The Women's Wrestling Hall of Fame (WWHOF) is a hall of fame which honors women who have performed in both women's professional wrestling and women's amateur wrestling.

History

The Hall of Fame was founded in 2022 by Angel Orsini, Christopher Annino, Gary Wolfe and Sue Green.[1] It started as an offshoot of a documentary Orsani and director Annino have been making about women's professional wrestling titled Circle of Champions.[2]

2023's inaugural class were honored during a ceremony at 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on December 17, 2022.[3] Jazz and Madusa received their inductions in person, and Gangrel accepted Luna Vachon's posthumous award on her behalf.[4] 86-year old Beverly Shade received her induction remotely, just months before her death.[5] Co-founder Christopher Annino has expressed a desire to see Donna Christanello, Sue Green and Toni Rose inducted on a broadcast of NWA Powerrr because of their history with the National Wrestling Alliance.[6]
