MXW Pro Wrestling (MXW) is an independent professional wrestling promotion founded and operated by former ECW manager and color commentator Joel Gertner. The company is based in New York, New York, but has presented the majority of its live events in Connecticut.
After the cancellation of ECW on TNN, a weekly prime-time cable TV program which ran from 1999 to 2000 on the network currently known as Spike, Joel Gertner became active on the independent circuit. After working with several promotions in the New York Tri-State and New England regions, Gertner launched MXW Pro Wrestling in late 2004. Their premiere event was held at Crystal's Night Club in Bristol, Connecticut on November 5, 2004, and featured an appearance by Matt Striker as Muscles Marinara and saw ECW Triple Crown winner Mikey Whipwreck defeat Maverick Wild and "Sudden Impact" Dylan Kage in the main event.
They returned to the same venue for their second show on January 30, 2005, at which Boogalou defeated Jay Lethal in the main event. Following this event, the company went on hiatus for approximately one year.
MXW returned in early 2006 and announced that their third show would be held on April 1, 2006, at Crystal's Night Club. This event included the first match between Jason Blade and Xavier and the MXW debuts of Plazma (Trent Barretta) and Josh Daniels.
