Your winner, Jackson!
What an emphatic win that was for Brad Jackson! He’s unleashed his inner monster since losing that GFC Championship, Hope-Marie Osborne took the brunt of his anger on our last show. But he seemed a little more restrained in this match. Jackson appeared to be a little slow to leave the ring after this match, walking out of the arena backwards as he looked out at the crowd. There was no wild smile, no glint in his eye. He just walked off through the curtain without a word.
