Our story started in 2005, in an Amityville warehouse, with a small training program and the idea of building the future stars of professional wrestling.
In 2006, we held our first live event in Centereach at VFW Post 4927. A couple of years later, we ventured to the famed Deer Park Community Center, filled with wrestling history that included Ring of Honor, Evolve, DragonGate, and more. Our training camp moved to Deer Park as well, and international superstar Ricky Reyes would join the team as the head trainer.
We have the distinct honor of hosting the last sanctioned professional wrestling event in Deer Park as we parted ways with them at the end of 2014.
Six years later, the world stopped due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2020, the VFW post sold the building in Centereach and moved to a smaller facility in Port Jefferson Station. We would have to find a new home when we would return to action, and in 2021 we did just that. Victory Pro Wrestling hosted our first event in the post-COVID era, VPW Homecoming, in July of 2021.
Our fans returned with us as we started to fill the Sports Arena in St James on a monthly basis. In 2022, Victory Pro Wrestling crossed state lines for the first time ever and performed in beautiful Portland, Connecticut for a fundraising event in conjunction with the Town of Portland and the American Cancer Society.
We would move into our new home in Bay Shore, Pro Game Athletics, in the end of 2022. We are just minutes away from the hearts of Bay Shore and Islip, the Westfield South Shore Mall, and the Bay Shore Marina.
Victory Pro Wrestling has a rich history of professional wrestling on Long Island, performing in Centereach, Deer Park, Babylon, North Babylon, Islip, Ronkonkoma, Uniondale, Brooklyn, and Queens. We have celebrated hundreds of birthdays for our fans, raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for multiple charities, and continue to entertain the fans of Victory Pro Wrestling.

Victory Pro Wrestling’s training program hosted several wrestling seminars with Simon Dean, Samoa Joe, Scotty 2 Hotty, and more. International superstar Ricky Reyes, former ROH tag team champion, was our head trainer from 2008 until 2015. The training program is currently on hiatus.
