Showtime All-Star Wrestling and NWA Southern All-Star Wrestling is an American professional wrestling promotion based in Rockwood, Tennessee.

History

SAW began in April 2007, started then business partners Reno Riggins and TJ Weatherby at Weatherby's "SAW Mill," in Millersville, Tennessee. In 2009, Riggins left. He then began to run shows in Nashville, at the Tennessee State Fairgrounds.

SAW then ran shows at the Former Freddie Morton's Auction House (redubbed the new "SAW Mill") which became an Antique Shop in Columbia, Tennessee, and at the Old Armory Building in Pulaski, Tennessee.

Until 2012, SAW toured as well. On November 11, 2012 SAW teamed with the NWA (National Wrestling Alliance) to form the New NWA SAW, in addition, SAW returned to Millersville, Tennessee and changed their format, going under the all new NWA SAW Branding. As of March 2013, NWA SAW moved out of the SAWMill in Millersville, and organized events in venues across Middle Tennessee. The company went under new ownership in 2014. Sold by NWA President Bruce Tharpe to John Jason Womack, this purchase gave him him permission to use the NWA logos on all SAW belts. SAW do shows weekly in Rockwood, Spring City, and Dayton.
