World Level Wrestling

World Level Wrestling (WLW) is a Magisterian professional wrestling promotion based in Blackburn, Hildegarde. The promotion was founded by Jefferson Belmont, Jean-Jacques Roy, and Brad Walter, and was operated by Kairo Duval from 2005 to 2015 before Jean-Jacques Roy purchased the company.

Created in 2000, WLW have pioneered the concept of mixing traditional sports entertainment with the serious side of professional wrestling. By combining the new style with a sense of fun, they have a product that serves as the best alternative to the three larger companies: Golden Canvas Traditional Grappling (GCTG), Pride Glory Honor Wrestling (PGHW), and Violent Extreme Wrestling (VEW).

From its inception, the promotion had been considered the third-largest in Magisteria. WLW was viewed by some to have fallen behind longtime rival Violent Extreme Wrestling in 2013, with the loss of their television contract with CBS2, as well as monetary and personnel issues, being noted as factors to their decline. Since 2015, WLW has been thought by many to have recovered, through the purchase by co-founder Jean-Jacques Roy, and securing a television contract with MTV.

Formation and early history (2000-2002)
The concept of WLW originated shortly after Danger And Violence Extreme (DAVE) began its meteoric rise into prominence in 2000. A trio of wrestling enthusiasts Jefferson Belmont, Brad Walter, and Jean-Jacques Roy, with the help of various investors, opened up a new wrestling promotion in December 2000, with Belmont coining the name 'World Level Wrestling'.

The original intention of the trio was to get WLW viewed as a more PG entertainment-based product to the then-larger two companies Golden Canvas Traditional Grappling (GCTG) and Danger And Violence Extreme (DAVE).

Growth and surging popularity (2002-2005)
By 2002, WLW was slowly but surely making a name for themselves, creating their weekly television program WLW Shockwave, which first aired via broadcast syndication. WLW would began producing monthly pay-per-views in 2003, beginning with No Love Lost in February 2003.

Kairo Duval leadership (2005-2015)
In 2005, Kairo Duval - who is the personal assistant of Jefferson Belmont - took over WLW. Under his leadership, WLW would see several revamps in 2006. WLW began using the six-sided ring, which was popularized by American promotion Total Nonstop Action. WLW also introduced the 'Show Stealer' division, which is technically the company's cruiserweight division, and it proved to be very popular in the following years. Duval's leadership was tainted with controversial, questionable creative decisions, and backstage politics.

Decline (2013-2015)
From the period of 2013 and 2015, many well-known names or veterans of the company left WLW. The company's largest star Herculez left in December 2013 after his contract expired, which was considered to be an enormous blow to WLW as Herculez was their most profitable star during the time of the beginning of the decline. CBS2 cancelled Shockwave after a series of disagreements.

Acquisition of Jean-Jacques Roy, Tommy Cornell's arrival, and resurgence (2015-present)
In mid-2015, Jean-Jacques Roy purchased a majority stake of WLW. Kairo Duval retained a 10% minority stake in the company, but left the company in late-2015. On January 4, 2016, former DAVE star Tommy Cornell obtained the 'Head of Creative' position, while James Heatly - Phil Vibert's former personal assistant - was brought in by Cornell to serve as a consultant. An excellent 2017 has put them on the map once again since 2013, and has seen WLW as the fourth top promotion in Magisteria. The amazing match quality that the 'golden generation' wrestlers like Eli Morton, Jesse Van Holt, Marco De Francesco, Tyler Mercury, and Timothy Hawk has put them to new heights since 2018.

Contracts
WLW signs most of its talent to exclusive contracts, meaning talent can appear or perform only on WLW programming and events though it has partnerships with Japan's New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), Pro Wrestling Zero-1 (ZERO1), and the United States' All Elite Wrestling (AEW)
