AWA (American Wrestling Association) Championship Wrestling was a professional wrestling promotion based in the United States. It started in 1960 and continued until 1991. It was originally founded by Verne Gagne and Wally Karbo in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The promotion was known for being a pioneer of professional wrestling, introducing new concepts and matches that were not seen before in the industry. Some of these include the battle royal, the steel cage match, and the gauntlet match.
Over the years, AWA Championship Wrestling featured many notable wrestlers, such as Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Jerry Lawler, Bret Hart, and many others. It was also the home of some of the most iconic wrestling rivalries, such as the one between Hulk Hogan and Nick Bockwinkel.
The promotion had its own weekly television show, which aired on various networks across the country. The show featured matches, interviews, and promos, and was popular among wrestling fans.
Although AWA Championship Wrestling was eventually surpassed in popularity by other wrestling promotions, it remains a significant part of professional wrestling history.
