  • Championship Wrestling from Florida
rdfs:comment
  • Championship Wrestling from Florida (CWF) was the corporate and brand name of the Tampa, Florida wrestling office starting in 1961 when Eddie Graham first bought into the promotion. It is commonly incorrectly called Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW), but the name was Championship Wrestling from Florida until the promotion closed in 1987. The rights to the name lapsed and were acquired by an outside party, and when Mike Graham tried a return to promoting, he was forced to use another name, so he chose 'Florida Championship Wrestling'. This is the probable source of the confusion.
