Debut	2001
Promotion	2KW

The Elite is a backyard wrestling heel stable in 2KW which consists of leader Kris Kage, SyNN, William Black, Joe Bullrog, Whiplash and Statik, and is usually accompanied by ToXXSyNN who manages SyNN. The group was originally birthed in 2001 during 2KW's alliance with the GWA federation.

There have been different versions of the stable since its original incarnation. The Elite currently focuses on the empowerment of holding all championships as the "Elite Gold Edition". Their gimmick is that of a wrecking crew persisting to assert their presence, dominance and achievements.

History

Original Elite

In 2001 during the parnership of 2KW (then known fully at 2000 Wrestling) with Ghetto Wrestling Alliance, a formation between J.S.A as the GWA/2KW World Champion, SyNN as the GWA/2KW Television Champion and Vinny Mac took place which became known as The Elite and kept to a trio movement. Following the split of the GWA and 2KW united world titles, William Black prevailed in a Battle Royal for the 2KW Championship and joined the group. By the end of the year, Elite feuded with Speed Demon and 2KW Intercontinental Champion WASP, who subsequently betrayed his partner and became the final member of the original Elite group.

Domination (2007)

Much subsequently due to limited information, on the March 10, 2007 edition of 2KW, Check was involved in a TV Title Tournament and challenged Grifter, accompanied by SyNN in The Elite, during a round one match. Down to the last moments of the bout, Grifter countered a chokeslam attempt by Check shoving him to the floor and incoherently receiving a pinfall victory. It was then unveiled after Check stood up gleefully embracing Grifter that he aligned with the group.

Within the villainous Elite, Synn was the silent out-of-control bully that needed restraint, Grifter was the mouthpiece, and Check was the third member that added to their presence. Also at the same event, The Elite heightened their upstart by executing reckless acts of brutality featured during SyNN's first "Open Challenge" or anything goes hardcore bout which prominently began with Saylo. The vile onslaught would involve light tubes, chairs, and a cinnapore cane. Physical assaults included what became the group's signature attack, a collaborative vicious running kick to the head, Grifter's One Sick Ass Clothesline (OSAC), Synn's swinging trech coat as well as signature powerbomb manuever dubbed SyNNDrome. Their dominance was carried on during Dubb C's spotlight segment beating down LESW owner Chris Torres and Joey "Doomsday" Resto, who stepped up belligerently to help Torres against The Elite but was ultimately assaulted, Synndromed into a spot of fire and almost set on fire which resulted in one of the craziest moments of the year.

Grifter proceeded to lose in the semi-finals of the TV Title Tournament to V.i.P. The Elite also made a name from their political screwjobs to other wrestlers usually while officiating each others matches or interfering to give the assist. A feud started when he accused Jamal Jackson of humilating him during an appearance outside 2KW and during 2KW commentary that he took offense to as the one that "runs the show", which became conspicuous through Jackson's blatant sarcasm and fuelled Grifter's insanity leading to a short feud between the two. Grifter and Check ended up defeating Doomsday and Jamal Jackson in a tag team match on the April 14 tapings. Elite kept themselves relevant savaging Scythe in another Synn "Open Challenge". Check around this time, was rewarded a supposedly vacated European Title by Grifter after defeating previous champion, Ex-Con.

Quite soon, The Elite decreased their extreme hardcore antics but continued to physically devastate. In the summer of 2007, Check lost the European Title to Whiplash and went on to defeat Mike Goldston for the 2KW Title. In September, while defending champion Check faced Raze, William Black made an interference halting a slow count by the referee and delivering an F5 on Raze, essentially assisting Check to retaining the title but also joining The Elite which exceptionally did not go well with Check. The referee was also revealed to be in on the officiating and mistakenly thought to be apart of the group. Check proceeded to have a remarkable hardcore bout with Saylo which also saw him retain his title, but soon lost it to Raze. Moreover, Check's problems within The Elite continued to grow against an arrogant Black and Grifter and the status of the group before 2007 closed out.

Reshaping of The Elite (2008-present)

In March, it became apparent in the 2008 season premiere that Check dissociated with The Elite and in turn, became a fan favorite. Grifter had coined his new catchphrase of calling the crowd and adversaries "Faggots" and started conflict with C-Red over his fluctuating status while William Black, after placing an open challenge due to being upset over his procrastinated 2KW World Title match against an injured Raze, entered a hardcore rivalry with FNB of Team Stiff who answered the challenge that resulted in a hellacious outcome. The Elite claimed that C-Red, Check, Scythe, and FNB all wanted to be them and declared they would convey why they were the true Elite.
