Xtreme Championship Wrestling formerly known as Xtreme Corio Wrestling is backyard wrestling federation located in Geelong, Victoria Australia created by the two brothers Ashley and Ben Nero.

Xtreme Championship Wrestling began in late 2008 early 2009. XCW focuses on the hardcore side of wrestling but still caters for traditional and technical wrestling. Currently the owner of XCW is Ashley Nero, however, he is on a short term break so one of XCW's many wrestlers Steve Howard (Gunna Killer) has taken on ownership for the time being. XCW went on hiatus at the end of 2010, came back in start of 2011 and the end of 2011 then went on hiatus again for the entirety of 2012. From 2013 onwards XCW are holding monthly shows. XCW's house show is called Zero Hour and it's main annual Pay Per View is End War.

Inception In late 2008 early 2009 two brothers Ashley and Ben Nero started a backyard wrestling federation in Geelong Victoria called Xtreme Corio Wrestling (now known as Xtreme Championship Wrestling). They created this federation due the folding of Corio Extreme Backyard Wrestling, when this happened the wrestlers from there quickly moved to XCW. The current roster of XCW is:

Part timers are Halen. XCW's first show was succesful. It's first show saw the debut of C2J and Andrew Riley since CEBW folded.

Style of Wrestling XCW has taken up the style of hardcore wrestling as the basis of the federation, it does cater for non-hardcore styled wrestling like, mat,technical and Greco-Roman styles of wrestling. The most innovative match the XCW came up with is the Apocalypse match where either opponent must score two pinfalls then make his opponent bleed in order to win. Another innovative match XCW made is the Climb or Die ladder match, in which the combatants can win by either pinfall or climbing the ladder to retrieve either a contract or a championship title.

Championships

The first ever XCW World Heavyweight Champion was Devon Cash (who is now retired) who beat Silhouette, so far the XCW originals Drake, Hellhammer and C2J have held the XCW World heavyweight title the most compared to the rest of the roster, Drake twice, Andrew Riley two or three (still under debate), C2J twice and Hellhammer once. The most controversial championship XCW brought in was the massacre title which was held by Drake and later disused, the title saw action for only one show. The Hardcore championship to this day continues to be classed as the title that built XCW for its classic and brutal matches and the past roster trying to see who could beat The Shak for the title. The Tag Team titles however, were and on and off feature, several times there was a decline in the roster of XCW.The Tv title was another key championship for XCW's early stage, it was regarded as the 'top of the mountain' in the mid-card roster. It was held the most by ReduX in which today archivists are still trying to collaborate how many times he held the championship. In XCW's return, the owner brought in the Pacific and returned the Hardcore titles.
