Crowning Champions
After a controversial BCW-TNG Tag Team Title match at "BCW-TNG Pick Your Poison 2010," the decision was made to abandon the titles and create SCBYWA Tag Team Titles in their stead. So it was decided that at SCBYWA Blaze of Glory 2010 The Power Trip (Joshua Chilton & Sean Van) would face AZW's Bull McBride & Boss to crown the first champions. At the event, The Power Trip would win the titles.
The Power Trip
Since winning the SCBYWA Tag Team Championships, Sean and Joshua have been on a mission to bring tag team wrestling back to backyard wrestling in South Carolina. The Power Trip successfully defended their titles at UWO XIII - May Day II against Gimmick Infringement. They would go on to defend their belts against Bad Company at EMW Hardcore Heaven also. The Power Trip would give Gimmick Infringement a rematch at SCBYWA Chaos Theory 2010 in a T6 Match. The stipulation was that it was GI's last shot at the title belts. Sean Van & Joshua Chilton would retain their titles again after the match was restarted due to Tray & Josh simultaneously going through the table. One last chance was granted to Trey and Patent for the Tag Titles after they kidnapped the Commissioner of the SCBYWA, Paul Pearl, and threatened his life. At SCBYWA WrestleFest II (2010), the two teams faced off one last time in a 3 Stages of Hell Match. It was in this contest that Gimmick Infringement defeated The Power Trip to win the gold.
Gimmick Infringement
Tray D. Marks & Patent won the tag gold at the biggest event of the year for the SCBYWA. In doing so, they fulfilled a 5 month pursuit of those belts. 19 days later they would be stripped of the titles by Sean Van when UWO withdrew from the SCBYWA. Van crowned himself and Eric Thomspon as the new SCBYWA Tag Team Champions and declared that the record book shall show that Thompson & Van defeated Gimmick Infringement in the middle of the ring... a match that never took place.
The Show Stoppers
The Prestige members, Sean Van & Eric Thompson, would be crowned champions at NAX Wicked Nightmare. This made Sean & Eric the first ever 2 time SCBYWA title holders of any kind. Their first big challengers for the title belts would be, The Commission's, Mike Jones & Aaron McClure. After a loss to fellow Commission members, Sean Storm & Reverend Revis, Jones & McClure smelled blood. In the two teams first encounter The Show Stoppers would defeated Mike & Aaron at SCW Evolution 2011 to retain the titles.
Going Independent
On December 1, 2010, the SCBYWA was shut down by the SC LLR. The result was SCW, the same promotion only renamed a legally licensed.
