Original Backstory
Deep Impact Wrestling are the hardcore counter-culture alternative in Australian wrestling. They were set up by veteran rebel The Comedian in 2009 who had become infuriated by the rise of RAW and all it represented. The concept behind DIW is to be everything that RAW is not; down and dirty wrestling aimed squarely at young males who want a fix of violence, hardcore action. Beers flow, blood is spilled, and one giant middle finger is extended in the direction of Sports Entertainment.

In 2014, British documentary maker Josh Rosenberg and his film crew spent six months backstage with DIW to produce 'Why We Fight'; the film was a surprise hit at festivals around the world. The money DIW made from it has been credited with helping them stay in business, having been on the verge of bankruptcy when the film was shot.

Formation(1986)
Veteran Australian Brawler The Comedian formed Deep Impact Wrestling in 1986 after seeing that the wrestling industy in Austrlia has been "Disgraced" by foreign companies and soap operas. DIW was meant to be the opposite of all this: Local Hardcore Wrestling with Blood and Beer. Their first show DIW Consequences was a success and new younger stars were all over the place with the veterans.

Silent Times(1987-1996)
This is a time for prospirity for DIW, as it grew without limits, amassing tens of thousands of fans all over the country. The Comedian and his student Abattoir became the 2 biggest stars in the promotion, being the major draws for the company. However Abattoir  left the company in 1994, leaving The Comedian as the only major draw for the company, although other Main Event stars started to gain popularity.

The Catfish and the VCW Invasion(Present)
At the DIW New Year's Brawl Event VCW stars Tommy Dreamer, The Sandman , and Paul Heyman appeared within the crowd surprisingly. Later during the show, The Sandman and Tommy Dreamer interefered in a match out of Kayfabe, which caused The Comedian to have Lori to catfish Dreamer and Sandman, causing a major problem for VCW. However, VCW decided not to work against DIW after the incident but rather work with them, which started an Invasion Angle over both companies.
