Single elimination tournament for light heavyweight wrestlers
Light Heavyweight World Cup is an annual professional wrestling single elimination tournament produced by German Wrestling Federation (GWF). The tournament features light heavyweight wrestlers from all over the world, who represent their respective nations in the tournament. The tournament format is similar to Revolution Pro Wrestling's British J-Cup, consisting of singles matches which wrestlers win to qualify to the final, a four-way elimination match.[1]
The first tournament was held in 2018 and has been held each year since then, with the exception of 2021, when traveling was restricted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, preventing international participation in the tournament.[2]
