Vietnam Pro Wrestling Spring Bash – Results

Report Date: 15 March 2026

Vietnam Pro Wrestling held Spring Bash on March 14 from VAIB Studios, presenting its first major show of 2026. The event combined rising local talent with established names while also welcoming a distinguished guest in attendance, New Japan Pro Wrestling chairman Naoki Sugabayashi. The night also featured a major surprise with the debut of international champion Shivam, whose arrival immediately shook up the tag team division.

Meteor Kid vs An D

The show quickly got underway as Xavier Patricks introduced the opening contest. This was the first of three matches pitting “old school” against “new school”, as Meteor Kid faced An D in what the youngster had described as his dream match.

The storyline here is largely grounded in reality. An D is one of the most respected veterans in the VPW locker room, making him a natural benchmark opponent for the newer generation.

The match played to that contrast. An D focused on a measured, grounded approach while Meteor Kid relied on speed and athleticism. As the contest progressed, An D began landing increasingly fierce kicks and strikes that echoed across the Dong Nai River and sent Meteor Kid reeling.

The finish came after An D missed Treasure Impact. A rapid exchange of roll-ups followed before Meteor Kid used his powerful legs to trap the veteran on the mat and secure the three count. After the bell, An D showed respect to his opponent with a handshake.

Winner: Meteor Kid

This was one of the standout matches of the night and an excellent showcase for both wrestlers. After spending much of his rookie year working tag matches and rumbles, Meteor Kid looked far more confident here and demonstrated clear potential as a future singles star.

An D also appeared to be in his best form since returning last year. With a stronger physique and sharper offense, it feels likely that he will soon be moving back up the card.

Xiumin Long vs Ronnie El Rapido

The battle between masked veteran Xiumin Long and rookie high-flier Ronnie El Rapido followed next. Unsurprisingly, the match quickly escalated into a fast-paced aerial contest with both men taking to the skies.

After Ronnie launched himself into a suicide dive, it briefly appeared that Xiumin had injured his shoulder. However, the veteran revealed it to be a ruse that allowed him to regain control of the match.

Ronnie later fired up in dramatic fashion, partially removing the front of his mask to reveal snarling determination as he pressed the attack. Despite the surge, Xiumin ultimately secured victory with a decisive package piledriver.

Winner: Xiumin Long

The match maintained the strong momentum established by the opener. Both wrestlers came out looking credible, and Ronnie in particular continues to grow into his role within the VPW roster. The encounter also felt like it left room for a well-received rematch in the future.

The Classic Night vs Juicy Meat

Fan reactions reached a peak ahead of this tag team encounter, which gave Miles Karu an opportunity to avenge his Juicy Boyz loss to Billy and Bobby last June. The Classic Night received their usual standing ovation upon entering the arena.

The challengers seized control early by dragging the action into a ringside brawl. Da Butcherman soon made a statement by cutting Billy off with an impressive springboard spear.

Billy then shifted into the familiar babyface-in-peril role that he performs so effectively, rallying the crowd until Bobby finally received the hot tag to a huge reaction. With the momentum now balanced, the match escalated quickly. Even after Karu launched a suicide dive to the outside, it was one of Bobby’s signature bodyslams that ultimately secured the victory.

Winners: The Classic Night

Before the winners could celebrate, an unknown figure rushed into the ring and attacked both men.

The attacker was soon revealed as IWA World and MYPW SEA Champion Shivam, making his VPW debut.

Shivam grabbed the microphone and launched into a harsh critique of Vietnam Pro Wrestling, claiming that while other international wrestlers had repeatedly been invited to compete, he had been continually overlooked by the promotion.

Moments later Juicy Meat joined him at ringside, forming an alliance with the newcomer. The trio issued a challenge for Saigon Slam: Shivam, Miles Karu and Da Butcherman against The Classic Night and a partner of their choosing.

The match itself was another excellent outing from these four wrestlers, who have developed strong chemistry together over the past year. Karu and Butcherman’s new gear also gave both men a noticeably upgraded presentation.

Shivam’s arrival immediately expands the possibilities for VPW’s international collaborations and could open the door for further talent exchanges with Thailand’s SETUP promotion.

Choose Your Fate Five-Way

Khoa Truong vs Slugshot Henry vs Dokuga vs Kira vs Damien Wolfe

After the interval, the show resumed with the “Choose Your Fate” five-way match featuring Khoa Truong, Slugshot Henry, Dokuga, Kira and Damien Wolfe.

Far from a simple filler bout, the match quickly erupted into a chaotic brawl that pulled the audience straight back into the action.

The finish provided one of the most creative moments of the evening. As Dokuga prepared to use his mist attack, Khoa anticipated it and delivered a theatrical kiss reminiscent of Jake De Leon’s famous mist-stealing spot, briefly capturing the mist himself. Before he could capitalize, however, Kira struck him, causing Khoa to accidentally spit the mist into the eyes of his partner Henry.

In the confusion that followed, Khoa delivered a quick Spirit Breaker to Dokuga and secured the pinfall, earning the right to choose a future stipulation.

Winner: Khoa Truong

Henry left the match wiping mist from his eyes while staring down his tag partner, adding further tension to their ongoing storyline.

KPY vs Jimmy AG

The final “proving ground” match of the night saw rapper KPY face movie star Jimmy AG.

Compared to the earlier bouts, this contest carried more of a heavyweight feel, providing a welcome shift in pacing before the main event. The wrestlers allowed the action to build gradually, letting the audience reactions grow as the match progressed.

The contest ended when KPY connected with the Heatspitta to secure the victory.

Winner: KPY

VPW Tag Team Championships

The Rocky Horror Show (The British Horror & Rocky Huynh) w/ Princess Death
vs
Ares & Hy Draco w/ Phuong Nam

Even before the match began, the entrances created a sense of occasion. Ares received particular attention with a new entrance package that began live from the dressing room and showcased an updated robe.

Once underway the match quickly spilled into a chaotic ringside brawl. Each competitor played their role well. Ares acted as the powerhouse, throwing around both Rocky Huynh and The British Horror, while Hy Draco brought his trademark speed and aerial offense to every corner of the ring.

Weapons eventually became involved, including metal trays. Ares managed to deliver a top-rope Stormbreaker to The British Horror, but a miscommunication between Ares and Hy Draco left the challengers exposed. The Rocky Horror Show capitalized, delivering The Devil’s Drop to retain the championships.

Winners: The Rocky Horror Show

After the bell the champions attempted another attack, but the babyfaces fought them off and stood tall to close the show.

The match delivered a chaotic and memorable main event that will likely receive a “Must Watch” rating once the full video is released.

It also marked Ares’ first loss to a foreign opponent in The British Horror, albeit with an asterisk given Horror’s status as a full-time VPW roster member.

The long-promised triple threat tag title match still appears to be on the horizon, though it may be held for a larger upcoming event.

Princess Death and Phuong Nam both played important roles at ringside. Their work as managers continues to enhance the presentation of VPW’s top programs.

Before the show concluded, New Japan Pro Wrestling chairman Naoki Sugabayashi was introduced to the crowd, confirming that the company had an international guest observing the event.

Overall, Spring Bash served as a strong opening statement for VPW’s 2026 calendar. The event delivered several standout matches, advanced ongoing storylines, and introduced new international intrigue with Shivam’s debut. With New Japan Pro Wrestling leadership in attendance and the next event already on the horizon, the promotion appears to be building significant momentum.

Possible Matches Teased for Saigon Slam

  • The Classic Night & ??? (possibly Hy Draco) vs Real Juicy Meat (Miles Karu, Da Butcherman, Shivam)

  • Ares vs The British Horror vs Rocky Huynh

  • August Artois was also reportedly in attendance.
