A combined effort of Cedric Walker, formerly of the Willamette Valley Raiders and members of the defunct East County Blackshirts, the Terminators were slated to be an independent team in 2010.

Taking on the Pro Developmental League Champion Tacoma Cobras, the Terminators looked respectable and then shocked the region. After being asked to join the Western Washington Football Association as a mid-season replacement team for the folded up Tacoma Warriors on May 16th, 2010, the 20-strong Terminators traveled to South King County and upset the undefeated Colts 46-33.  A defeat at the hands of eventual champion Seattle followed, but Northwest rebounded to win three in a row to close out the season.  In a controversial move, the WWFA announced the Terminators were not eligible for playoffs in favor of 3-8 Olympic Peninsula and 5-6 Renton Ravens, teams Northwest defeated 68-35 and 44-0 respectively. The Terminators would not get a rematch with Seattle who went on to smash the Ravens 54-8 in the WWFA Championship.  Two months later, the Terminators hosted the Colts and defeated the Vegas-bound team 26-16.

The end of the Terminators one season would lead to the formation of the Inner City Shine which would take the lineup spot in the WWFA vacated by Northwest.
