The UCWF was founded by a promoter named Edward Garner after a wrestler who he managed was banned from several existing professional wrestling organizations because he possessed superhumanstrength. The UCWF is organized into "weight divisions"... not based on the wrestler's body weight, but on how much tonnage he can lift. The lowest division was phased out early in the Federation's history as not being "spectacular" enough. Numerous superhuman individuals have fought in the UCWF at one time or another, including both those recognized as superheroes and supervillains. Prominent members have included The Thing, Justice, and Demolition Man. The ranks of the UCWF have also included mutants, aliens, members of the Eternals and the Deviants, and many of the other varieties of super-strong beings from throughout the Marvel Universe. By far the most common participants, however, have been those who have undergone the strength-augmenting treatment of the Power Broker, a quasi-legal corporation run by Curtiss Jackson that uses the fruits of the many mad scientists populating the Marvel universe. The process is somewhat risky, however, and many wind up deformed or with severe health problems as a result. Also, the Power Broker organization is not without its corruption; at times, they not only augment their clients, but inject them with highly addictive drugs in order to control them. As a result, many of the Unlimited Class wrestlers also find themselves moonlighting as supervillains. The Power Broker has also played a significant role in the lives of other villains and heroes, particularly the U.S. Agent. After appointing a new general manager, Jim Jay McMayhew, UCWF is shown to become a more scripted sports entertainment version of itself much to the disappointment of former champion Ben Grimm.
