IWE Rebellion was an annual professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event that was produced by the International Wrestling Entertainment (IWE), an American professional wrestling promotion. Established in 1999, the events were held and broadcast exclusively in the United Kingdom. The first three events were held when the promotion was still called the International Wrestling Federation (IWF). Rebellion was also shown on the Viewers Choice service in Canada, but was never televised in the United States. Rebellion had its own theme song titled "Rebellion".
To coincide with the brand extension, the 2002 event was a SmackDown!-exclusive show, which was the promotion's very first SmackDown!-exclusive PPV. Additionally, the 2002 event, which was the only held under the IWE name, was the final Rebellion PPV as UK-exclusive pay-per-views were discontinued in 2003 as IWE began to broadcast Raw and SmackDown! from the UK in 2004.
