History
Beginning (2008-2010)
The history of the federation can be considered to have started on November 29, 2008, when Skull Jr. of Total Hardcore Wrestling and RPK of Hardcore Championship Wrestling faced eachother to determine the first GBYWN Michigan Heavyweight Champion. RPK won. This match pioneered inter-promotional activity for HCW and Skull wrestled three more matches in conjunction with them on January 10 and August 22, 2009 (he was to become a full-time roster member on September 16, but the plan never came into fruition). Karnage is a wrestler who wrestled for the federation Twiztid Backyard Wrestling (TBW) which had closed. He saw HCW's videos on YouTube and was interested in joining. He made his debut for HCW on July 30, 2009 at their "Affliction" supercard, where he lost to RPK. Unlike Skull, Karnage became a full-time roster member after the event. After September 2009, HCW started scheduling events sporadically and went into a hiatus after their event on June 1, 2010. Both Karnage and Skull wrote storylines in case HCW was to return but that also was unable to happen. Skull was scheduling a supershow for September 5, and Karnage confirmed his appearance. After many wrestlers had to drop out of the event (notably The Pen Name, who was scheduled to defend the NBYWA World Heavyweight Championship), it was down to these two. Skull and Karnage had talked over founding a new fed if HCW didn't return or if the supershow wasn't a success before the event. HCW eventually announced closure on October 21. On September 5, Karnage had to drop out because his mother was in the hospital, leaving Skull the victor of the match by forfeit and thereby making him the new NBYWA World Heavyweight Champion and new NBYWA International Heavyweight Champion. It was also a successful defense of his THW World Heavyweight Championship. A rematch was scheduled, with Karnage as the #1 contender, for the week afterward but that was abandoned in favor of starting to plan the new federation. After many name considerations (including, coincidentally, THW), the name Michigan Wrestling Association was settled on. Their first event is currently being scheduled and booked.
