GCW Homecoming: Night One Results 07.25.20 – Lio Rush Makes Surprise Appearance, Takes Out Joey Janela

GCW held their Homecoming: Night One show in Atlantic City, NJ on Saturday night and featured a surprise appearance by Lio Rush, who was released by WWE back in April and had seemed to indicate in recent weeks that he was done with wrestling. Rush was the handler for Yoshihiko (a doll) under a mask against Joey Janela, eventually revealing himself and hitting Janela with a frog splash. Rush and Janela are longtime rivals. Rush is now set to face Joey Janela Sunday night at Night Two of GCW Homecoming.
