For 722 days, Gage has defended the title. Every GCW card a new contender would challenge Gage and Gage would win. Even winning a tournament named after him to keep his championship.

Right after the second match he appeared and offered Gage his title back. Sliding it into the ring. Gage called RSP out, saying he knows what type of person Ricky Shane Page is. Ricky made Gage promise he would defend the title against RSP and Gage agreed at any time and any place.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, it was time for the main event. Nick Gage vs AJ Gray for the GCW Championship. The match started like most GCW title defenses with brawling and weapons.
