History
The company was established in 2004 based out of Berwyn, Illinois. Events were largely held in the Berwyn Eagles Club until 2015 when majority of shows began being held at 115 Bourbon St. in Merrionette Park, IL. Currently, two shows a year are still held at the Berwyn Eagles Club and two are held at the Logan Square Auditorium in Chicago. [2][3] AAW has also ran events in Illinois in Carpentersville, Highwood, Milan, Palatine, Arlington Heights, and Pontiac and events in Iowa in Davenport and Donahue.
AAW originally stood for All American Wrestling, but has been simply recognized as AAW since the start of 2007. Tony Scarpone owned and ran AAW from its start in 2004 through May 2005 when Danny Daniels and Jim Lynam began running the company. Danny and Jim then purchased AAW in December 2005.
Perhaps the moment when AAW really began to gain recognition was at the Windy City Classic event in November 2005 when Jimmy Jacobs interupted a match between Cameron Cage and Mikey Lee and threw the IWA Heavyweight Title into a trash can.
