TKO Wrestling (TKO) is a backyard wrestling federation which is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and was opened in 2009.
Haze, Radar, and Armani were responsible for the federation starting off.
History
Originally, members of TKO Wrestling performed wrestling within the bedroom of an indoor home with names such as Five Iron Knight (Haze), Radar and Armani. After viewing several videos from the federations, Alpha Semi Pro Wrestling, In Your House Wrestling Alliance and 2KW, an agreement was settled on constructing a ring. On July 18, 2009, they held their first event titled after TNA pay per view, Slammiversary, noted for where Radar became the first TKO Champion. TKO also claims that their first events were not so successful, but improved and that they were contacted by ASPW.
On August 8 at TKO Extreme Consequences, ASPW wrestlers began appearing at TKO events and henceforth. At the show, Jeff James defeat Nick Cain in a 3 Stages of Hell match, Haze won the TKO Title from Radar in a Hardcore match, and in Survival of the Sickest (A Rumble-based match with entries following a timely interval and falls decided by pinfall or submission), Snakes Eyes won the match to be given a briefcase entitling him to a championship match for a championship at any given time.
On August 22 at As Daylight Dies, the first supershow was held. Haze defeated Nick Cain in the inaugural interpromotional match. Debuts henceforth included RJ Marks, Thomas Young and The Reaper as well as more.
