Pro Wrestling WORLD-1 was founded by Steve Corino in 2004. It was the American version of Japan’s Zero-One promotion. In 2008, WORLD-1 -seeing the landscape of Pro Wrestling was sorely missing something – returned as a family friendly promotion running events in New Jersey.

In 2020, WORLD-1 made a deal to sell its tape library to ECWA the longest running independent wrestling promotion going today. A number of matches from WORLD-1’s library have been uploaded to the official ECWA Youtube channel.
