Taylor Gibson (born June 7, 1990), better known by the ring name Effy, is an American professional wrestler. He currently works for Game Changer Wrestling (GCW), where he is a former GCW World Champion and GCW Tag Team Champion with Allie Katch. He also promotes the GCW-branded Effy's Big Gay Brunch events, focused on LGBTQ wrestlers in the American independent scene.
Taylor Gibson was raised in a very religious environment; two of his grandparents were preachers. Gibson is openly gay and is known for his support of the LGBTQ community. He has stated that his sexual orientation has cost him several bookings.
On August 30, 2019, Effy faced Nick Gage for the GCW World Championship in a Deathmatch. Despite losing the match, he would become a regular performer for the Game Changer Wrestling promotion. On October 2, 2021, Effy defeated Matt Cardona to win the Internet Championship.
On October 10, 2020, Gibson hosted Effy's Big Gay Brunch, the first of a series of shows featuring LGBTQ performers and allies. On April 10, 2021, he hosted Effy's Big Gay Brunch 2.
On April 9, 2022, at Paranoid, Effy and Allie Katch won the GCW Tag Team Championship. On July 29, at The People vs. GCW, they lost the titles to Los Mazicos (Ciclope and Miedo Extremo) in a five-way WarGames match.
Gibson described the Effy character as an over-the-top version of himself. Since he began to work in a religious and Republican part of the United States, he performed the "most gay version of myself" to get heat. He is nicknamed "The Weapon of Sass Destruction".
