Welcome to Warrior Pro Wrestling!
Brief History:
In 2016, World Federation of Wrestling (WFoW) closed its doors after longtime owner, Mack Vincent, passed away. In the wake of its closure, the companies most popular star and legend from the promotions heyday in the mid 80’s, Tank McDaniel, started gathering investors to start up his own wrestling promotion. The result- Warrior Pro Wrestling. Warrior Pro (WPW) aims to be an American style promotion that over time will incorporate a variety of styles and match types from all over the world. Tank’s wrestling career took him around the world, winning championships in both the states (WFoW) and Japan (Dragon Fire Wrestling). Warrior Pro has ambitions to become a global wrestling organization that showcases the best wrestlers from around the world.
Warrior Pro also owns its own wrestling school, Warrior Training Grounds. This gym will allows signed wrestlers a place to train and hone their craft, a place for our “Young Gun” rookies to learn and gain extra experience, and work as a tryout center for potential new athletes. The location of the gym is right next to Pioneer Hall.
WPW has signed WFoW legend Austin Baron to act as head trainer for the school. Austin is a two time WFoW heavyweight champion and former tag team partner (and 1x tag team champion) of owner Tank McDaniel. Austin, father to current Warrior Pro wrestler Vic Baron, brings a wealth of training experience, running the Baron family wrestling school for 12 years now.
Location:
Warrior Pro Wrestling’s home is in San Jose, California. Most house shows will take place at the newly opened Gorilla Hall in downtown San Jose.
For bigger shows, Warrior Pro will run in the famed Moffett Field Arena.
Format:
Warrior Pro will probably always contain a small roster compared to other promotions in this space. Most of the talent will be “home grown” however the hope is there is also a regular rotation of talent from outside promotions.
Shows will be monthly and streamed live, with smaller house shows pre-taped and running when needed and time permitting. Warrior Pro’s Twitch channel can be found HERE
WPW currently has three titles: World, Intercontinental, and Tag.
