My GWF was decent in PvP from level 10-39. I was able to kill and constantly put pressure on other players. I was having fun. I get to level 40 PvP and it all changed. I am cc'd so much that I can't get any closer than 30 feet away from target. If a CW and a HR are on me, I lose complete control over my toon until I die. Am I out geared? Is this just the fate I will have as a GWF against certain classes? The only time I feel in complete control of my toon is with Unstoppable up.

No, there are some debuffs and ccs that Unstoppable will not counter.
But otherwise yes, the gwf is a sacrificial lamb in pvp. When you see posts about "gwf king of pvp" it always refers to a certain type of gwf with a certain type of equipment. The regular gwf is not especially good in pvp.
With this said, at level 40 you are also at the wrong end of the 40-49 bracket, which does not help
