=== The Start ===
When Ivan Halfpint and Mattie McCullough failed to strike a deal with Icy Blackburn, who was owner of fledgling promotion Second Life Wrestling Entertainment (SWE) in mid-January 2008, they both decided it was best to start their own company. They started the Second Life Championship Wrestling group in-world, and began an operation to recruit a small group of wrestlers needed to put on shows and events for residents. At the same time, Alpin Criss was developing his first wrestling system for the SWE. After Ivan and Mattie persuaded Criss to join them at SLCW, he defected and pledged his allegiance to the new wrestling company. The SLCW began recruiting a number of wrestlers and staff willing to help out and perform. This included well known names such as Eric Stuart, Sidney Washborne and Waroop Bravin. With other wrestlers joining, and the consensus that they had enough staff to set up an event, it was decided that Saturday February 16th would be SLCW's first house show date. The company also began planning out their first storyline to introduce their World Heavyweight Championship belt. It was decided that Sidney Washborne and Rob Bukowski (who wrestled for the Evolution Pro Wrestling company, which was SL's first recognised and fully operating promotion) would challenge for the new belt. The show on February 16th went off without any major hitches and was declared a success, as a good crowd turned up to watch a quality night of wrestling. It was announced just a couple of days later that the promotion planned to host its first Pay-Per-View style event "St. Valentines Massacre" on March 1st. The company got its name out via various Second Life press sources, also getting onto a news programme the day before the event. The show's featured bout saw Sidney Washborne defeat Rob Bukowski to become the first World Heavyweight Champion. On this day as well, future wrestler, Hall Of Famer and now commentator Celtdan McMahon refereed the card.

[''Alpin's Comment:'' Icy was very young. Ivan and Mattie just wanted to work with him, but he flat out refused. I ended up going to Ivan's sim because Icy had thrown up so many freebie vendors (which he was attempting to markup for profit) that the sim would lag so bad you couldn't do anything. It was soup in there. So I went over to Ivan's sim just to be able to animate and integrate moves.

Thus the first version of the ACPWS was born. There wasn't any targeting. I was using a multi-animation script I found online. You could only target one guy with that. Basically, One person would wear an Odd numbered HUD, the other and Even. That's the way it worked. Very basic.

Our first crowd was very small. A handful of people, all of them people who we knew. It was fun though.

To this day I miss Ivan and Buger on the microphone. They were so much fun to listen to.]
