History
England Era
TBW was formed in England by wrestlers such as Ry, Alex Harte and Tank. TBW performed with weekly shows and monthly FPVs. TBW gained a fanbase in England. TBW was headlined by wrestlers such as the above mentioned and Calum, Halias and others. TBW had a talent exchange program with (now defunct) Ultimate British Wrestling where Ry and Alex Harte would go on to perform on their Free-Per-View events aswell as UBW stars such as Jonny Magnum, Swinnbad and Mr Insaneo appearing on their shows, as far to the point as Swinnbad winning their 24/7 Championship. TBW would run in England for 2 years, with the company going on indefinite hiatus with failed 'rebirths' throughout 2010, and then TBW was put up for sale.
The Buyover - New TBW
On 23rd October 2010, The Empire, a faction of British wrestlers led by wealthy investors, bought over TBW along with HomeGrown Extreme Wrestling and Nairn Wrestling Entertainment as part of their 'UKBYW Conquest'. TBW was now moved to Inverness, Scotland and had a completely new roster and booking team supplied, allowing for a completely new TBW. Ry and Alex Harte have both expressed intent in coming to wrestle for the new side of the promotion. TBW look to hold one episode of TBW - Full Force before beginning the winter off-season.
