|| The Story So Far ||
Elysium was founded in late summer 2017 by retired professional wrestler Kelly Godless. Having served as the authority for his father's promotion in the past Godless possesses the ability to run a successful, global promotion. With the passion and desire to forge his own legacy Godless formed Elysium Professional Wrestling with the hopes of presenting the kind of wrestling that inspired him to travel the world.
In late 2017 Godless was kidnapped and his brother Finale took control of the company. After failing to produce an episode of their biweekly television show "Frontline" in April of 2018 Elysium's television contract was suspended and the company went dormant.
In September of 2018 it was announced that Elysium would return with their 2nd annual "Wideawake" event in which eight competitors would compete in a one night tournament for the World Championship.
In December of 2018 Finale was incarcerated and Ramona Holiday took the reigns of the company. Due to financial issues, Holiday was forced to partner Elysium with a company called Shure Shot Enterprises and they assisted in rebranding the company.
Though, the financial issues continued, and the leadership of Shure Shot was prepared to liquidate assets and close up shop at Elysium were it not for the intervention of Elysium's inaugural World Champion, Erik Holland, who struck a deal to purchase 100% of Elysium's controlling assets.
Everyone who works for Elysium, from the production crew, to the personalities, to the wrestlers must enter the company with the knowledge that Elysium is meant to showcase the most unique and interesting competitors that exist in this business. Established names with inflated egos need not apply - Elysium is not the place for you.
|| The Sanctum ||
Elysium runs their Frontline and Glitches events out of "The Sanctum Warehouse" in the port lands area of Toronto, Ontario. The complex is completely owned by Elysium and it houses not only the ring/audience area but also a modest bar/lounge area and the company's corporate offices.

Elysium has all of the bells and whistles. Godless made a small fortune wrestling all over the world and he has put a great deal of that wealth into Elysium. We have elaborate lighting, pyro, a custom made stage -- when it comes to making Elysium a state of the art wrestling promotion we spared no expense.
This continues with Erik Holland, whose finances from being a multiple time champion and competing all over the globe are more than enough to sustain Elysium operations.
Frontline is our flagship program that is shown on the Battleground Network. Frontline showcases the main roster of Elysium and it's three main championships; the World, the Hybrid, and the Tag Team titles, as well as the hardcore action of the Iron Championship and the mayhem of the Triad titles.
|| Glitches ||
With the recent takeover of Elysium by Erik Holland, Glitches has evolved into the equivalent show of Frontline. Glitches only seems to appear when necessary to advance the story of Elysium or when disputes over matches and championships must be settled. Glitches is no longer a seperate brand.
