http://dbpedia.org/resource/NWA_Shockwave an entity of type: Company
NWA Shockwave (NWA-SW, formerly known as CyberSpace Wrestling Federation and NWA: Cyberspace) was a professional wrestling promotion that was founded by Billy Firehawk in Staten Island, New York in 2001, and later relocated to Wayne, New Jersey. It was the earliest promotion to bring in major stars to Central New Jersey, many being seen in live events for the first time, and attracted a loyal following for its traditional "family friendly" style of wrestling. It was the single major promotion of this type to run New Jersey, other rival promotions favoring hardcore-style wrestling, and was at one time considered the top promotion in the region along with Jersey All Pro Wrestling.

NWA Shockwave (укр. NWA Шокова Хвиля) — американська федерація професійного реслінгу, розташована в районі Стейтен-Айленд, місто Нью-Йорк. Її заснував Біллі Фаєрхоук в 2001 році, а згодом компанія переїхала в місто Вейн, штат Нью-Джерсі. У ранній період роботи основною задачею федерації було представити широкій публіці центральної частини Нью-Джерсі раніше нікому не відомих бійців і привернути увагу шанувальників «сімейного» стилю боротьби. Свого часу NWA Shockwave була чи не єдиним промоушеном реслінгу в районі Нью-Джерсі і досі вважається одною з найкращих федерацій (на рівні з Jersey All Pro Wrestling) в галузі представлення нових талантів.

NWA Shockwave (NWA-SW, formerly known as CyberSpace Wrestling Federation and NWA: Cyberspace) was a professional wrestling promotion that was founded by Billy Firehawk in Staten Island, New York in 2001, and later relocated to Wayne, New Jersey. It was the earliest promotion to bring in major stars to Central New Jersey, many being seen in live events for the first time, and attracted a loyal following for its traditional "family friendly" style of wrestling. It was the single major promotion of this type to run New Jersey, other rival promotions favoring hardcore-style wrestling, and was at one time considered the top promotion in the region along with Jersey All Pro Wrestling. The company was known for its early use of the internet to promote itself, and was the earliest known wrestling organization to broadcast its events on a regular webcast; their show, "Shockwave TV", aired on ITV until 2005. After Firehawk's death in 2006, control of the company fell to Derek Gordon, who ran the company until its close the following year. The promotion had a working relationship with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, helped by Firehawk's friendship with Mike Tenay, which allowed it to feature TNA stars, storylines and sanction title defenses of the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. Among the number of then current and future stars who spent time in the promotion included Abyss, Amazing Red, A.J. Styles, Michael Shane, Christopher Daniels, C.M. Punk, D'Lo Brown, Julio Dinero, Sonjay Dutt, Kip James, Frankie Kazarian, Jeff Jarrett, Ron Killings, Jay Lethal, Bobby Roode, Shark Boy, Elix Skipper, Petey Williams, America's Most Wanted (Chris Harris & James Storm), The Naturals (Andy Douglas & Chase Stevens) and The S.A.T. (Jose & Joel Maximo). Many former stars from Extreme Championship Wrestling and World Championship Wrestling also appeared for the promotion; Chris Candido and Tammy Lynn Sytch, Danny Doring, Chris Hamrick, E. Z. Money, Jerry Lynn, Rodney Mack and Rhino from ECW and Crowbar, Kanyon, Diamond Dallas Page, Lex Luger and Vince Russo from WCW. Both Tammy Lynn Sytch and Vince Russo "retired" at NWA Cyberspace shows. Several independent wrestlers also competed in the promotion during their early careers such as Gran Akuma, Slyck Wagner Brown, Mike Kruel, The Smoke, "The Alpha Male" Justin Powers, Rob Eckos and Xavier. Chikara's Mike Quackenbush and World Xtreme Wrestling's The Hungarian Barbarian and Mana the Polynesian Warrior were also regulars. Brown has claimed that NWA Cyberspace/Shockwave was his favorite promotion to work for. Upon joining the National Wrestling Alliance in 2005, the promotion became known as NWA: Cyberspace and then NWA Shockwave. It was affiliated with several other regional NWA promotions in the Northeastern United States, specifically NWA New Jersey/New York, NWA North Jersey and NWA Upstate, as well as having a working relationship with Mikey Whipwreck's New York Wrestling Connection. Several of his students wrestled in the promotion Ken Scampi, Mike Spinelli, Mason Raige, Quiet Storm, Tara Charisma and Trinity. The promotion boasted an impressive roster of female wrestlers as well. Among them included Alexis Laree, April Hunter, Tracy Brooks, , Jazz, Lacey, Nikki Roxx, O.D.B, Serena, Sumie Sakai, Talia Madison and managers Alere Little Feather and Jade Chung. Jasmin St. Claire, former co-owner of Pro Pain Pro Wrestling (3PW) with then boyfriend The Blue Meanie, also served as its commissioner until its close.

Компанія також відома тим, що одна з перших в цій галузі почала просувати себе за допомоги Інтернету, а також транслювала своє шоу «Shockwave TV» на каналі ITV аж до 2005 року. Після смерті Дейзі Фаєрхоука в 2006 році керування компанією взяв на себе Дерек Гордон і головував аж до закриття федерації в 2007 році.
