The Allied Independent Wrestling Federations (AIWF) is a professional wrestling governing body in the United States. Originally as American Independent Wrestling Federation, the promotion was deemed more hardcore than Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) by Pro Wrestling Illustrated and ran shows throughout North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee and West Virginia. Over the years the AIWF changed into a sanctioning body for professional wrestling companies similar to the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA).[1][2][3][4]

Members

Allied Independent Wrestling Federations currently has members in the United States, Canada, England and Australia.[5]
