IWE Rebellion
From Iwe
Rebellion was an annual professional wrestling pay-per-view event held by International Wrestling Entertainment (IWE) that was exclusively for the United Kingdom on Sky Box Office. In 2002, the pay-per-view was a SmackDown! exclusive show. It was no longer an annual event after all UK-exclusive pay-per-views ceased in 2003. Rebellion had its own theme song aptly titled "Rebellion".
