** Lee Cahalane's FaceHeelTurn that made him the BadBoss of The Establishment unfortunately ended up being prescient of real life.
** Katey Harvey's final match for the promotion had her being buried by being quickly pinned in a triple threat elimination against Jinny. Given how outspoken she's been about the mistreatment in the promotion, it looks like retaliation for speaking out.
* HeartwarmingInHindsight: Aoife Valkyrie and Michael May made their CCW debuts (and it was the former's in-ring debut) in the same match together. A few years later, they'd both debut for NXT UK.

** Bingo Ballance attracted considerable buzz in the promotion's early days through sheer respect for his in-ring work and [[NiceGuy general likeability]]. It was no surprise that he ended up becoming the first CCW Heavyweight Champion.
** Omega appeared exclusively as a heel but got babyface reactions, so he had a HeelFaceTurn and eventually became CCW All-Star Champion.
** The Fabulous Nicky likewise wrestled as a heel for most other promotions in Ireland, but CCW fans found his CampGay antics endearing and he was turned face too.
** Siren only appeared as a ring announcer and backstage interviewer on early shows. When she was chosen as a special guest referee for a Katey Harvey vs Kazza G match, the crowd erupted in chants for her. This led to her stepping into the ring against Katey eventually.
** Debbie Keitel has quite a big social media following and gets great reactions from fans despite being quite new to wrestling.
