COMBAT ZONE WRESTLING (CZW)

CZW was founded in 1999.  The company originally built its reputation on a strong roster of homegrown talent, many of whom were culled from its own wrestling school, and a “hardcore” reputation.  Shedding some of the hardcore in favor of a balanced mix of high-flying action, technical wrestling, and its tried and true hardcore style, CZW has earned itself a reputation as one of the top independent wrestling organizations in the world.

The company runs shows monthly at the New Alhambra Arena (formerly home to the legendary ECW) in Philadelphia.

 

LOCOMOTIVE VISION

Locomotive Vision is a division of Locomotive Records.  Locomotive Records was founded in 1996 by music producer Goyo Esteban.  Since its formation 11 years ago, the company has become one of the biggest Independent labels in Europe, South America, and the United States.  With well-known artists from many genres, its main focus remains rock and metal music, and as a US licensor for bigger Indie labels.  As a small record label in Spain, the company started with a lone office in Madrid but soon opened up another office in Cologne, Germany, in 2002.  That office is now responsible for the international business and artistic vision for the whole company.  In January 2008 Locomotive Records opened a US office in New York to increase its profile in the US market and offer a local and country-specific partner to expand its business even further.
