Extreme World Wrestling

History

Extreme World Wrestling's debut show was known as "The Declaration", and took place on 11 December 1998 at the Exeter Hall in Kiddlington Oxfordshire. The entire show would feature an eight-man single-night tournament to crown the inaugural EWW British Heavyweight Champion (later renamed the EWW 'World' Heavyweight Championship). The culmination of the tournament featured a steel cage match for the first time on British soil. Fighting Spirit defeated The Dominator to become inaugural champion. The Dominator would go on to become the most well-known wrestler on the EWW roster, which would also include 'The Dead Souls' consisting of Pain, Pleasure, The Dominator & The Spirit of Instinct. Newer members would be inducted during future shows, such as Alex Shane, Frankie Capone, Jonny Storm, The Flatliner & The New Breed. The Dead Souls would eventually feud with then EWW Commissioner and representative of the company, Malcolm Martin. Martin was a big hit with the fans at the time. EWW would go on to sell out 3 shows in the year of 1999 with "Storm Rising", "Revelations" and "Scorched Earth". During this time, it gained the reputation as not only being the number one hardcore promotion in the UK, but were also given the slogan of "The Innovators of Violence". In 2000, EWW set up a training school known as the CPA (Combat Performance Academy) which consisted of martial arts, psychology and wrestling training. In 2001, EWW returned to the UK scene with the show "Castled", which took place on 22 September 2001 at the Castle Leisure Centre in Wallingford Oxfordshire. It featured a mighty card, including former ECW star Nova, taking on Francisco Capone in the Steel Cage match main event.

The Return

After the success of "Castled" in 2001, EWW went dormant for two years for unknown reasons, however, the company would return on 14 May 2004 at the Palace Nightclub in Witney Oxfordshire for a show titled "Resurrection" show. Under new guidance with the "Extreme Enforcer" Chris O’Regan and The Dominator, EWW came back with a bang and put everybody on notice that they were reclaiming their spot as the number one promotion in the United Kingdom. The Palace Nightclub would go on to become the venue for EWW year in, year out. Somebody once quoted it as, "The EWW Arena". It would also be due to the return of EWW where one of its most famous feuds in the history of the company was about to be born. The New Breed (Ashe and Curve) were friends for many years and were one of the premier tag teams on the British wrestling scene. However, after turning his back on his former best friend, Curve caused Ashe to lose the EWW Championship. He re-established himself under his real name, Phil Bedwell and became "The Playboy". Bedwell and Ashe would go on to face each other three times at "Rage", "Cruel Britannia" and "Requiem" in some of the bloodiest, violent and most corrupt matches in Britain. Phil Bedwell would also go on to become EWW's first ever St. George's Champion, beating Jonny Storm in a gauntlet match at "Cruel Britannia 2". As well as famous feuds, famous faces would go on to debut for EWW, with the likes of Joe Legend, Barbarian Karl Krammer, Marty Scurll, The UK Pitbulls and many others. EWW's first graduate of the CPA Training School and hometown hero, Psycho Silvera, made his debut for the promotion and proved a big hit with the fans. EWW's last outing at the Palace Nightclub would be on June 26, 2007 at "Cruel Britannia 2". In this match, Silvera teamed up with his mentor, The Dominator, to take on LDN's tag team of Gideon and Jekyll. Silvera and The Dominator were scheduled to face each other in a future title fight and exchanged in a bitter rivalry. However, EWW had been in a feud with LDN since 2006 and agreed to put all problems aside. At the culmination of the show, ‘Big D’ turned on his partner and proceeded to join LDN wrestling, sending the local Witney fans home in shock.

The Revamp

After a year's absence, EWW returned to the UK scene again in 2009 but this time under a new name. Extreme World Wrestling was born and the "Night of Destruction" event took place at the Kings Hall in Herne Bay on March 13. "Night of Destruction" had a line up of Phil Bedwell taking on Ashe in an Extreme Warfare match for the EWW St George's Title, The Dominator defending his World Heavyweight Title against Phil Powers and the debut of future British Women's Champion, Skarlett. EWW was a massive hit. EWW would go on to expand as a company, going on tour to places such as Coventry, Hastings, Liverpool and Warrington. After returning to the Kings Hall on October 23, old school legend Kerry Cabrero defeated The Dominator after a six-year undefeated streak to become the new EWW World Heavyweight Champion. Thus began one of the most famous, bloody and violent feuds ever seen in the history of the promotion. After a sly win in a rematch at "Battle of Britain 2" in March 2010, The British Beast and Cabrero were informed by now EWW Commissioner and MC, Jay Curd, that they were to face off in a Last Man Standing match at the Phoenix Venue in Hastings on September 25. After another encounter, The Dominator regained the championship for the 3rd time in his career. Extreme World Wrestling would also go on to introduce the first ever inter-gender tag team, Casket Match, at "The Darkest Hour" event on November 26 back at the Kings Hall. "The Darkest Hour" saw The Dominator and Skarlett put both the World Title and British Women's Title on the line against Becky James and Kerry Cabrero. The champions retained their respective titles, stuffing both of their longtime enemies inside the casket. Jay "J-Dawg" Curd also reintroduced the St. George's Championship at this event after a few months absence, pitting newcomer B-Rey against inaugural St. George's title holder, 'Playboy' Phil Bedwell. B-Rey outshone the veteran and claimed the championship. "Lethal" Lucy Clayden also defeated Rhia O'Reilly and Pollyanna to become the number one contender to the British Women's Championship at a future event in 2011. Charlie Rage defeated "The Modern Messiah" Stockwell to earn a World Heavyweight Title shot at any time in 2011.
