RAF 09 will take place on Saturday, May 30, 2026! You can catch all the live Wrestling action at College Park Center in Arlington, Texas! A fresh take on combat sports brings an innovative format and competitive matchups to the forefront.
Real American Freestyle was founded in 2025 by Chad Bronstein, Terri Francis, and Hulk Hogan. Unlike most promotions on your list, this one is not MMA, striking, or jiu-jitsu based; it is a professional freestyle wrestling promotion built around paying wrestlers in a sport that historically offered limited professional earning pathways. Its concept is to package freestyle wrestling with stronger media framing, athlete storytelling, and commercial structure. That makes RAF one of the more unusual and genuinely niche entries on the list.
