Capital City Championship Combat (C*4), an Ottawa-based independent professional wrestling promotion, has joined the content library of the MyAEW streaming service. The partnership introduces the promotion to a global audience through the release of a curated compilation titled MIXTAPE #1, which highlights notable matches featuring athletes currently signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW) or those with prior ties to the organization.
The addition of C*4 marks a continued expansion of the MyAEW streaming platform, which serves as a digital archive for various independent wrestling promotions. According to the platform’s official announcement, C*4 joins a roster of previously integrated independent entities, including Limitless Wrestling, PRODUCE, and 1FW, all of which now have dedicated spotlights on the service.

Focus on Featured Talent and Historical Bouts
The MIXTAPE #1 compilation focuses on showcasing the history of C*4 by highlighting performances from talent who have since achieved prominence on larger stages. Among the featured athletes in the initial release are Josh Alexander, The Blade, Danhausen, Evil Uno, and “Speedball” Mike Bailey. These athletes represent a cross-section of the Canadian and international independent wrestling scene that C*4 has cultivated since its inception.
The matches selected for the compilation span several years of the promotion’s activity. Key entries include a January 2020 encounter between Josh Alexander and Junior Benito, as well as a September 2019 four-way contest involving The Blade, Alex Zayne, Blake Christian, and Benjamin Carter (billed as blanchardstomp). Additionally, the collection features a November 2019 bout between Tony Deppen and Danhausen, alongside a tag team match featuring Evil Uno and Stu Grayson.
Strategic Expansion of the Independent Wrestling Archive
The integration of independent promotions into the MyAEW ecosystem provides a formalized distribution channel for regional wrestling content. By incorporating archives from organizations like C*4, the streaming service effectively bridges the gap between grassroots independent wrestling and the mainstream industry. This strategy mirrors the practices of other major wrestling platforms that maintain libraries of historic and regional footage to provide historical context for current performers.
For independent promotions, this partnership offers increased visibility and access to a broader subscriber base that may not otherwise encounter regional Canadian wrestling. The model relies on the curation of “mixtapes,” allowing the service to present high-value matches without requiring the immediate upload of entire event catalogs. This approach prioritizes discoverability, focusing on individual performers who have become recognizable figures in modern professional wrestling.
What This Means for Regional Promotions
The inclusion of C*4 indicates that the streaming service is prioritizing the diversification of its library through partnerships with established regional entities. As the platform continues to grow, these collaborations serve as a repository for the development of wrestling talent. According to industry tracking, the inclusion of independent archives is often used to build brand loyalty among fans of specific regional scenes while providing a pathway for talent to be viewed by a wider audience.
Fans looking for updates regarding future additions to the MyAEW library can monitor official social media channels for the service. As of mid-June 2026, the service has not announced the specific release schedule for subsequent volumes of the C*4 MIXTAPE series or further additions from other independent organizations.
