On March 31, 2007, having won the regular season in the AISL with 25 points, the Twisters hosted the AISL Championship against the Rockford Thunder, who had earned 23 points on the season. The Twisters prevailed 11-5 over the Thunder and claimed the league championship. In 2007-08, the Twisters finished second in the AISL regular season standings with a 7-7 record. This led to a championship game rematch with the Rockford team, now known as the Rampage, which finished with a 12-1 regular season record. A few days before the championship game, the Twisters' coach resigned and several players quit the team, apparently because Twisters management had a dispute with the head coach, refused to pay for air travel for the team and required the players to drive to Rockford, Illinois instead. This led to a farcical championship game in which the Rampage destroyed the Twisters by an 18-5 score. The Twisters originally announced that they would go on hiatus for the 2008-09 season. However, they later announced that they will play in the new National Indoor Soccer League, replacing the Orlando Sharks.

On December 27, 2008 the Rockford Rampage defeated the Twisters 43-0, marking the largest scoring differential in professional indoor soccer history. The Twisters finished the season 1-17, with a point differential of -337, and the longest losing streak, 14 games. the Twisters also posted the lowest attended game in the National Indoor Soccer League, with 378 fans.
