Wrestling Superstars Live
Wrestling Superstars Live was a governing body for a group of independent professional wrestling promotions and sanctioned various championships. It was founded in 1996 by Dale Gagner and Jonnie Stewart.
==History==
In 1996, Dale Gagner and his associate Jonnie Stewart, former American Wrestling Association (AWA) employees, legally began using the AWA name in the state of Minnesota with the authorization from the Minnesota Secretary of State and formed an organization known as AWA Superstars of Wrestling. They began trading off the organization as something of a continuation of the American Wrestling Association, which closed down in 1991. Dale Gagner even began using the pseudonym "Dale Gagne", (removing the letter "r" from his name). This was in reference to Verne Gagne, the original owner of the American Wrestling Association.
By 2005, the organization began to franchise the AWA Superstars of Wrestling name, selling memberships to existing independent promotions around the United States, Canada, United Kingdom and Japan. Several members of AWA Superstars of Wrestling were former members of the National Wrestling Alliance. In 2007, most of the memberships were terminated, and Gagner and Stewart began co-promoting shows with a small number of regional promoters instead.
According to many wrestling journalists, and testimonial by their Main Event performer, Sgt. Slaughter, Gagne and Stewart hold the unofficial record for live attendance for an independent, non-televised wrestling promotion. Their event in Pine Bluff, AK, (5,397 paid) broke the record held by Sam DeCerco's, Windy City Pro Wrestling's event in 1988 at the International Ampitheater in Chicago. Events in Fresno, CA, Gallup, New Mexico and The Stampede Arena in Greeley, CO, drew well over 4,000 paid fans for each production. With Jerry Lawler as their main event, in Harrington, Delaware, the company came close to breaking their own record with just over 5,000 paid.
