Championship Wrestling from Hollywood
Championship Wrestling is an American professional wrestling promotion and television program created by David Marquez, who serves as the promotion's president and on-camera interviewer. The television series originally premiered on September 17, 2010, and aired on KDOC-TV Los Angeles as well as first-run syndication in the United States.
Championship Wrestling is the flagship of the United Wrestling Network. Until 2012, both the promotion and show were known as NWA Championship Wrestling from Hollywood, and was a member of the National Wrestling Alliance. In 2022, CWFH was merged with Championship Wrestling from Arizona and Championship Wrestling from Atlanta under the Championship Wrestling presented by CarShield banner. The new series would premiere on the weekend of April 24, 2022.

Early years
NWA Hollywood was originally produced with Big Vision Entertainment and taped at Columbia Square Studios in Hollywood.After launching on KDOC-TV, the Galaxy Theater in Santa Ana became the promotion's home venue. On 12 May 2012, NWA Hollywood ran its first non-TV event in its history, with Scorpio Sky vs. Nick Madrid as it main event.
NWA Hollywood was originally booked by Adam Pearce; he was replaced by Joey Ryan in January 2011. On August 4, 2011, Ryan was relieved of his duties.

On August 13, 2013, CWFH move to the Oceanview Pavilion in Port Hueneme, California, with tapings held on the second and fourth Sunday of each month. That same day, Matt Striker joined the announce team, and The Grappler made his initial on-camera debut as a manager. On October 22, 2013, CWFH and nine other wrestling promotions created a new governing body known as the United Wrestling Network.In 2017, CWFH would briefly re-establish a partnership with the NWA, now under the ownership of Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins, wherein Nick Aldis feuded with Tim Storm for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship.
In September 2020, Aron Haddad was made the promotion's booker. On October 3, 2020, Marquez stepped down as executive producer, naming Nick Bonnano as the new EP.
Merger and relaunch
