The SWA was founded by Kristen Brown in 2005.
Kristen was once a top star in the IWF (Insane Wrestling Federation.
When the IWF closed it's doors many including Kristen sought out other feds
for employment. While everyone else found a happy home wherever they
happened to be, Kristen felt restless and ill at ease with any fed she
joined. No matter what she did, it just didn't feel like home.
Her state of unrest caused problems in her marriage with the infamous IWF
superstar Simmy Psychotic and she eventually found herself signing divorce
papers.
After the divorce proceedings were over, Kristen moved
back to Ohio and began working with talent from the Columbus music scene.
She spent a year working as a booking agent and promoter for many of the
popular bands in Columbus. This kept the restlessness at bay for a few
months but the ring still beckoned. Finally Kristen took her earnings
as well as her part of the divorce settlement and began construction of the
Skyfall Arena.
In late October, UPN dropped SWA programming due to an
FCC violation. Neck deep in lawsuits from the FCC and from UPN,
Kristen handed over the SWA to her protégé Crystal Pierce. They buried the
bad blood between each other and signed the papers on November 24, 2005.
Or so we all thought....Kristen was secretly biding her time organizing a
revival of the IWF, using former IWF superstars in the SWA. They formed
and invaded, battering the SWA roster for three months! Finally one of
their own turned on them and the IWF once again collapsed.
