The World Wrestling All-Stars (WWA) was one of the professional wrestling promotions to come into existence after the fall of Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) and World Championship Wrestling (WCW). They focused on signing the wrestlers that did not get signed by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) after the WWF/WCW merger, and many popular former WWF and WCW wrestlers signed, including Jeff Jarrett, Road Dogg, Lenny Lane, Lodi, Psicosis, Juventud Guerrera, Scott Steiner, Stevie Ray and Disco Inferno. They also brought in relatively unknown wrestlers such as Shark Boy, Nathan Jones, and Trinity.
A few months went by, with little success. Eventually, Scott Steiner and Nathan Jones were signed by the WWE for a short stint. In 2003, WWA folded. Many of the other wrestlers, such as Jeff Jarrett, Sting, Shark Boy and Road Dogg are now employed by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).
Sting was their last champion. He lost the title in a unification match with National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) World Champion Jeff Jarrett on May 25, 2003 in Auckland, New Zealand.
