Anarchy Wrestling Association of CAW

**Anarchy Wrestling Association of CAW** is an online Youtube CAW federation created by RC99 Productions (Previously known as KingdomRazor99 and RazorChampion99). Although it appeared on YouTube in 2013, it was created in late 2006.

## Background

### **Origins**

A.W.A.C. was created by Donte Hamid in late 2006 using WWE Smackdown! VS. RAW 2006 for PS2 and PSP. It showcased a mix of original characters, video game/TV/anime characters and the very best of CAW. A.W.A.C. originally started as an E-fed played out on the game then written on notes, but sadly the notes have been lost forever.

The notes included match results, title changes/defenses, wrestler profiles and in-depth descriptions of matches which were heavily inspired by the *Power Slam* and *Fighting Spirit* magazines that Donte used to collect in his youth. The original E-Fed roster ranged from CAW legends such as Mr. Clean, Superman, Spider-Man, and Jason Voorhees to real-life wrestlers such as CM Punk, Kevin Steen, and The Undertaker to various characters who weren't used as much in CAW such as Noob Saibot from *Mortal Kombat* and Espio from *Sonic the Hedgehog*; Espio would become one of A.W.A.C.'s "legends" because of his many contributions during the E-Fed era.

In mid-2017, the notes became lost forever due to Donte moving house and leaving a lot of stuff behind, which would unfortunately be thrown away, such as childhood toys, video games, VHS tapes, DVDs and comic books. However, a small portion of his belongings were saved and resides at his current home.

### **Current Operations**

In early 2013, A.W.A.C. began posting shows to its first YouTube channel KingdomRazor99, such as its 1st CPV In Your House: Yes Or Yes. After a 2-3 month hiatus, it released its 2nd CPV No Guts, No Mercy. Afterwards, the channel was shut down due to multiple copyright strikes. As a result, the first 5 episodes of Anarchy Season 1 plus most of the matches from No Guts, No Mercy were deleted and never recovered. In September 2013, the second (and current) channel RazorChampion99, now known as RC99 Productions, surfaced on YouTube. It was here that A.W.A.C. would upload the surviving matches and continue forward to this day.

In 2016, after a lengthy hiatus, A.W.A.C. came back on to Youtube on WWE 2K16. Its flagship show Anarchy, as well as a special interpromotional show with NCA called "Death And Duality" was also uploaded to YouTube, although these shows were recorded via PS4's recorded streaming feature (albeit with glitchy, mixed results).

Since 2017, A.W.A.C. is currently recorded via Elgato capture card (instead of the crappy laptop webcam) and has moved onto the WWE 2K games as well as other occasionally holding matches on past wrestling games such as Smackdown: Shut Your Mouth and Smackdown VS. RAW 2006. In 2018, A.W.A.C. split into 2 brands: Anarchy and Liberty; each with their own distinct rosters and championship belts. The brand split went on for 4 years until July 22, 2021, when then-newly-appointed A.W.A.C. COO Revy announced that the brand split would cease operations and therefore, Liberty would shut down and Anarchy would remain as the sole brand in A.W.A.C.. Liberty ran for 20 episodes with its twentieth and final episode airing on February 2, 2021.

### **Style And Influences**

A.W.A.C. was clearly influenced by its popular predecessors such as SCAW, SMF, UWO, NoDQ CAW, SNJ, and ICCW among others with its mix of original characters and characters from popular mediums such as TV, movies, and comic books. A.W.A.C. leans more towards a serious-style CAW league similar to SCAW but at heart, it doesn't take itself too seriously and comedy is sometimes injected into wrestlers, storylines, segments, and promos. Nova's commentary takes some inspiration from SMF's Bob Ross like his notable screaming of "YAAAAASSSSS!!!" and "WHAAAAAATTTTT???"; Nova is also notable for calling certain moves, like Dropkick, in broken Japanese English as he loves Japanese pro wrestling.

A.W.A.C.'s in-ring style is a mix of the regular "Sports Entertainment"/WWE style, Lucha Libre from Mexico, Strong Style from Japan, and the hardcore/deathmatch style from companies such as ECW, GCW, and FMW as shown from the amount of deathmatches A.W.A.C. has sanctioned. A.W.A.C. has also adopted what the company calls "SCAW Rules"; a set of rules first formed in SCAW where every match on a CPV mega-event is contested under no count-outs and no disqualifications to ensure a clear winner. However, corner/referee stoppages, knockouts, no contests or draws can still occur albeit on rare occasions.

### **Relationships**

Over its long lifespan, A.W.A.C. has partnered with many CAW leagues and still maintains great relationships with some leagues even though a handful are either defunct or on hiatus. EWWE and NCA could be considered as A.W.A.C.'s "best friends" due to the real-life friendships between its real-life CAW creators/owners. A.W.A.C. has also previously partnered with CAWVerse and VWU for a short time before leaving for personal reasons. Other leagues A.W.A.C. has worked with include AIR, AWE, CXWI, and was once part of the collective known as the CAW[N]Spiracy.

Perhaps what is A.W.A.C.'s most memorable partnership was with SCAW when they co-promoted the special event "Challenge Of The Immortals" which saw a card full of interpromotional matches between the two companies; both A.W.A.C. and SCAW still maintain a great relationship today. A.W.A.C. is open to working with other promotions to entertain fans in the CAW community and promote both leagues. A.W.A.C. has put it out there that they would love to work with ICCW, XGWL, WEDF, UCWL, and TWA.
