Global Championship Wrestling is an active federation that is part of the Primetime Community. It is owned and operated by Caldera Enterprises, Incorporated, headed by GCW Founder and President Steven Caldera. GCW was started in 2001 and has run on and off since then.

Pre-History

Steven Caldera began in 2000 in a federation called the American Championship Wrestling Federation. GCW fans may recognize the anagram as the very same as GCW's most legendary match. The ACWF was short lived, but it gave Caldera the contacts necessary to begin forming the core for GCW. There he first worked with Mr. Danger, Khan, Octavian, and best friend The Jhub.

During his time in the ACWF, Caldera suffered a severe knee injury that hampered him for the remainder of his career. Due to the nature of the injury, Caldera opted to find his next job as a leader rather than a wrestler. Caldera brought his ACWF friends to the Krotzer's CWU. The CWU operated very successfully under Caldera's guidance, but eventually a leadership dispute caused the CWU to close. Caldera took an expanded core, now including such originals as Toxic, Toad and Rich Rollins to his new promotion. GCW was born in 2001 from this core.
