MXW is an independent professional wrestling promotion run and co-owned by former ECW television personality Joel Gertner, who co-hosted ECW on TNN (now called Spike TV), a weekly prime-time cable TV program which ran from 1999 to 2000. The company has offices in New York, NY and Waterbury, CT in the United States, and their internet/new media consultant is based in Nashville, TN. They have presented 5 live events in Bristol, CT and Wallingford, CT dating back to November, 2004. On July 8, 2006, MXW presented their most recent mega-event, InterPromotional Incident, headlined by a main event in which Low Ki, representing Pro Wrestling NOAH attained a clean, yet controversial victory over "Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels, who represented Pro Wrestling ZERO1-MAX. The match was the latest in the Gaijin Battle series, an original MXW concept which spotlights American combatants who wrestle for different Japanese wrestling organizations in competition against one another. With Low Ki's victory, the series between the two Japanese promotions is now tied at one fall a piece.

Their sixth and next live event, GOLDEN QUEST, will emanate from Wallingford, CT on Friday, August 25, 2006. The event will focus on the Primary Stage of the MXW Championship Tournament, in which 32 contenders (every member of the MXW Top Twenty, plus 12 at-large bids) will compete for the honor of becoming the Inaugural MXW Champion. In the Primary Stage Featured Match main event, Low Ki will go into battle against fellow TNA X Division combatant Jay Lethal. According to TNA's official website, Lethal -- who has taken the division by storm and solidifed his presence amongst the top of the elite squadron of athletes within TNA -- is currently working diligently to prove himself with the goal of garnering a chance to face Low Ki (known in TNA as Senshi) for the X Division Title. On August 25, 2006 at MXW Golden Quest, Lethal hopes to administer the Lethal Injection en route to advancing to the Supreme Sixteen.

On June 15, 2006, the company announced the forthcoming July 6 debut of their weekly 30-minute TV program, MXW Momentum, available via cable in Waterbury, Connecticut. On July 12, it was announced that starting with the following week's episode, the program would also be available to all cable subscribers in Wallingford, Connecticut. At present, MXW Momentum is available to approximately 58,000 cable television households.
