Here are the top British wrestling promotions
RevPro Wrestling
Founded in 2012, Revolution Pro Wrestling is one of the biggest wrestling companies in the UK. Their partnership with NJPW has helped them grow popular with fans in Great Britain, as did Will Ospreay’s world title run in the company.
Progress
Founded in 2011 and inspired by NJPW’s “strong-style” of wrestling, Progress became synonymous with the indie wrestling boom in the mid 2010s, impressing Triple H enough to partner with the WWE, although that ended in 2023.
Insane Championship Wrestling
Grado and Drew McIntyre helped a regional Scottish promotion grow to being the biggest promotion in Britain at one point, selling out the Hydro Arena in Glasgow multiple times for their biggest shows, and also partnered with WWE in recent years.
World of Sport Wrestling (2018)
ITV revived wrestling on TV with an attempt to bring back the “World of Sport” brand in 2018. This came after multiple attempts to revive the show, although it was cancelled after one series. A 2024 series is reportedly in the works.
Wrestling Entertainment Series
In 2022, WWE’s Akam and Razar (Authors of Pain) tried to launch a new promotion with a show set in the 10,000 seater arena in Nottingham. The whole thing was a scam, and the event was cancelled as wrestlers dropped out.
Attack! Pro Wrestling
Founded in 2012, Revolution Pro Wrestling is one of the biggest wrestling companies in the UK. Their partnership with NJPW has helped them grow popular with fans in Great Britain, as did Will Ospreay’s world title run in the company.
