Grand Pro Wrestling (formerly Garage Pro Wrestling) or GPW is a British professional wrestling promotion based in the North West of England.
The promotion was founded in February 2003 by former British wrestler "The Middleman" Lee Butler. His association with the promotion was ended in March 2004, Butler passed away in 2017 following a battle with cancer.
The first event took place at the Monaco Ballroom, Hindley in July 2003. Events have been run regularly at the same venue ever since.
Since January 2005, GPW has been run by British wrestler Johnnie Brannigan. However, the name 'Richard Noble' was used as the public-facing name up until Brannigan went public with his role in the company in April 2012.
The promotion is recognised for building much of its own stars through its training school, whilst using a mixture of more recognised British talent and lesser-known names.
