URWL Supercard Chronology
UNW Spring Breakdown 2003 Asphyxiation 2007 Discontent 2007

URWL Asphyxiation 2007 was a 2007 Unnecessary Roughness Wrestling League supercard, the first of the league's "YouTube era". The event was held at Copps Coliseum in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada in July 2007. The official theme song for the event was "Sick, Sick, Sick" by Queens of the Stone Age.

Background[]

Asphyxiation was originally scheduled to be a supercard in June 2003, part of the URWL's text-based era. However, the league closed before the supercard aired. When the URWL reopened in late 2006, CEO Goldash007 decided to name the newly-relaunched league's first supercard Asphyxiation 2007 not only as a tribute to what had never happened but as a means of getting back to where the league left off.
