In 2004, after years of hard work on the road in the hope of getting the product noticed, his idea for a wrestling show was picked up by the South African Broadcasting Corporation, and was given a national contract by SABC2.
The show, called WWP Thunderstrike, ran for a number of years on the channel, and was eventually put on hold due to in-house politics.
The CPW then moved on to India[dubious – discuss] to film a weekly show on Colors TV called 100% De Dana Dan, which established the WWP brand in the Middle East.
It also launched the War of Pride extravaganza in Chandigarh, India with a huge contingent of international superstars like Bobby Lashley, Brody Steele, Carlito, Mr Wrestling, and Ananzi.
Deon Potgieter, a renowned international author and producer, was responsible creatively for the name along with many of the original storylines and wrestler personas in WWP Thunderstrike's early years.
In the season finale, WWP main eventers took part in an eight-man tag team match with the kayfabe South African defenders taking on the foreign WDP faction.
The kayfabe plot of the show involved the Indian wrestlers being trapped in South Africa and stumbling upon an underground fight league headed by Mark Beale and WWP.
In highlights from the first season, Tornado became the 100% Heavyweight Champion on the second show and defended the championship for most of its run until being dethroned by the much larger competitor Goonga in the final episode.
The kayfabe storyline entailed that the factions adopted different cultural beliefs, with Def Faxion being based on modernity and materialism, while Alkebulan bore opposite traits, deeply rooted in myth and tradition.
In late 2006 with the premiere of the third season, the factions were dropped and focus was placed on traditional Heavyweight, Tag Team, Female and Cruiserweight divisions.
Despite the promotion being mainly a product produced for television since 2004, it regularly holds road show tours in various parts of the world such as India, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Nigeria, Greece, Venezuela, Paraguay, and in their home country of South Africa.
