Dark Sheik Walked Out On GCW When They Brought In Drake Wuertz
At GCW Homecoming in August, Drake Wuertz made a surprise appearance, helping Joseph Sawyer win the GCW Title.
Wuertz returned the next night, competing in a deathmatch and apologizing for his past actions, which included pushing QAnon views, publicly arguing against mandating mask-wearing, calling PRIDE month “woke propaganda,” and more.
On social media, Dark Sheik revealed she walked out of GCW over Drake returning.
“when they brought in drake and I was the only one who walked out, im pretty sure I became the last outlaw. But if a signed guy took a week off for injury. now its “We’re all gcw””

The second part is a reference to Atticus Cogar calling out GCW Champion Joseph Sawyer for missing events due to injury.
Sheik has not wrestled for GCW since April. Drake Wuertz has not competed since his return bout at Homecoming night two.
