A Supercard or free per view, is a sport event used as a makeshift term for the equivalent of "pay per view" which is a rarity for backyard wrestling as in fact, the practice usually does not generate any profit for ungoverned events that take place in predominantly unprofessional areas. This is due to federations not procuring deals for PPV television for their unprofessional environment, diminitive attendance and the fact that PPV companies wish not to support or endorse it. However, supercards are respected in the same way a pay per view is, with the federation's biggest matches and feuds being featured on the card.

Supershows

Since arguably 2006, the growing culture of backyard wrestling supershows began to grow. Normally seen as a houseshow in professional wrestling promotions, backyard wrestling has incorporated the specialty of the type of event differently as a multi-match, cross promotion mega show featuring wrestlers of various federations that are mostly in the boundaries of their shared territory as occasionally, some wrestlers willingly travel. Although these shows are organized largely, the attendance, most of which are usually the wrestlers, still remains small. In 2008, one of the first ever notable two-day supershows were held in New York's Round Lake Syndicate Wrestling at RLSW No Remorse 3.
