abstract
| - Xtreme Wrestling Alliance (XWA) is an international professional wrestling promotion founded by British professional wrestling booker and entrepreneur Gregor Magnum and a partner in October of 2005. The partner would split up with and sell his shares to Allen a year later. The current majority share owner in XWA is Allen. The company, which trades as XWA Wrestling, CORP., operates out of an area that has come to being known as XWAville, with shows being held at a different country each month as part of XWA's global image. Upon its formation, XWA proved to being one of the main wrestling promotions on the planet, with the company's World Title regarded as one of the most prestigious championships in wrestling history. In later years, XWA would develop the Cruiserweight, Xtreme, Pure, and Tag Team titles as well. Currently, the XWA Openweight and Cruiserweight Titles are vacated, with the Xtreme Title being re-activated at the Supremacy PPV on March 9th, 2008 and the Pure Title being re-activated at Gateway To Glory III PPV on May 18th 2008. Later that year, XWA gained acquisition of COMBAT, a Canada-based wrestling promotion that gained fame as a result of XWA Superstar Genesius Annaya being its initial COMBAT World Heavyweight Champion. XWA formerly promoted 2 brands: Collision and the newly acquired Combat. XWA later scrapped COMBAT in favor of running a single show as a more effective and streamlined show. XWA suffered several internal business issues in April of 2010 and as a result a major shake up of employees and active roster members occurred. The following month XWA returned to action and held their return television show on June 9th 2010.
