Put together by local wrestling gym and school, Grapple MAX Dojo, this event will have you pin(n)ing for more
We’ve told you before that there’s a simmering phenomenon of professional wrestling in Singapore, but if you still don’t believe us, this is one fight club you should see for yourself.
Unlike what you might’ve heard from Tyler Durden, this is a fight club you can talk about. Run by wrestling school, Grapple MAX Dojo, this pop-up ‘fight’ event salutes the spirit of athletes like The Rock and Shawn “The Heartbreak Kid” Michaels with charismatic stunts and manoeuvres performed right in front of you.
What’s even more peculiar? The Pro Wrestling Fight Club is occupying the space of somewhere you’d least expect. Tossing aside the stiff traditions of a ring, this event – starring wrestlers from Singapore and Malaysia – takes over the confines of Chinatown’s hip rooftop bar, Lepark. That means you can fuel up with a bevvie beforehand, and cheer for these gung-ho daredevils in what’s gonna be a highly intense and interactive, gladiatorial experience.
And if you’re even keen on being a wrestler yourself – it’s a fun and unique form of fitness – you can even sign up for the seminar package where you’ll be given an insightful (and safe) crash course by Grapple MAX Dojo’s trainers.
Pro Wrestling FIGHT CLUB by Grapple MAX Dojo, 24 June, 4pm-7pm, Lepark, Level 6, People’s Park Complex, Singapore 059108. Tickets at $30 (advance), $40 (door) and $50 (incl. training seminar) – all tickets come with one house pour – through this booking website.
