Josh Barnett Says He Wasn’t Consulted On Bloodsport Reborn
On Monday night, GCW announced Bloodsport Reborn.
No details were given on the event, which had been run by Josh Barnett since 2019. At Bloodsport XV in April, Barnett announced that the Bloodsport concept would stop for the foreseeable future. Barnett said he wouldnβt bury it for good, but that itβs done for now.
On Tuesday, Barnett replied to IQWrestler, who said they were not consulted on Bloodsport Reborn.
Barnett said, “You and me both.”

Though Bloodsport was put together by Barnett, it was part of GCW The Collective during WrestleMania weekends and had GCW branding, even when the event traveled to Europe and Japan.
On Monday, in a new interview, he said that he was shopping the event and had bites from people. You can find his full comments here.
