New Age Wrestling (N.A.W) is a professional wrestling company based in Melbourne formed in July 2004 as RCK Promotions for two shows before changing it's name to New Age Wrestling. From 2006 to 2009 it was known as New Aussie Wrestling before a change of ownership caused a reversion back to New Age Wrestling. It is seen by other Melbourne promotions as a poor cousin, despite a strong 2011 - primarily caused by questionable practices and booking, particularly in 2013.
Since its inception, New Age Wrestling has promoted events primarily out of the Maltese Cultural Centre in Albion, Victoria, Australia. But it has held shows in the Melbourne suburbs of Dingley, St Albans, Melton, Sunbury and Mulgrave, as well as traveling to Geelong, Ballarat and on two occasions to Hobart in Tasmania.
In 2008, New Age Wrestling wrestlers made two appearances on Australia's Got Talent, passing the audition stage but not getting past the next stage
