8 Wrestling Shows With EMBARRASSING Attendances
8. GFW Live (Richmond, Virginia)
In May 2015, Jeff Jarrett launched a lurid lime green venture with some seriously lofty ambitions. According to its preposterous mission statement, Global Force Wrestling would feature "elite professional athletes from five different continents", and would boast "real stories, real people, and real meaning."
One of those real, elite level professionals turned out to be an ancient Kevin Nash, who, seemingly on his way back from the gym, popped his head in the door for a GFW show in Richmond, Virginia's 12,000 capacity Diamond baseball stadium.
Unfortunately, Big Sexy, two decades since claiming the WWF Championship, was not a big draw - so no difference there. Of those 'real people' Jarrett mentioned, just 250 of them, um, 'flocked' into the obviously oversized amphitheater, as the nWo founded endorsed Luke Gallows, and by extension, the Bullet Club. At one point, there was legitimately almost as many people in the ring as in the bleachers.
