VPW Openweight Championship Match Set for Vietnamania

Announced earlier today, the founder of both Singapore Pro Wrestling and Real Global Threat, “The Statement” Andreuw Tang, will make his Vietnam Pro Wrestling debut after officially answering Phuong Nam’s open challenge.

Throughout his illustrious career in the Asia-Pacific region, Singapore’s first professional wrestler has faced an enormous roster of world-renowned opponents, including:

• Ho Ho Lun

• CIMA

• Pete Dunne

• Trent Seven

• Tajiri

• Jake De Leon

• Da Butcherman

• Carlo Cannon

• Kenny Omega

A world-travelled veteran, Tang has wrestled in ten countries, completing the full Southeast Asia circuit as well as competing in Hong Kong, Russia, Japan, Australia, and mainland China. His promotional credits include New Japan Pro Wrestling, Zero1, Dragon Gate, SETUP, Michinoku Pro, and Middle Kingdom Wrestling.

But there is one place he has never stepped into the ring—and that is Vietnam Pro Wrestling, standing across from the SEA Monster, Ares. The question now is simple: has The Statement completely lost his mind, or does he have a few tricks ready to spring on VPW’s most dominant champion?

Ares continues to decimate opponent after opponent from a global pool of challengers. To date, no foreign wrestler has managed to defeat The Unstoppable Force. Could Tang’s veteran cunning and technical precision finally break that streak?

Before closing, it’s worth highlighting what a fitting moment this is for VPW’s 10th anniversary. Without the early opportunity to visit, work, and learn from a Singapore Pro Wrestling card many years ago, Rocky and Sid may never have gained the confidence to grow VPW into what it is today.

So when you spot the man shouting “Eeeeeeyyyyyyyaaaaakkkkkkk!” and wearing a shiny suit jacket on just one arm, be sure to give him a quick cheer—though he’ll almost certainly make you regret it.

VPW Vietnamania is set to be Vietnam Pro Wrestling’s biggest spectacle of the year—an explosive showcase of homegrown heroes, international stars, and the unique energy that has defined a decade of VPW’s rise. Fans can expect high-stakes championship clashes, long-awaited debuts, and storylines that bring together the very best of Southeast Asia’s wrestling scene. As VPW celebrates its 10th anniversary, Vietnamania isn’t just another event; it’s the culmination of years of growth, passion, and relentless drive to put Vietnamese wrestling on the global map. If you’ve never experienced VPW live, this is the one show you absolutely cannot miss.
