ELEVEN YEARS. 500+ SHOWS. WE ARE OSW.
On the face of it, Old School Wrestling is a 500-word promo fantasy wrestling federation.
But that has never been the whole story.
THIS IS
WHAT WE ARE.
OSW is a group of people who turn up for each other. For more than a decade, we have produced show after show with the same promise: do the work, hit the deadline, and make something everybody else can enjoy.
We are here because we love wrestling. We love fantasy wrestling. And we still love the part of wrestling that asks you to believe.
WE BELIEVE
THE GIMMICK.
When we say old school, we do not mean recreating the territories. We mean gimmicks. Characters. Big ideas played completely straight.
In OSW, your character is not somebody who goes home after the show and takes off the makeup. They are a real person living a real life inside the universe we have built together. Think Lucha Underground. Think your favourite television drama. We live in kayfabe because wrestling was never more fun than when we believed it.
THREE VOLUMES.
ONE UNIVERSE.
OSW has grown through distinct Volumes, each broken into seasons and each telling a larger story. Every era has changed the world, introduced new faces and left scars for the next one to inherit.
The names change. The stories move forward. The principle does not: everything belongs to the same living OSW universe.
ONE PROMO.
ALL IN.
Joining OSW is simple. Commit.
When you are booked, you write one promo of no more than 500 words. Bring your character. Make the match matter. Give your opponent something worth answering.
Behind the scenes, our Creative team builds the angles and our Match Writing team brings the fights to life. Want to help with either? You can. The door is open, and the help is always appreciated.
WORDS
MAX
FEDERATION?
FAMILY.
That is the part a rulebook cannot really explain. OSW is a fed, but it is also a family.
We write together, play games together, argue about wrestling together, support each other and keep showing up. Hundreds of shows later, that is still the reason this place exists.
Come for the wrestling. Stay because you became part of it.
