Pro Wrestlers' Meet-And-Greet Turns Into A Real Battle Royale

Posted • February 2, 2025: Joey Janela has commented on an incident at a meet and greet following GCW’s show in Indianapolis last night. In a video circulated online, Janela is seen being confronted by independent wrestler Dylan Bostic at the event. Bostic flips over Janela’s table, and the two grapple briefly before onlookers attempted to break it up. At the end of the video, Janela appears to be holding Bostic down as others are kicking him. Janela and Bostic were previously involved in a dispute in late 2020 following the death of Brodie Lee. Bostic posted online that he was upset at the compensation he received from AEW for working as an extra and many in AEW felt his comments were insensitive considering they were grieving the loss of their friend and co-worker at the time.

Britt Baker posted a statement to X on the matter, referring to Bostic as a “sick human,” and writing, “The wrestling world is mourning the loss of an amazing friend, husband, and father and your bitching about $120?” Evidently, Janela sent a private message to Bostic over his comments. Bostic posted a screenshot of Janela’s message and challenged him to a fight.
