Our Story

In 2015, Vietnam Pro Wrestling (VPW) began as a small group of passionate wrestling fans training in gyms and dance studios across Ho Chi Minh City, determined to bring professional wrestling to Vietnam. With limited resources and little outside support, they relied on sheer dedication and creativity to build a foundation for something greater. Their vision was clear: to create a platform for Vietnamese talent and introduce the country to the spectacle of live wrestling. What started as a grassroots movement has since grown into a thriving promotion, elevating Vietnam onto the global wrestling stage.

Starting with small, intimate shows, VPW has grown into a major live sports-entertainment brand, drawing hundreds of fans per event, reaching audiences around the world online, and building relationships across the international wrestling industry.

Today, VPW continues to represent Vietnam on the global wrestling stage while creating new opportunities for Vietnamese and Southeast Asian talent.
