History.
The PWA was established in March 2001 by Kurt Sorochan, Tex Gaines, and Hercules Ayala. Their first shows were outside of Edmonton due to the difficulty of getting a promoter's license. Their first show in Edmonton drew over 700 people.
In 2003, they put on monthly events, which got mostly good reviews. The following year in 2004, however, they put on fewer shows due to scheduling conflicts. The company relaunched its shows in October 2004 with Night of Champions.
The PWA currently runs shows monthly in Edmonton, AB at the Northgate Lions Senior Recreation Center &amp; Calgary, AB at the Century Casino. On January 20, 2014, the PWA announced that they would start running shows in Red Deer, AB on May 22, 2014. On May 31, 2014, the PWA ran its first show in Lloydminster Sask/Ab.
The PWA closed down in 2022.
