[10.0] "After looking at some clips and research, you have to give credit for where it's due. This promotion helped guys like Nigel McGunniess, Jon Moxley/Dean Ambrose, Sami Callihan/Solomon Crowe, Matt Stryker's son (Andrew Stryker), Heather Owens, Shawna Reed, & many others. One of the few indy federations to have a stable relationship with a major company without getting bought out. This promotion had the WWF Hardcore Title, ECW World Heavyweight Title, NWA Worlds Heavyweight Title, SHIMMER Tag Team Titles (Twice), & NWA World Junior Heavyweight Title defended throughout it's lifespan. It also was a sort of developmental but able to do it's own thing without being restrained by WWE."

"HWA was the best local indy promotion ever. I was heart broken when the company was done. They created many future wwe superstars. Such a lost opportunity..."
