SCAW Tournament

The **SCAW Tournament** is a CAW wrestling single-elimination tournament held by SCAW. Thirty-two SCAW wrestlers compete in a single elimination tournament until only one is declared the winner.

The first tournament in 2007 determined who will claim the SCAW Championship and it culminated at SCAW Blood, Sweat & Tears (2007).

Since 2008 it's become used to determine who will get a shot at the title at SCAW Blood, Sweat & Tears. For added variety, both the SCAW Internet Championship and the SCAW Zero-One Championship are defended in the first round. The 2008 and 2009 tournaments culminated at SCAW No Guts No Glory but SCAW Ascendance has hosted the tournament since 2010.
