History
Federation origins
The five founders in Chris Cryptic, Curt Unearth, Michael Diablo, Blair Vertigo and Underminer had formed the In Your House Wrestling Alliance federation in October 2005, following their inspiration from Australian federation, Hunter Valley Wrestling Alliance believed to have paved the way for them after engaging in several of their shows.
IYHWA began producing video compilations online in April 2006, their first one entitled "Backyard Wrestling" from their earlier offline lucha libre exploits in a ring. This triggered an vast onset of fans and became a widely popular video across YouTube influencing the support of thousands. In addition, a second short-lived two-member federation was created citing the authencity of their federation name called Upstairs Wrestling Federation that took the settings of a home. Thereafter, IYHWA members gradually developed their talent.
In 2007, the federation reached an abrupt premature end due to backstage politics and issues overcoming settlement consequently believing to have plunged Australian backyard wrestling shortly after.
IYHWA V2
IYHWA v2 was an idea born out of the need to revive the Australian Circuit. Eyebrows were raised as IYHWA planned a return in 2008, with the return event "Withdrawal Symptoms" proving to be the start of what is now today one of the greatest, most influential federations the world has ever seen.
Today, IYHWA exists as the Hybrid Federation in Australia. With wrestlers traveling from across Australia to wrestle with the IYHWA.
