00:00¡Gracias!
00:30Lightbulbs, barbwires, these are not things that are meant for the human body.
00:41Beyond the fantasy world of larger-than-life heroes and villains
00:45lies the brutal and unforgiving underworld of deathmatch wrestling
00:49and its undisputed king, Nick Gage.
00:55What we're going to do is we're going to light these picks this up.
01:00This isn't a children's TV show on Saturday morning.
01:07When that bell rings, it's real to Nick Gage.
01:10This is going to be a fight.
01:12For the uninitiated, stepping into Gage's domain is an invitation to an arena of pain
01:18where blood will be spilled.
01:21Oh my God! He just sniffed David Arquette!
01:25He's starting to bug out a little bit.
01:27That's how you got cut in the throat.
01:30I told you not to f***ing cut me.
01:32I'm an actor, so I was in over my head.
01:36But for Gage, his most intense battle was fought outside the ring
01:41as the harsh consequences of his lifestyle bled out into real life.
01:46He's shot! Bad, bad, bad, bad!
01:48Leaving him at rock bottom.
01:51Painkillers, Percocet, Oxycontin, all those things.
01:54What do you mean, Nicky rounds a bank?
01:56Why would you do something like that?
01:58You're killing yourself.
01:59Cut that f***ing camera.
02:00Cut the camera.
02:02Gage is in the house.
02:03Gage is going to do what he wants.
02:04And anytime you want to f***ing fight me, you can.
02:06Deathmatch Wrestling is a live-action horror movie.
02:28Raised on the blood-soaked matches of their heroes,
02:33its participants strive to outdo icons of the past
02:37by escalating their brutality to new life-threatening heights.
02:42All to satisfy a bloodthirsty crowd.
02:48You gotta love this s***, man.
02:59Because guess what?
03:00That s*** hurts.
03:02And that s*** burns.
03:06And that s*** might say,
03:09why the s*** am I doing this s*** right now?
03:11Because it ain't the payday.
03:15My name is Nick Gage.
03:16I'm the greatest deathmatch wrestler in the world.
03:20I'm a leader of a gang called Murder, Death, Kill Gang.
03:22I represent Eastern Block Hate Club.
03:25So that's who I am, man.
03:27So for you personally, why deathmatch wrestling?
03:29I'm probably a little crazy in the head.
03:34My pain tolerance is high.
03:38I also want to show other wrestlers
03:41that this style of wrestling is all right, man.
03:44And it can be done.
03:45And there is a fan base.
03:47And it's awesome.
03:48Damn, damn, damn, damn, damn.
03:51Some deathmatch wrestlers are some of the best storytellers,
03:53the best in the world at connecting with an audience.
03:56Nick Gage being one of them.
03:59My name is Jon Moxley.
04:01And I am a professional wrestler.
04:04Jon Moxley!
04:05Jon Moxley is no stranger to ultraviolence.
04:12Oh, good God!
04:14Before reaching world championship status in the mainstream,
04:18Moxley cut his teeth on the indie deathmatch scene
04:21where he routinely crossed paths with Nick Gage.
04:24Who he is in the ring when he walks out and that music hits
04:29and he comes out like,
04:30yeah, Nick Gage, high-fiving,
04:33getting all pumped up,
04:34yeah, getting all excited.
04:36That's how he is all the time.
04:38The first one-on-one encounter,
04:40he pulls a pizza cutter.
04:42And now he's got a pizza cutter!
04:44I'm thinking, you know,
04:45give me a nice working.
04:47I'll do a little poke and twist.
04:49It's all an illusion.
04:51Not so much.
04:54Oh, oh, look at this.
04:56Oh, look at this.
04:58He gives me a pizza cutter.
04:59The crowd goes,
05:00oh, yeah, kill him.
05:02Cut his head off.
05:04So he gets excited.
05:05Nick Gage will do whatever it takes
05:07to be CCW world champion once again.
05:11I don't want to just tackle you
05:13and start having a real fight here.
05:15I'm trying to keep this match on track.
05:16We got a good story.
05:17The crowd's into this.
05:18You know, please don't pizza cut
05:19the out of my face so much.
05:21And this crowd is eating it up!
05:23And now he's excited
05:24and I just feel the excited energy
05:26and I'm like, oh, God, no, no.
05:28And then he takes the pizza cutter
05:29and puts it in my mouth.
05:31I fight his head across my mouth.
05:34Nick Gage is getting carried away
05:36since Ultra by the wing.
05:38And I'm like,
05:40that mother cut my tongue out.
05:42Look at Box's face.
05:43All right!
05:45Look at Punk's throat attached.
05:47Oh, okay.
05:47And we continue to match
05:48and the intensity is off the charts.
05:51Oh, what a...
05:53Right to the sternum!
05:56Once you go out there
05:57and you get into it,
05:57you feel that Nick Gage intensity.
05:59The 30 people in the crowd
06:00are going,
06:01and you're just like,
06:02but it's like,
06:03this is what you live for.
06:05I don't give a shit
06:06how much money I make.
06:08I don't give a shit
06:08how much of a star I am.
06:09I don't give a shit
06:11about any of that.
06:12I do this for that feeling.
06:18I love the feeling
06:20of being in a locker room
06:21with half of my board gone,
06:24smoking a cigarette,
06:25drinking a beer.
06:26And that is the feeling
06:27that is so addictive
06:28that what keeps you coming back.
06:29I think that's probably
06:31what keeps Nick Gage
06:31coming back, too.
06:32Oh, yeah.
06:33One of the finals,
06:34it's going to be
06:34with Nick Gage.
06:35For nearly a decade,
06:37Gage built a reputation
06:39on a fearless appetite
06:40for violence,
06:41but he would be put
06:42to the ultimate test
06:43on the most ruthlessly
06:45unforgiving stage,
06:46the Tournament of Death.
06:50Every year,
06:51fans descend
06:52on backyard farmlands
06:53to witness
06:54a multi-round endurance
06:56test of violence,
06:57where wrestlers
07:01must survive
07:01several gruesome matches
07:03over the course
07:04of a single day.
07:07Tournament of Death
07:08takes place in Delaware,
07:09out on this field,
07:11kind of like Woodstock
07:12for Deathmatch wrestling.
07:13Fans out there
07:14parking their vans,
07:15getting drunk,
07:16smoking weed.
07:17You know,
07:17we need a place
07:17where we can have blood
07:18and glass and fire
07:19and cops aren't going
07:21to break up the party.
07:22It's quite the scene.
07:26In the finals
07:27of the tournament,
07:28Gage is to face
07:29Thumbtack Jack
07:31in a fight
07:31that would redefine
07:33the meaning
07:33of Deathmatch wrestling.
07:35Nothing could prepare
07:36the crowd
07:36for the real-life
07:38horror show
07:38that was about
07:39to unfold.
07:41Okay.
07:42This is f***ing insane.
07:43I was right there
07:44for this.
07:46My name is
07:47Brett Lauderdale.
07:48I'm the owner
07:49and promoter
07:49of Game Changer Wrestling.
07:51Definitely been through
07:52it all with him.
07:53Good and bad.
07:55You know,
07:55very good
07:56and very bad.
07:59At this time
08:00in 2009,
08:01I was full-time referee
08:02for CZW.
08:04You know,
08:04I was in the ring.
08:07This was a really
08:08significant match
08:09because Nick Gage
08:10was peaking in popularity
08:12at this time.
08:12He was as popular
08:13as he had ever been
08:14in his career.
08:15And Thumbtack Jack,
08:16he was an import
08:17from Germany.
08:18You know,
08:19he was an international
08:19deathmatch star.
08:21So it was really
08:22a clash at that time
08:23of, like,
08:24the two most popular
08:24deathmatch wrestlers.
08:26They imported
08:27some f***ing
08:28douchebag
08:29from f***ing Germany.
08:31They're talking
08:31all this s***
08:32about Thumbtack Jack.
08:33He's tough as hell
08:34and all that s***.
08:35And I'm thinking,
08:36man,
08:36this is my f***ing house.
08:37This is my backyard
08:38and I'm gonna smash
08:39this m***h.
08:40You know what?
08:43He looks like
08:43a f***ing puss
08:44to the bitch.
08:47200 light tube deathmatch.
08:49Entire ring surrounded
08:50by vertical light tubes
08:51stuck in between the ropes.
08:54Complete pit of glass.
08:59I remember him
09:02getting whipped
09:02into the ropes,
09:03which were, of course,
09:04surrounded by tubes.
09:05I remember that.
09:09And at first,
09:10it didn't look anything
09:11like out of the ordinary.
09:13Thumbtack Jack.
09:15But one of the video guys,
09:16they all reacted
09:17immediately.
09:21He's cut!
09:22What happened was
09:23the light tube,
09:24when I hit it,
09:25the top of it snapped.
09:27So the bottom
09:28of it's sticking there.
09:29And I just hit it
09:30the wrong way
09:31and then bang,
09:32got me.
09:34Looks down,
09:35lifts his arm
09:36and just...
09:38It's his buckets of blood.
09:43I'm like,
09:43ah, f***,
09:43I'm f***ed up.
09:44I know my body.
09:45Sliced my arteries.
09:47He's cut!
09:48Bad, bad, bad, bad.
09:49But we've got Nick Gage
09:50who's been seriously,
09:52seriously injured.
09:53Thumbtack Jack,
09:54frustrated at this turn
09:55of events.
09:57John!
09:57John!
09:58A guy like Nick Gage
09:59to just get up
10:00and walk off like that,
10:02you know it had to be serious.
10:03The nurse lady,
10:06he wanted her
10:07to tape him up
10:08so he could go back
10:09to the ring.
10:10Tape that f***ing s*** up.
10:11I'm not losing to this, dude.
10:13Tape that s*** up, y'all.
10:13Lay down first.
10:15Where does he put
10:15a bunch of towels
10:16in there and tape it up?
10:17No!
10:18I got one move, man.
10:19No.
10:19No.
10:20This is your last move.
10:21Well, can I act like
10:22I'm trying to go out there
10:23and you guys bring me back now?
10:24No.
10:24No.
10:25No.
10:26For Nick,
10:26it's not registering,
10:27you know,
10:27like, I'm going to prove
10:28how tough I am
10:29by going back out to the ring
10:30and finishing this match,
10:31even if that means
10:32I have to die out there.
10:33Let me go out there.
10:34No.
10:34Nicky, no.
10:35Give that s*** on camera.
10:36That f***ing want to go out there,
10:38smart mark.
10:39I know.
10:39Put the s*** on camera.
10:40Nick, I understand.
10:51I was in the back,
10:53you know,
10:53of course,
10:54getting bandaged up
10:54and s*** like that.
10:55Cut that f***ing camera.
10:56Cut the camera.
10:57Then they're like,
10:58well,
10:58they're trying to get
10:59the ambulance
11:00on the f***ing property,
11:01but the ambulance
11:02can't get on the property,
11:03so we need a helicopter.
11:05Here comes the f***ing helicopter
11:07laying it down.
11:10And I get in the helicopter
11:11and that's the last thing
11:12I remember.
11:22The nurse that said,
11:23you flatlined
11:24where you were in there
11:24and the doctors brought you back
11:26because you lost too much blood.
11:28Nicky died
11:29and was legally dead
11:30for seven minutes.
11:35He died at a tournament of death.
11:38It's supposed to be a turn of phrase.
11:40You're not actually supposed to die.
11:42And he did.
11:42It just cements
11:44and solidifies
11:45Nick Gage's spot
11:47as a folk hero.
11:51It was probably a boost
11:52to his whole character
11:54and his allure
11:55that
11:56you can't kill him.
11:58He says to this day
11:59that he's willing
12:01and ready
12:02to die in the ring
12:02if that's what it comes to.
12:04And I mean,
12:04can you doubt him after that?
12:06Was there any part of you
12:07that thought
12:08that this could be it for you?
12:09No, no way.
12:10No, I don't go out like that.
12:11I'm going to do this
12:12so I can't do it no more.
12:13I already made my mind up.
12:14I've been wanting to do this
12:20since I was probably
12:21nine years old, man.
12:24Grew up in National Park, New Jersey.
12:25Born and raised.
12:27I represent that shit
12:28to this day.
12:30National Park, New Jersey
12:31is a low income,
12:32probably middle class,
12:34you know, in the 80s
12:34and stuff like that.
12:35I was raised by a single mother.
12:38Patty Dukes,
12:39Pat Wilson, man.
12:40I love her.
12:41This is my mom, man.
12:43Patty Dukes,
12:43Mom Dukes,
12:44that whole town
12:45called her Patty
12:46or Mom Dukes.
12:47Beautiful lady.
12:48And I just wanted to show everybody
12:49that I was raised the right way,
12:51you know what I mean?
12:52Oh my gosh,
12:53his mom was everything to him.
12:55You know, everything.
12:56Everything.
12:57My name is Sandra Culvertson
12:59and we went to the same high school.
13:02Been with him for
13:0320 plus years now.
13:05His mom was literally
13:07breaking up our debt.
13:08It could be the worst day possible.
13:09She'll just come walking in the back.
13:11Hey guys,
13:12I got your food.
13:13Let's eat.
13:13And she was just
13:14a very, very happy person.
13:17Very happy.
13:17And loved Nick.
13:19Loved Nick to death.
13:21My mom had breast cancer.
13:23So we did the walk every year
13:25for the breast cancer walk
13:26in Philadelphia, man.
13:27Because I just love her
13:28and I just wanted to,
13:29you know,
13:30it's your mom, man.
13:31You appreciate her.
13:34I had a brother, Chris.
13:35We'd just go around,
13:37you know,
13:37being crazy,
13:38play football,
13:39play baseball.
13:39We were always
13:41the guys who like
13:42get in the fight
13:43and the football.
13:44Oh, there goes
13:44the Wilson brothers again
13:45and they're fist fighting.
13:49My dad was a big wrestling fan.
13:51So, you know,
13:51that's where it comes from.
13:52We would spend like
13:53weekends at his house
13:54and he's watching
13:55the Saturday Night Maid event.
13:57We don't have to turn it on.
13:58Dad's got it on already.
14:00You know what I mean?
14:00Sometimes I think
14:01he regrets that shit,
14:02you know,
14:03when he was alive
14:03because, man,
14:04we tore his house up.
14:06Yeah.
14:11We had a backyard company
14:13called Hardcore Backyard Wrestling.
14:17We would videotape
14:18our matches
14:19and shit like that.
14:21One time,
14:22we took bar wire
14:23from a farm
14:23that we bought
14:24and we wrapped bar wire
14:26around the poles
14:27and we had a no rope
14:28bar wire match
14:29on the trampoline.
14:33And so,
14:34what's influencing you guys
14:35to like use bar wire
14:37in that way?
14:38Probably Japanese
14:39death matches
14:40we started figuring out.
14:42Cactus and Jack King!
14:47Once I seen
14:48Terry Funk
14:49and Cactus Jack
14:50doing her thing,
14:52the blood,
14:55the violence,
14:56the way they told the story.
14:58We separate the men
14:59from the old bastards!
15:01It was on, man.
15:02I'm like,
15:03we gotta do this.
15:04This is what I wanna do, man.
15:05This is awesome.
15:07Then we started getting
15:07into ECW.
15:09For the love of good!
15:12ECW's the reason
15:13why I f***ing love
15:13doing this shit today.
15:15Out of that came
15:16CZW.
15:17And now we're taking it
15:21to a whole
15:22another level
15:23of craziness
15:23that's never been seen
15:24in the United States
15:25before.
15:26Every single
15:27CZW tournament
15:28of deck.
15:29Driven by their passion
15:30for the hardcore style
15:31of ECW,
15:33the Wilson brothers
15:34brought their
15:35backyard wrestling roots
15:36into upstart promotion
15:38combat zone wrestling
15:39as Nick Gage
15:40and Justice Payne.
15:42Justice Payne!
15:45ECW was so offended
15:50by it.
15:50Oh, these guys
15:51might get hurt.
15:54Light tubes
15:55are too dangerous?
15:56Get the f***
15:57out of here.
15:58They're just men
15:58of the new generation
15:59came along
16:00who's tougher
16:01and f***ing crazier
16:02than they are.
16:03I love it.
16:05It's a very dangerous
16:06situation in there.
16:07When he's in the ring,
16:08I'm literally right there.
16:09I'm always in the front.
16:10I'm like,
16:11yeah,
16:11I'm gonna kill him.
16:13I'm right there
16:13in the front.
16:14I'm just one of the fans.
16:18Oh, man,
16:19it's gotta be at least
16:20at least 100,000 of them.
16:22When he told me
16:23he was gonna get lit on fire,
16:25I told him not to do it.
16:27I think he just told me
16:28he wasn't gonna do it
16:29so that I wouldn't be
16:30like freaking out.
16:31And so when it happened
16:33and I saw the fire coming out,
16:34I'm like,
16:34oh, no,
16:35here we go.
16:40Get him!
16:40Get him!
16:40Get him!
16:41I saw him get lit on fire
16:42and I think someone
16:44told him, like,
16:44stop, drop, and roll.
16:46So I stopped,
16:47drop, and roll.
16:48Get this,
16:48that shit don't even
16:49f***ing work.
16:50I was still on fire
16:52and then they put me out.
16:55And then finally
16:56he took off his shirt
16:56and it finally went out.
17:01After that,
17:01I went into the back.
17:03I never do that.
17:03It's one thing I don't do.
17:04I do not run into the back.
17:06I'll wait to the end
17:06of the show.
17:07But this is one thing
17:08I did go into the back.
17:09Not cute, Kelly.
17:10Do you have any ice?
17:11Do you have ice pack?
17:12He said he was okay,
17:14but I knew he wasn't.
17:15God, it burns.
17:16Is it like bubbling and shit?
17:18Shit.
17:19It's like,
17:19he'll skip.
17:20That heat was tough.
17:21I finished that match.
17:23Scoop!
17:24Damn!
17:25Someone call 9-1-1!
17:28How do you think
17:29he was dealing
17:30with all of the pain
17:31and injury?
17:32Well,
17:34he was definitely
17:37not going to
17:38physical therapy
17:39or
17:39exploring yoga
17:41opportunities.
17:48I was popping heavy
17:49you know,
17:50prescription pills, man.
17:52I was popping perks
17:52and shit like that.
17:53I'm Nicky,
17:58so I go into
17:59a doctor's office.
18:01Oh,
18:01give me 30
18:02rocks sets.
18:04Then they would
18:05do them to you.
18:05It was crazy.
18:07And like,
18:07I've never been
18:08a druggie guy,
18:09ever.
18:09And then like,
18:11you know,
18:11when you don't have one,
18:12you're like,
18:12whoa,
18:12what the fuck's that?
18:13At some point,
18:18Oxycontin got hard to get
18:19because it's very expensive.
18:22He can walk down the street
18:23and get heroin
18:25for $10 a bag
18:27and get all the same
18:28effects
18:29and get more of it.
18:31How much of his income
18:32would you say
18:32would go to drugs?
18:33All of it.
18:35Definitely all of it.
18:36You know,
18:37I looked at him
18:37like a guy
18:38who was in trouble
18:38and he had no choice
18:39and now he's been
18:40in this really bad situation.
18:42It is what it is.
18:43I mean,
18:43he was an addict.
18:44That was basically
18:46his life.
18:51And here we go,
18:52fans.
18:53Our main event tonight.
18:54As Nick Gage
18:55descends deeper
18:56into addiction,
18:57his career
18:58and his relationship
18:59with his brother Chris
19:00begins to deteriorate.
19:02Face to face
19:02in the ring,
19:03Chris's anger
19:04and frustration
19:05is about to erupt.
19:07Let's just put it this way,
19:08man.
19:08I went out there
19:09and I wasn't
19:10on top of my game
19:11and
19:12and
19:13I just didn't remember
19:15how to do stuff.
19:16Okay.
19:18I guess
19:19my brother
19:19was a little upset
19:20in the ring
19:21so
19:21he said,
19:23wake the f*** up
19:23and literally
19:24slapped me
19:25like a bitch.
19:26You're a champion
19:27Justice League.
19:28So I'm like,
19:29damn man,
19:30what the f***?
19:30The softball
19:31of Justice Payne
19:33that hard left
19:34at the head of his brother.
19:36The match started
19:37and a few minutes later
19:39Chris just grabbed him
19:40and put him in his finisher,
19:42the pain thriller.
19:43Sustain his pain thriller.
19:44You've got to be kidding me.
19:48What?
19:50Pretty much dislocated,
19:51almost broke my shoulder
19:52and I was very,
19:53very upset about that.
19:55That was very weird.
19:57It was like
19:58at the beginning
19:58of the match,
19:59like aren't you
19:59going to have a match
20:00before you start
20:01working towards
20:01the finishing sequence?
20:03After falling out
20:12with his brother,
20:13it seems Nick
20:13has reached rock bottom.
20:15But things get even worse
20:17when his mother
20:18loses her battle
20:19with breast cancer.
20:21And how did that affect you?
20:23Oh,
20:23not good,
20:25you know.
20:31Now that my mom
20:33died,
20:33I didn't give a f*** man.
20:34I didn't really care.
20:35And then I was starting
20:37to, you know,
20:37starting to get into
20:38that shit,
20:40you know.
20:41Bad combination, bro,
20:42you know.
20:44Over the next few years,
20:46Nick spirals
20:47further into desperation
20:49and finds himself
20:51on the verge
20:51of homelessness.
20:53So at this time,
20:53I pretty much didn't have
20:54no friends or family
20:55no more, you know.
20:57My mom passed away,
20:58my dad passed away.
20:59I didn't talk to my brother.
21:01I didn't talk to nobody, man.
21:03So I'm in the f*** hood
21:04and I move in
21:05with a girl's mom
21:07and I'm doing nothing, man.
21:11I'm sitting on the couch
21:12doing nothing, man.
21:14And then one day
21:14she freaked out
21:15and kicked us both out
21:16in the cold air.
21:17At that point in time,
21:22we weren't really into
21:23going to work,
21:24having money
21:25and paying bills
21:26and stuff like that.
21:26We didn't care.
21:27We did not care at that point.
21:28We did not care.
21:32I was going out of town
21:33and for some reason
21:35my trip got cut short.
21:37You know,
21:37I walked up to my door
21:38and my door was like
21:39unhinged open
21:41and I was like,
21:41you know,
21:42is there somebody here?
21:45I saw two people
21:46sleeping on the floor
21:47and I was like,
21:48oh my God,
21:49that's Nick
21:49and his girlfriend.
21:53And,
21:53I mean,
21:53I was pissed.
21:54F*** him, man.
21:56Kicked me out of his house.
21:57It was f***ing 10 degrees out.
21:59So,
22:00now I'm angry and upset
22:01and I need money
22:02and I got nowhere to go.
22:06So,
22:06that leads to,
22:07you know,
22:08the day of.
22:20I need the money, man,
22:22and I'm freezing
22:22and everybody's kicking me out
22:24so let me go get mine.
22:28So,
22:28I'm walking down the street
22:29and I see this bank
22:30and I look around
22:31and I'm like,
22:32and I left.
22:35I pussied out.
22:38So,
22:38I'm walking down the street
22:39like,
22:39mother f*** man,
22:40you f***ing pussy, man.
22:42So,
22:42I showed up at the next bank
22:43and I went right in
22:44that b***h, man.
22:46I wrote the note,
22:47handed it to her.
22:48I have a gun.
22:50Give me all your money.
22:56Carry the f*** up.
22:58I had to lose my temper
22:59a little,
22:59you know,
22:59just take it too long.
23:02she handed me the money
23:04and I ran all the way
23:06to my boy's house, man.
23:11My front door opened.
23:12He just walked into my kitchen
23:14and dropped a bunch of money
23:16on my kitchen counter
23:17and I was like,
23:19you know,
23:20what is that?
23:23He said to me,
23:24I just robbed a drug dealer
23:25and then I looked at the money
23:26and we're talking brand new,
23:28crisp $20 bills
23:29and I said,
23:31did you just rob a bank?
23:32so I'm at home
23:34and I get a call,
23:36man,
23:37you gotta check your email,
23:38man,
23:39you just gotta,
23:39you gotta look at it.
23:41And I get on a computer
23:41and I open this f***ing email
23:43and it's a picture of him
23:44like at the bank lobby
23:46and it's Nick Gage,
23:48clear as day.
23:55I don't even think
23:56I realized the camera was there.
23:58I think I was just looking up
23:59for some reason, man.
24:00but I looked right in that bitch.
24:03This is a spur-of-the-moment thing
24:05as you can see.
24:05It didn't even have a mask on.
24:08Nick Gage always comes to the ring
24:10with a handkerchief on his face
24:12like he's gonna rob a train
24:14and the time that he chooses
24:15to not wear the mask
24:17is when he actually robs a f***ing bank.
24:22I actually found out
24:23on the newspaper
24:24and his face is on the front of the page
24:27and I'm like,
24:28what?
24:29I just didn't know what to say
24:31and I'm like,
24:31what happened?
24:32And he told me
24:33and I just,
24:36I was with him though.
24:37I didn't leave him.
24:38I didn't turn him in.
24:39I was just with him.
24:40Whatever he does,
24:41I'm with him.
24:42After the robberies,
24:43I'm like,
24:43f***, we gotta get out of here.
24:45So we went to Atlantic City.
24:47My only objective is
24:49to spend this f***ing money.
24:57On the run from the law,
24:59Nick Gage and his girlfriend Sondra
25:01head to Atlantic City.
25:03Without an end goal in sight,
25:05they enter a casino
25:06with one objective.
25:08I'm thinking,
25:09you're going to prison,
25:10but at least ball out
25:11for like a f***ing week.
25:12This was a tough situation for me
25:16because I'm not going to be a snitch
25:18and I'm not going to rat him out.
25:19But I told him,
25:21when you're ready to turn yourself in,
25:22let me know.
25:23And you know,
25:24I spoke to him every day
25:25and it was,
25:25all right,
25:26are you ready?
25:27No?
25:28All right,
25:28I'll talk to you tomorrow.
25:30That went on every day
25:31for, I don't know,
25:31eight, nine days.
25:33And then he called me
25:34and he said,
25:34I'm done,
25:35I'm ready.
25:35I drove to Atlantic City
25:39and I picked him up.
25:41I took him to Burger King
25:43and he got his favorite.
25:45He got a Whopper.
25:47And then it was,
25:48I guess this is it.
25:49I drank a 40
25:50and I smoked a couple blunts
25:52and walked in
25:53and turned myself in.
25:56In the state Supreme Court
25:58of Camden, New Jersey,
26:00Nick pleads guilty
26:01to second degree bank robbery
26:03and is sentenced to five years
26:05in New Jersey State Prison.
26:11They took me up to 3 North Sea,
26:14which is a murder block,
26:16gang block,
26:16and a gun block.
26:20So they put me in there,
26:21right?
26:22And they just go,
26:23go find a bed.
26:26Go find a bed, right?
26:28It's harder than you think, man.
26:31Chris never visited me at all.
26:33No phone calls,
26:34no nothing.
26:36I visited him regularly
26:37from day one
26:38until the day he walked out.
26:40I honestly felt like
26:41he was like a brother to me.
26:43But Chris looked down on him.
26:45He thought it was shameful,
26:47you know?
26:47He's a f***ing criminal,
26:49you know?
26:49My brother's a criminal.
26:50He got himself into this mess
26:51and he can get himself out of it.
26:55So I'm just trying
26:55and trying to get everything together
26:57and all of a sudden
26:58I started getting
26:58non-stop f***ing fan mail.
27:02From fans that don't know me
27:04from a f***ing lick.
27:06Keep your head up, man.
27:07You'll get out soon, man.
27:08Stay focused.
27:10And I realized, man,
27:11people love me, man.
27:13And it's not just a couple people,
27:14it's like a masses of people.
27:16They really sent a letter.
27:17It's no joke.
27:18That's what happened.
27:20That's what kept him pushing it.
27:21It was really amazing
27:22how many people
27:23really looked up to him.
27:26This is just a stack
27:27that came out of one box
27:28of letters, you know,
27:29that he had gotten and saved.
27:31I don't think he realized
27:32the impact that he had on people.
27:35There were three things
27:35I wanted to do.
27:36I wanted to come out
27:37and show everybody,
27:38look, I changed my body,
27:40I changed my mind,
27:40I changed my soul.
27:41And then I wanted to put
27:43this match wrestling
27:45back on the mat, man.
27:47I started training,
27:49training hard.
27:51I mean, he went from
27:52eating Burger King Whoppers
27:53to exercising hardcore
27:55twice a day, every day.
27:57On March 31st, 2015,
28:00just over four years
28:01into his sentence,
28:03Nick Gage is released on parole.
28:05That whole night I didn't sleep.
28:07I was so excited.
28:08We went like an hour
28:09before he actually came out.
28:11So we're like looking
28:12and looking and looking
28:13and finally I see
28:14his big old head
28:14walking through like this thing.
28:16As soon as he opens up that door,
28:17I just took off running.
28:19It was just about
28:19one of the happiest days.
28:23Finally, they give you
28:24release papers
28:25and then finally
28:26you go through them gates
28:27and then, you know,
28:27you got your girl
28:28coming running up.
28:29Boom.
28:30Lauderdale was there
28:31and, you know,
28:32and shit, man.
28:33It was awesome.
28:34Take this shit off.
28:36Take it off.
28:37Jesus Christ.
28:38Take that stuff off, man.
28:41We threw that stuff
28:41all in the trash can
28:42and everything
28:43and brought him
28:43to his other players,
28:44put him back on.
28:46It was cool.
28:47It was cool.
28:48The king is
28:48f***ing home.
28:53I just spent
28:54four and a half years
28:56in f***ing hell.
28:58You know what?
28:59I was f***ing okay with it.
29:01While Nick Gage returns
29:04to raucous crowds
29:05all over the country,
29:07Brett Lauderdale
29:07becomes the owner
29:08of Game Changer Wrestling.
29:10His goal is to launch Nick
29:12to headliner status
29:13and as a tribute to him,
29:15Brett's first ever event
29:16would be a deathmatch tournament
29:18appropriately dubbed
29:19the Nick Gage Invitational.
29:23The day before
29:24the Nick Gage Invitational,
29:27I don't want to say
29:27maybe around 2.30 or 3 p.m.,
29:29I called his phone
29:30and somebody close to him
29:32answered and was crying
29:34saying they got him,
29:35they took him,
29:36they f***ing took him
29:36and put him in the car
29:37and he's gone.
29:47He was doing really good
29:49for a while
29:50and then,
29:52you know,
29:54he definitely fell
29:56into some bad habits again.
29:59You can't, you know,
30:00you can't run away
30:01from them problems.
30:02They just,
30:03they just follow you.
30:06They brought me in
30:07for the drug test
30:08and then I tried
30:09to falsify urine
30:11and they caught me,
30:12you know?
30:13Did he tell you
30:14what happened?
30:14Yeah, he did.
30:15Okay.
30:15Yeah, he told us
30:16that he got caught
30:17with using someone else's.
30:18Right.
30:19Yeah.
30:21That's part of it.
30:22I think there was
30:24more to it
30:24than just having
30:25a jar of somebody
30:26else's piss.
30:28They may or may not
30:29have also tried
30:30to use some sort
30:31of device.
30:32I don't know.
30:32And they caught him
30:33and that was it.
30:39How do you react
30:40to this?
30:41You know,
30:41I was angry,
30:42like,
30:42you f***ing stupid
30:43mother f***er.
30:44Like,
30:44you had everything here
30:45and you couldn't
30:46keep it together,
30:46you know?
30:47and you're in jail
30:49right now.
30:50After being a free man
30:52for only a few months,
30:53a parole violation
30:54sends Nick back to prison
30:56for almost another
30:57two years.
30:58Welcome to Game Changer Wrestling!
31:00While Nick serves
31:01his sentence,
31:02Game Changer Wrestling
31:03grows to become
31:04the premier promotion
31:05for Deathmatch Wrestling.
31:07Determined to give Nick
31:08yet another chance,
31:10Brett Lauderdale continues
31:11to make plans
31:12for his return.
31:13You f***er!
31:14The second time,
31:16I think I was way more
31:17confident that
31:18he was going to
31:18stay out this time.
31:20What's going on, Nick?
31:21What's up, man?
31:21And also,
31:22it helped that GCW
31:24was, like,
31:24a thing now.
31:25Like,
31:25we were among
31:26the industry leaders,
31:27so not only did he
31:28have a home to come
31:29back to,
31:29but he was right
31:31back on the big stage.
31:36His popularity grew
31:37while he was gone.
31:38Like,
31:38there was no forgetting
31:39about Nick Gage.
31:41Fans were writing me
31:41for seven years
31:42I was locked up
31:43to keep your head up,
31:44so I wanted to come out
31:45and,
31:46you know,
31:47my gang be together,
31:48man,
31:48so I came up
31:49with the Murder,
31:49Death, Kill gang.
31:52Murder, Death, Kill gang,
31:54that is my fans.
31:56It means something
31:56to my heart,
31:57you know what I'm saying?
31:58I didn't realize
32:02how popular I was.
32:03Man,
32:04there's MDK everywhere,
32:05man.
32:06It's like MDK
32:07f***ing Australia,
32:08MDK Europe,
32:09MDK,
32:10man,
32:10whole 50 state MDK,
32:12MDK,
32:14MDK.
32:17While the MDK gang
32:19continues to grow
32:20worldwide,
32:21Bret is arranging
32:22one of the most
32:23bizarre death matches
32:24in wrestling history.
32:26How did this match
32:27with David Arquette
32:27come about?
32:28Oh,
32:28the match with David Arquette,
32:29I knew you were
32:30going to answer this one.
32:31I'm David Arquette,
32:40former WCW champion.
32:43You can't take that
32:43away from me.
32:44I'm sorry.
32:45Arquette pairs off
32:46with Bischoff
32:47in the ring.
32:48During WCW's decline
32:50in the year 2000,
32:51while promoting the movie
32:53Ready to Rumble,
32:54David Arquette won
32:55the heavyweight championship
32:56in a moment that will
32:58forever live
32:58in wrestling infamy.
33:00He's over towards
33:01Arquette.
33:01One, two, three.
33:02What started as
33:06a raiding stunt
33:07would cause wrestling fans
33:09to hold a grudge
33:10against Arquette
33:11for nearly two decades.
33:13Guess what the world
33:14has a pick here,
33:15believe it.
33:15They want to get
33:16it at the worst night.
33:18Most of the audience
33:19hated it.
33:20They really thought
33:21it was disrespectful
33:22to the belt.
33:24Wrestling was something
33:26that was unfinished
33:27for me.
33:28A true wrestling fan
33:29at heart,
33:30Arquette was determined
33:31to earn the respect
33:32of fans
33:33and spent years
33:34preparing for his
33:35return to the ring.
33:37When I came back,
33:38they said,
33:38you want to wrestle
33:40Nick Gage
33:40and I didn't know
33:41who Nick Gage was.
33:43And I looked him up
33:44and I thought,
33:45this is kind of
33:46the perfect place
33:47to prove at least
33:48that I'm tough enough.
33:49I just didn't really
33:50want to be a joke
33:51anymore.
33:52Arquette made it clear
33:53that not only was he
33:54down to wrestle Nick,
33:54he was down to have
33:56a death match.
33:56Are you sure
33:57he wants to do
33:58a death match?
33:59Does he know
34:00what it is?
34:01And he said,
34:02yeah.
34:03So I said,
34:04all right.
34:04So we went out
34:05to L.A.
34:05the day before
34:06the show.
34:07We went out,
34:08all had steaks
34:09on Arquette.
34:10We met at
34:11Musso and Frank's.
34:12I'm from Los Angeles,
34:14so I wanted
34:14a proper lunch
34:15at the oldest
34:16restaurant in Hollywood.
34:18I said,
34:19listen,
34:19this shit is not fake.
34:21This shit is real.
34:22That glass is real.
34:23You're going to bleed.
34:24Are you sure
34:25you want to do this?
34:26I knew it was real glass.
34:28I knew it was dangerous.
34:30I'm crazier
34:30than the next person.
34:32So I was into it.
34:33But I clearly said
34:34at that steak dinner,
34:35don't cut me.
34:37I'm an actor,
34:37so don't cut me.
34:39I know I'll bleed,
34:40but don't cut me.
34:41So I was like,
34:41all right,
34:42no problem, man.
34:43But you got to know,
34:44man,
34:44this is what I do,
34:46okay?
34:47And I'm not going
34:47to go soft on you.
34:49My other guys
34:49are nervous
34:50because it's David Arquette
34:51and he's a f***ing actor.
34:53I'm just thinking,
34:53like,
34:54I'm going to
34:54whoop his ass.
34:57From Hollywood,
34:59California,
35:01to him,
35:05Arquette!
35:13F***!
35:14F*** that shit!
35:15You know,
35:19I was supposed to
35:19hit him a couple times,
35:21like, badly.
35:24Oh, my God.
35:28And then he was like,
35:29then I'll hit you for real.
35:32Oh, my God.
35:34He just snuffed
35:35David Arquette.
35:36This is supposed to be
35:37a go all out,
35:38like him f***ing freaking out,
35:40knocking me to the outside
35:41and just diving
35:42through the ropes.
35:43Beautiful.
35:44Oh, that shit's him, man.
35:45That wasn't no f***ing
35:46playing out shit.
35:48This guy's willing
35:48to do anything.
35:50Holy shit!
35:51He started, like,
35:52laying in a little
35:53and I'm like,
35:54you know what?
35:54I'm about to take it
35:55to the next level.
35:57Oh, no, Gage!
36:00Shotcaller!
36:01Nick Gage!
36:02Going for blood!
36:04Oh, no!
36:05Oh, my God!
36:06Pizza cutter!
36:07Demanding the audience
36:09film this!
36:09There was a pizza cutter
36:11involved.
36:12I was like,
36:12you won't even feel.
36:13And I was like,
36:14this f***ing asshole.
36:15What the f***
36:16are you doing,
36:17Nick Gage?
36:18But I'm like,
36:19I'm feeling like
36:20my f***ing foreheads
36:21cut clean open.
36:23They put it in my mouth, too.
36:25Nick Gage, no!
36:27At this point,
36:28I'm not having the trust
36:29that you need
36:30in a wrestling ring.
36:31So, kind of like,
36:32building up
36:33to being f***ing pissed.
36:34David Arquette
36:36probably thinking
36:37about his spa,
36:39his private
36:39air-conditioned garage.
36:41I got a f***ing piece
36:42of a f***ing light tube,
36:43right?
36:44I smashed it
36:45over its head.
36:47Oh!
36:47He's starting
36:48to bug out a little bit.
36:49Oh, my God!
36:50No, no, no!
36:51He stabbed him
36:52in his neck.
36:53I was like,
36:53oh, s***,
36:54did I just kill
36:54David Arquette?
36:55Everybody's just like,
37:04oh, s***,
37:05we're gonna watch
37:06the guy die.
37:07Arquette trying
37:07to keep the blood in it
37:08looks like,
37:09holy s***!
37:10I've been doing this
37:11so long
37:11that I looked at his neck
37:12and there was nothing squirt
37:13and he was fine.
37:14He had a little bit
37:15of a cut and a leak.
37:16And I was like,
37:16oh, he's all right.
37:17Let's f***ing keep going.
37:20When Arquette
37:21threw that chair,
37:22I was thinking,
37:22like, he just f***ed up
37:23and Nick's about
37:24to beat the s*** out
37:25of David Arquette
37:25for real.
37:28I hit him
37:28with a judo thrill
37:29and I sat him down
37:31and I said,
37:31stay down
37:32or I'm gonna f***ing
37:33hurt you.
37:33Here we go!
37:37Gage!
37:37Gage just got him!
37:42Holy s***!
37:43He did good, man,
37:44until he started
37:45being a f***ing crybaby.
37:46He ran in the f***ing
37:47Luke Perry's car
37:48and got out of there
37:49and I haven't talked
37:49to him since.
37:50How were you feeling
37:51after the fight yesterday?
37:53Interesting.
37:54You look in pretty good shape.
37:56Thank you.
37:56The next day,
37:57they got me a TMZ
37:58and I was still pissed
38:00because things went
38:02out of control.
38:03I was in over my head.
38:05I shouldn't have been there
38:05in the first place.
38:07But until you're in
38:08a death match,
38:08you don't know
38:09what a crazy death match is.
38:11He's the leader
38:11of the MBK gang!
38:14Nick's gruesome win
38:15over Arquette
38:16went viral,
38:17becoming one of the most
38:18talked about events
38:19in wrestling that year.
38:20As Nick travels the country,
38:23his diehard fan base
38:24continues to grow
38:26and his personal
38:27and professional life
38:28were finally trending
38:29in the right direction
38:30until tragedy struck again
38:33on a cold January morning.
38:35When we found out
38:41about his brother,
38:43he was actually leaving
38:44to go somewhere.
38:46I forget where it was.
38:47And he called me up.
38:48He was very, like,
38:50frantic on the phone.
38:51I'm like,
38:51what are you,
38:51what's going on?
38:52I was heading into work
38:53and he told me
38:54and I'm like,
38:55what do you mean?
38:56Hey, listen,
39:10I'm going to tell you
39:10the truth.
39:11I swear to God,
39:12I didn't feel like wrestling.
39:13I didn't feel like coming here,
39:15doing this shit,
39:15talking to people.
39:16I didn't feel like doing it.
39:18When I got here,
39:20I got in front of
39:21all you crazy bull****s.
39:23I swear to God,
39:24that made me forget
39:25about the situation
39:26and it made me forget
39:27about what my brother
39:28did to himself.
39:29So I want to say
39:30thank you to you people.
39:39My brother jumped
39:40off the bridge,
39:42the Walt Whitman bridge,
39:43if you guys ain't familiar
39:44with that bridge.
39:48You know,
39:49he just left a note
39:50saying sorry.
39:51That's it.
39:54My understanding
39:55is he stole a car
39:56and the cops
39:57threw the lights on
39:59and before they could
40:00get to him,
40:00he ran and jumped off.
40:02That was it.
40:04Just,
40:05it's really upsetting
40:06because Chris
40:07always had his stuff to him.
40:09Like,
40:09he had the car,
40:10he had the wife,
40:11he had the kids,
40:12he had the job.
40:13I've known Chris
40:14for so many years,
40:14I never thought Chris
40:16would have done that.
40:16It was,
40:17it was shocking,
40:19actually.
40:19For years,
40:22Nick was the one
40:23who was in trouble
40:24and then as the years
40:26progressed,
40:26they totally flipped positions.
40:28There was serious
40:29mental health issues,
40:31serious substance abuse
40:32problems,
40:33to the point of
40:35the family leaving.
40:38And Nick would
40:38tell me crazy things.
40:41He would be insisting
40:42that there was somebody
40:42coming for him,
40:43the cops are coming,
40:44the FBI is coming,
40:45and serious shit like that.
40:47That was the first time
40:48that I had ever
40:49really felt that,
40:50you know,
40:51sensed that kind of emotion
40:52and feelings from Nick
40:53that like,
40:54this really did affect him,
40:55you know?
40:56Yeah,
40:56I think deep down
40:57and in reality,
40:58probably some regret.
41:03The bridge he jumped off of
41:05is behind my house.
41:07So as soon as I come
41:08out of my house,
41:09I see the bridge every day
41:10that my brother's
41:11jumped off of.
41:12So I kind of say
41:13a prayer for him,
41:14just ask,
41:14you know,
41:14what's up Chris
41:15and shit like that.
41:16Just like,
41:18damn, man,
41:18everybody that you
41:20grew up with
41:21in your household
41:22is gone
41:22and it's just
41:23you rocking it.
41:25I'm just gonna
41:25keep moving forward,
41:26man,
41:26make them proud.
41:28It's the only thing
41:28I can do.
41:30Do you think that
41:31Nick's story
41:32is one of redemption?
41:34Who's to say
41:35what redemption is?
41:36Like,
41:36what's the finish line
41:37for Nick Gage?
41:38When is this
41:39all a success?
41:40I mean,
41:40you could say right now
41:41it's a success,
41:42but I mean,
41:44he's got to finish it out
41:46now for the rest
41:46of his life.
41:47In the traditional sense,
41:49I mean,
41:49you know,
41:49in the traditional
41:50addict sense,
41:51like,
41:51every day is like
41:52a battle,
41:53you know?
41:53And some people
41:54aren't always up
41:55for that battle
41:56every single day.
42:01Time's ticking,
42:02you know?
42:03I already know
42:06in my mind
42:07that I'm gonna
42:07go out young.
42:10Do I have a death wish
42:11or not like that?
42:12No.
42:13But I feel like
42:14I'm gonna die
42:14sooner than later.
42:16I believe that.
42:19But you're cool with that?
42:20Yeah, yeah,
42:21I'm definitely cool
42:21with that, man.
42:22You know?
42:24Just,
42:24I'd rather die
42:25a good way
42:26than a bad way,
42:27you know what I mean?
42:27Right.
42:28Yeah.
42:33But I'll tell you what,
42:36I'm 40 years old
42:37and I'm still
42:37going f***ing hard, man.
42:45He's not gonna stop
42:46and I'm not saying
42:47he should
42:48because he's got
42:49the number one
42:50talent you need.
42:51It's not biceps,
42:52it's not abs,
42:53it's the ability
42:53to connect.
42:55Vince McMahon
42:56would f***ing kill
42:57to have one person
42:59with that connection
43:00with the audience
43:01that Nick Gage has.
43:02I kind of think
43:03his story's
43:03just kind of
43:04getting started.
43:05If I didn't have him,
43:06I don't know
43:07where I would be
43:07right now.
43:08I really do not know.
43:10He is my everything.
43:11He really, really is.
43:12He's my best friend,
43:13so he gets on my nerves,
43:14don't get me wrong,
43:15but he's,
43:16he's all right.
43:17He's an all right guy,
43:18I'll tell you that much.
43:18He's all right.
43:20And he's gonna keep going,
43:21he's gonna keep going
43:22until I guess,
43:23until he turns like 60,
43:24maybe he can't go anymore,
43:25I don't know.
43:26But,
43:27he's all right.
43:30Them fans
43:31are f***ing awesome, man.
43:33And I think I represent
43:34for like some of them
43:35people out there
43:36who's gotten in trouble,
43:37who went through
43:38some things
43:39and then trying
43:40to bounce back.
43:41Well, look at Gage,
43:42he bounced back like that.
43:43All that s***
43:44keeps me going.
43:46And I'm f***ing proud of it.
43:48And that's the MDK gang, man.
43:50This is for his brother,
43:52Nick Gage
43:53with the pain thriller.
43:55One,
43:55two,
43:56three.
43:57One,
43:58two,
44:06three.
