The CWF Mid-Atlantic Rising Generation League Championship is a professional wrestlingsecondary championship in Carolina Wrestling Federation Mid-Atlantic (CWF Mid-Atlantic). It was first introduced by the promotion while an affiliate of the Frontier Wrestling Alliance (2001-2004) and later recognized by AWA Superstars (2005-2007). The title is traditionally defended in an annual tournament, typically held in December, although it has been occasionally defended in singles matches during the year. The title has switched hands in non-tournament bouts only twice, with the majority of the title changes occurring at the Rising Generation League Tournament. As of 2012, no champion has ever won the tournament more than once.
The inaugural champion was The Kamakazi Kid, who defeated Brass Munkey in a tournament final on December 12, 2002 to become the first FWA-Carolinas Rising Generation League Champion. The Kamakazi Kid and Ultra Dragon both hold the record for longest title reign at 378 days each. The Kamakazi Kid's first reign is considered one of the longest championship reigns in the promotion's history.[1] Roo D. Lewis' only reign was the shortest in the history of the title lasting only 76 days. Overall, there have been 12 reigns shared between 12 wrestlers, with two vacancies.
Ultra Dragon defeated El Toro Rojo in a tournament final; Dragon had also defeated Kid Justice earlier in the tournament. That same year, the title was renamed the AWA Mid-Atlantic Rising Generation League Championship when the promotion became an affiliate for AWA Superstars.
Roy Wilkins defeated Cecil Scott, Jerry Wayne, and Justin Flash in a tournament final; officials ordered a Four Corner match among the final participants when Ultra Dragon was unable to participate. On July 29, 2007, the title was renamed the CWF Mid-Atlantic Rising Generation League Championship when the promotion's membership in AWA Superstars is terminated.
The championship is vacated when Jason Miller is defeated by Aric Andrews in the opening rounds; Miller lost via countout when he was knocked unconscious by Ric Converse after hitting him with a steel chair.
This was an Eight Man Tag Team Match between Michael McAllister, Nick Richards, Teddy Ireland Jr. and Ulysse Demos vs. Arik Royal, Coach Gemini, Mace Li, and Roy Wilkins, where McAllister and Richards' CWF Mid-Atlantic Tag Team Title, Li's Rising Generation League Title and Wilkins' PWI International Heavyweight Title were also on the line. Demos pinned Li to win the title.
