WCE Premier League Wrestling (RLS Universe Show)

WCE Premier League Wrestling is a professional wrestling show held by the Wrestling Council of Europe, primarily featuring matches from PRIZE Wrestling League, but occasionally showcasing matches from it's other promotions, as well as partner promotions, or select free agent pairings. 
It debuted in July 2010, before being rebranded in April 2019. The rebranded show will debut on Wednesday 25th April, and feature primarily PRIZE matches, with other promotions planned to guest appear either as single performers or making up whole matches.
== History ==
The show was created in 2010 upon WCE's official purchase of both AXL and English promotion BoBWrestling in 2010. Highlights of it's initial run with these promotions include Gunther winning the AXL Championship from Herz0G in a Three Falls Match, the Daniels Brothers defeating The Britadors to win the BoBWrestling Tag Championships, and Anglaterror's only aired match while being portrayed by original performer Mikey Ace.
Indian-owned, Swiss-based promotion Pro Wrestling Atom featured heavily following the collapse of BoBWrestling, to fill the gap, but the decline in quality saw ratings dwindle. In 2014, Fife Wrestling Kingdom signed a deal to have matches aired on the show, including Lucy Fer winning the Queen Championship in the first ever Queen's of Fife Battle Royal.
The 2018 season ended with matches from AXL, FWK, Pro Wrestling Atom and Wrestling upLOUD! having contributed.
== WCE Premier League Wrestling (2019) ==
The 2019 season was confirmed by WCE to be a reboot of the show, now primarily focussing on new acquisition PRIZE Wrestling League. The show debuted on Wednesday 24th April 2019, taking place at Arena Birmingham, and featured six matches from the WCE's Junior Heavyweight and Openweight Championship tournaments.
The main event saw Mikey Ace defeat JMW invite Akira Iguchi in a well received match, notable also for Chris Jericho making his WCE programming debut to attack Ace.
== Style ==
WCE have described the plan for the rebooted show to focus on wrestling almost entirely, telling the story through the actions of the wrestlers almost entirely, and having little to no "authority" on the show itself, with WCE stepping in to settle disputes through the website and social media.
== Trivia ==
* Despite it being a logical assumption, the show is not named for the Premier League football (soccer) league, but rather the idea of a "premier league" in more general terms. Coincidentally, the live show run by WCE is called Championship Wrestling1.
== Behind-the-Scenes/Notes ==
# This is actually a blatant lie on my part... they're named after the top two tiers of the English football pyramid.
