nWd Era

AWGP was originally known as the New World of Disorder (nWd). nWd began in June 2007 under the name Brisbane Pro Wrestling however later changed their name to Wrestling Entertainment Queensland due to the controversy using the word Pro. nWd was founded on the basis of three already exsisting federations, Total Nonstop Teenage Wrestling based bayside/northside Brisbane, Australian Wrestling League based Southside Brisbane and Full Throttle Wrestling Academy based in Caboolture/Bribie Island. nWd was originally to be an alliance between these federations producing a weekly webcast from each federation.

However numbers began to dwindle and in June 2008, the three federations joined forces to form one promotion making tapings and meetings easier for everyone. With the purchase of a low-level ring, and the introduction of Pro Training, nWd became the revolutionary force in Amature Sports Entertainment. nWd soon began promoting regular events and in early 2009 moved into a pro ring on the Gold Coast.

nWd ceased promoting after an individual calling himself "The Mastermind", "Kirsty Kleen", "Matt Falkner" grew jealous of he success of nWd, with nWd taking the place of his federation as Australia's Biggest, and decided to destroy the reputation of nWd and promoter AV Dangerously. At first is stories and lies were beleived by the roster however his continuous 'attacks' have become so comical (including badly photoshopped 'nude photos') that his posts are now the topic of humourous conversations. HOWEVER The Mastermind was successful in creating mistrust between several nWd members as his hacks and attacks coincided with a 'Truth Gathering Session' from two senior nWd performers. Hacker made the hacks look like it was done by the two senior Superstars but failed to take into account that nWd was more than just wrestling, it was the one thing that brought 7 groups together, become best friends and it will take a lot more then a jealous yarder to break that up. If anything it has inspired EVERYONE to succeed more than nWd did whether as a group or individually. On November 2 2009 It was revealed that the Matt Falkner character was released nWd member Konvict / Callum Gallway. Konvict was arrested for Fraud, Theft, Entering Property Without Permission and Sending Death Threats by the Queensland Police and is still facing disiplinary actions in the Queensland Judicial System

AWGP Era

AWGP returned to it's former glory when the superstars reunited to produce all new matches and featurettes. Several traditional concepts would remain however with the injection of new blood and new attitude, AWGP is set to bring the best in Aussie Underground Wrestling. On the February 23, 2010 edition of Backyard Wrestling Weekly, AWGP was inducted into Global Backyard Wrestling Nation.

The roster was originally made up of several yarding veterens but at the second set of tapings, the biggest debut of rookies since 2007 occured making the roster the biggest in size since 2008.

In late October 2010, AWGP-Online announced that AWGP would close so that the roster could focus on their professional careers and training. The final show is scheduled to be uploaded from December 1 2010 with a Triple Title Unification Match.

Webcasts

AWGP decided to present a spread out presentation of wrestling meets instead of uploading all at once allowing for the extension of storylines. Webcasts are commonly one YouTube Video in length with occasionally extending into a second or third video for the extra special matches. Webcasts are seperated into chapters to allow easier archiving and storyline seperation.
