WELCOME!

What if pro wrestling were real?

Back in the early 20th century it was -- real athletes wrestling for real. No silly costumes. No scripts. No storylines. No staged outcomes.

It was wildly popular back then... and it will be again today, thanks to Real Pro Wrestling!

Real Pro Wrestling is the brainchild of former amateur wrestlers Matt Case and Toby Willis. They wanted to provide great amateur wrestlers the opportunity to compete FOR REAL... for REAL MONEY!

It's REAL WRESTLING! The rules are very much like what you see in high school or college or Olympics, with similar strategy and scoring. There are some differences, like the raised circular mat with moat... and the competitors wear trunks, not singlets.

Minnesota's 55kg/121 lb Tim Dernlan throwing an opponent in a drilling session... and Iowa Stalker heavyweight Wes Hand.
