Godzina Zero (Zero Hour) 2025 was the eighth annual KPW supershow, held since 2016. Like most previous editions, GZ'25 was be held in August, and returned to Nowy Harem after the last year's edition took place at a gym hall at Stefana Okrzei 6 street.

Build-up

• At Arena 29 Zefir defeated Veit Müller, earning a title shot for the KPW Championship at Godzina Zero 2025.
• Likewise, at the same show, Leon Lato earned his title shot for the KPW OldTown Championship by defeating Tomczak.
• On 18.07.2025 KPW released a video in which a group of 13 rookies addressed chairman Malinowski, stating they're fed up with being bullied by Tomczak and demanding a match against him. The group included Adam Wong, the rookie manhandled by Tomczak at Arena 29, and three women, hinting at the first match to include female talent in five years.
• On 23.07.2025 Krystian Malinowski replied, saying that the idea of rookies facing Tomczak is so absurd he's willing to agree. However, he stated that only three of the "rebels" will get to do the honours and that the lucky ones will be decided in a battle royal to be held "in a moment".
• Two days later KPW posted a video of the battle royal, with the three winners being congratulated - but also warned - by Krystian Malinowski.
• On 2.08.2025 Chemik vs Lato for the KPW OldTown Championship was officially confirmed.
• The next day KPW confirmed the match between Bracia Fux (Filip Fux & Michał Fux) and Team Visegrad (Ricky Sky & David Oliwa) for the KPW Tag Team Championship. This match was brought about by a situation at Pyrkon 2025, where Team Visegrad attacked Filip and Michał after the brothers won their bout against Chemik and Hans Schulte.
• The main event - Hans Schulte vs Zefir for the KPW Championship - was officially confirmed on 11.08.2025.
• The Handicap Match between Tomczak and three as-yet unnamed rookies was confirmed two days later.
• On 15.08.2025 KPW announced Eryk Lesak vs Crowchester, who was last seen at Arena 17.
• On 18.08.2025 Greg vs Lukáš Mottl was announced. Mottl made his KPW debut at Pyrkon earlier that year, but this will be his first mainline KPW show. Previously, he'd made a number of appearances (as Skull Evil) for Maniac Zone Wrestling and one for PpW Ewenement Wrestling.
• The following day saw the announcement of debutant Markus Paskal, a graduate of the KPW Academy, vs Veit Müller.
• Lastly, on 20.08.2025, KPW announced a 13-Man Championship Contract Battle Royal. This replaces the Magnificent Seven Ladder Match, a staple of most Godzina Zero shows held in previous years.
• On the day before the show, KPW released a video in which David Oliwa addressed Filip & Michał Fux, stating that because they took away his chance at the KPW Championship at Arena 27, he will now take what's most important to them: their KPW Tag Team Championships. Ricky Sky then added (in Slovak) that it won't be just their titles, but also their fans, their joy and their name: they'll no longer be (in English) "Fux Brothers", but rather (in Polish) "Shit Brothers" (Nebudú to Fux Brothers - budú Gówno Brothers).

Highlights

• Michał Fux sustained an injury during the match, which forced him to leave Filip Fux to fend for himself for a long while. Later in the match, he came back with a bandaged left hand to aid his brother in the fight.
• When Michał pinned Ricky Sky, Lukáš Mottl came out of the backstage and placed Ricky's leg on the bottom rope, forcing a rope break. The local crowd, unfamiliar with the character (though he did appear earlier that year at Pyrkon), chanted "Kim ty jesteś" (Who are you?).
• After winning the second match, Veit Müller extended his hand to Markus Paskal and hugged him, only to then deliver a surprise attack.
• Present in the audience were Markus Paskal's mother and friends, who prepared a large banner to cheer him on. After the fight, Paskal cut a brief promo thanking the fans for giving him a chance to prove himself and apologising for wasting that chance. He ended by thanking his mother, prompting the crowd to chant "Mum!"
• Upon entering the ring, Eryk Lesak insulted and tore down Paskal's banner.
• Crowchester came out to heel heat, unlike during his previous appearance at Arena 17. During the course of the match, however, he managed to get the audience on his side.
• The fight between Chemik and Leon Lato briefly moved out of the ring and near the merch stand. Leon took the opportunity to grab a handful of Chemik's postcards and whack him on the head with them, before giving the cards to the fans. The postcards depict Chemik replacing Jakub Wejher on a statue located in Wejherowo's historical market square.
• The three rookies facing Tomczak weren't given individual introductions or names. The crowd quickly took to calling them "Rookie One", "Rookie Two" and "Rookie Three" (Adept Jeden, Adept Dwa and Adept Trzy), numbering them after the order in which they went against Tomczak.
• Before the match started, Krystian Malinowski came out and cut a brief promo berating the rookies for rebelling against Tomczak, which in Malinowski's eyes means rebelling against himself and KPW. He then told Tomczak to teach the rookies a lesson they wouldn't forget.
• Lukáš Mottl tried cheating by removing the padding from a turnbuckle, only to hit it head-first himself.
• The elimination order during the Battle Royal was as follows:
  1. Crowchester
  2. Tomczak
  3. Leon Lato
  4. Chemik
  5. Greg
  6. Ricky Sky
  7. Filip Fux
  8. Lukáš Mottl
  9. Michał Fux
  10. Veit Müller
  11. Eryk Lesak (see explanation below)
  12. Leon Lato (see explanation below)
  13. David Oliwa
  14. Markus Paskal
• After his elimination, Tomczak returned to the ring and threw Leon Lato out; the referee declared Leon's elimination null and void, and Lato soon returned to the ring to continue the match.
• After being thrown out and landing next to some fans, Ricky Sky untied their shoelaces.
• At one point near the end of the match Eryk Lesak landed outside the ring. He was not declared eliminated by ring announcer Kinga, however, suggesting he didn't go over the top rope. As Markus Paskal was celebrating his apparent victory, Lesak came back to the ring and threw him out, winning the Battle Royal himself.
• Some of the eliminated wrestlers were offered beer by Istotna Martynka from Istota Wrestlingu podcast, sitting in the front row.
• Prior to the main event, Krystian Malinowski came out again and cut a long promo in which he claimed to have received an anonymous letter in the mail. The sender threatened him, insitsting that he leaves Zefir and Rosetti alone, lest he bitterly regrets it. Malinowski stated that, although he didn't know who wrote it, he suspected it was Zefir, whom he then called a disease to which he himself was the cure. The Chairman also made a callback to Arena 29, saying he doesn't care if the letter was written by Zefir, Rosetti, Greg, Kamil Aleksander or Triple H. Finally, he said he'd find and destroy the person responsible even if he had to enter a pact with "reptile people, reptilians, the Masons, or the Devil himself" (to which a couple of fans responded "with PTW!" and "with Pawłowski!").
• Zefir faced some technical issues during his entrance, as his fire-breathing mixture wouldn't ignite until the third attempt.
• Zefir came out with a Polish flag. Hans Schulte later used it to blow his nose and floss his posterior, to great audience heat.
• After winning the match and the Championship, Zefir gestured for a microphone and spoke for the very first time: "Hej Gdynia, zrobiłem to!" (Hey Gdynia, I did it!).
