Gail Kim to appear at GCW event

Posted: Nov 21st 2025 By: Joseph Currier

Game Changer Wrestling is capitalizing on a social media controversy by bringing in Gail Kim for one of its events.

Back in September, GCW owner Brett Lauderdale and Kim got into it on social media after Kim called a death match spot “pure trash.” The indie promotion has now announced that Kim will be in East Rutherford, New Jersey this Saturday (November 22) for an appearance at its Fan Slam convention.

The convention is taking place in conjunction with GCW’s Dream On event at the American Dream mall. It looks like Kim will be at the show itself as well, with her getting into a back and forth with Joey Janela to set up the appearance.

“The irony? Of me coming to a fan convention? ….. I wasn’t planning on coming to the show but since you insist on calling someone out who’s forgotten more than you know about wrestling a match, I’ll be happy to stop by and say a few words,” Kim tweeted after Janela called her convention booking ironic. “You’re welcome. See you there Saturday.”

The exchange continued from there with Kim and Janela continuing to trade insults:

Dream On is one of GCW’s signature annual events. Janela is facing KJ Orso at the show, which has a start time of 2 p.m. Eastern. The convention begins at 10 a.m. and will run until show time. Killer Kross, “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan, Rhino, and Tommy Dreamer are among the other convention guests.
