This engaging and visually stunning 10x10-foot exhibit highlights the historic milestones and groundbreaking achievements that have shaped women’s wrestling. Updated to include the record-setting performances at the 2024 Paris Olympics and the NCAA’s official sanctioning of women’s wrestling, the display celebrates the trailblazers who have helped grow the sport on the national and international stage.

"We are excited to again share the history and impact of women’s wrestling with one of our sport’s largest and most enthusiastic fan bases," said Lee Roy Smith, Executive Director of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame. "This display celebrates the profound and positive impact that women’s wrestling has had on our sport, both in our country and worldwide."

The exhibit has already made stops at the 2025 Iowa Girls State Wrestling Championships and, for the second straight year, the National Collegiate Women’s Wrestling Championships. It was also featured at the 2024 NCAA DI Men’s Wrestling Championships in Kansas City.

For those who can’t make it to PHAN-X, the National Wrestling Hall of Fame’s museum in Stillwater, Oklahoma, proudly houses a permanent "Women In Wrestling" exhibit. This dynamic display pays tribute to the resilience, determination, and achievements of female wrestlers through memorabilia, historic imagery, and an interactive digital kiosk that chronicles pivotal moments in the sport’s history.

National Wrestling Hall of Fame & Museum

America’s shrine to the sport of wrestling, the National Wrestling Hall of Fame & Museum was founded as a nonprofit organization in 1976 to honor the sport of wrestling, preserve its history, recognize extraordinary individual achievements, and inspire future generations. The National Wrestling Hall of Fame has museums in Stillwater, Oklahoma, and Waterloo, Iowa. The Stillwater, Oklahoma, location reopened in June 2016 following a $3.8 million renovation and now features interactive exhibits and electronic kiosks, as well as the opportunity to watch NCAA Championship matches from the 1930s to present day. It also has the John T. Vaughan Hall of Honors where the greatest names in wrestling are recognized, including iconic granite plaques presented to Distinguished Members since the Hall of Fame opened in 1976. The museum has the largest collection of wrestling artifacts and memorabilia in the world, including the most collegiate and Olympic wrestling uniforms. Wrestling truly is for everyone and the diversity and accessibility of the sport continues to be highlighted through exhibits featuring females, African-Americans, Asian Americans, Native Americans, and Latino Americans. There is also a library featuring historical documents, including NCAA guides and results, as well as books on the sport. For more information about the Hall of Fame, please visit www.NWHOF.org.
