It's a new year and a new direction for New ERA of Wrestling! 2010 saw the promotion pulled apart by the internal struggle between its financier, EC Enterprises, and the man who created the promotion. After "closing" on September 25, 2010, former Vice President of EC Enterprises and New ERA President, Marcus LaRoque, began laying the foundation for his next foray into the wrestling world; a small, independent promotion based out of Boston, Massachusetts. However, only a few months after the court case that put the nail in New ERA's coffin, Marcus and his brother, Jean-Michel LaRoque, CEO of EC Enterprises, reconciled. The reconciliation not only brought the brothers closer than ever before, but it also meant that Marcus LaRoque would be reinstated as President of New ERA of Wrestling. The news was bittersweet. Marcus LaRoque would once again helm the promotion he ran from January 2004 to September 2010, but his operating budget would be slashed by 90%.

January 5, 2011. New ERA of Wrestling is reborn. This time, New ERA will operate in "seasons." Seasons are a grouping of six to eight shows that share a unified roster of talent. Wrestlers no longer sign long-term contracts that are freely terminable. Talent signs on for a single "season." Once the season ends, wrestlers have the option of signing on for another one, or walking away no questions asked. Fans that followed Tim Shipley's Just Wrestling will be familiar with the concept, called tours, with the difference being that "seasons" are held at the Agganis Arena at Boston University in Boston, Massachusetts as opposed to touring different cities and nations.

Also, four times a year New ERA of Wrestling will travel west to the DCU Center in Worcester, Massachusetts for "premier" events. These premier events (Destrucity, BattleBRAWL, International Intrigue, and BANNED in the US) will be broadcast live on ESENtv. Season shows are not broadcasted, but short summaries from Natalie Newman and Jason Tripp will be revealed via web on the New ERA website.

The last New ERA of Wrestling World Heavyweight champion, Shawn Hart, will retain his belt, now called the New ERA Championship. The Television and PRODIGY© Classic Xtreme championships will remain retired, however their respective last champions have been given bankable shots at the New ERA Championship. There are two ways to bank a shot at the New ERA Championship; win three consecutive matches, or be named Season MVP.

Cyberstrike will christen New ERA's Season 1 on January 29, 2011 - seven years to the day that New ERA first opened.
