Gage reached new heights in 2021, as the popular series, “Dark Side of the Ring” spotlighted his remarkable career, and he faced Chris Jericho on AEW Dynamite. When speaking with Fightful, GCW Owner Brett Lauderdale stated the following about the contract: “This is a major milestone moment for both Nick and GCW. I have always been against the idea of contracts in GCW but there are exceptions to every rule. “From day 1, Nick has put his body, and literally his life on the line for the fans inside the squared circle. He deserves, and has earned the right to be rewarded for 20+ years of hard work and sacrifice.
“This historic contract will do just that, allowing him to continue his in-ring career at a pace that is beneficial to his health, while beginning to focus on opportunities that take him towards the next phase of his career. “GCW would not have achieved the level of success it has without Nick F’N Gage, and we are proud to be able to say that GCW will remain Nick’s home for the rest of his career.” Lauderdale then commented on the news in a tweet; he stated that it’s the “first and likely last contract GCW will ever offer.” He made it clear the deal is meant to let Gage go out on his terms with GCW.
