked about his current opinion of GCW. Janela stated that he believes the promotion is now ‘woke’ and abides by what the internet says.

“GCW’s woke now. It’s a woke promotion. We’ve gotta abide by the internet sometimes. There’s other stuff out there, you know, but we do have a large mix of people [that] come from different places, and that’s what makes GCW cool.”

We’ll have to see how long he stays in the GCW. Although he hasn’t ruled out making an AEW return, Janela is currently happy where he is. For more updates, stay tuned to Ringside News.
