In an electrifying turn of events, All Elite Wrestling (AEW) star Danhausen made history by becoming the newest addition to the elite group of wrestlers who have held the GCW World Championship title.
During GCW’s Rather You Than Me event, Danhausen faced off against Blake Christian in a thrilling match that had the crowd on the edge of their seats. In a shocking twist, the Very Nice, Very Evil star blindsided his opponent with the title belt, securing a pin and claiming the championship.
However, Matt Cardona, GCW’s General Manager, stepped in to restart the match, allowing Blake Christian to regain control and retain the title.
Despite the brief nature of his reign, Danhausen etched his name alongside the likes of Matt Cardona, Jon Moxley, and Tama Tonga as GCW World Champions.
This triumphant moment came on the heels of a personal tragedy for Danhausen and his wife, Lauren Jiles.
Recently, Lauren took to social media to share the heartbreaking news of their miscarriage, and the couple has been updating their followers on their journey through grief. Danhausen later expressed his gratitude for the outpouring of support and kind messages from fans.
The GCW crowd went wild as Danhausen celebrated his brief title win, and although it may not be officially recognized in the promotion’s record books, the memory will linger with fans.
As Danhausen returns to the AEW scene, speculation is rife about his future title ambitions. Will he make a push for the championship in his home promotion?
Danhausen’s resilience and perseverance in the face of personal tragedy have earned him widespread admiration and respect. His GCW World Championship win, however fleeting, serves as a testament to his dedication to the craft and his ability to overcome adversity. As he looks to the future, fans can expect to see more of the same high-energy performances that have solidified his position as a fan favorite.
