Gimmick: | Event held to commemorate the anniversary of PWG's first show in 2003 |
PWG Anniversary Show is an annual professional wrestling event produced by Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG). This event is usually held in July every year to commemorate the anniversary of PWG's debut event on July 26, 2003. There have been only two instances where the event has been held in other months than July. The 2013 edition was held in August while the 2021 edition was held in September.
It is not specifically called the "anniversary show" and has undergone many names. The most common name is Threemendous, which was first used to celebrate the promotion's third anniversary in 2006. PWG has used this name for its anniversary events on a few more occasions.
