A Pro Wrestling Episode is just that: an episode that takes place at a Professional Wrestling match or event. It is expected for this type of episode to appear on live action pro wrestling shows or fictional works whose premise revolves around pro wrestling. This becomes more distinct on a work that does not interact with (or even mention) wrestling before the episode. If the latter does occur, expect a series regular, Fake Guest Star or character who is a wrestling fan to get involved in a match somehow. There is also a good chance that someone will hint, if not say outright, that wrestling is fake, unless it's real. Usually averted with Indian leg wrestling, Greco-Roman, Sumo, Yağlı Güreş (Turkish oil wrestling) and Olympic/collegiate wrestling, because of those examples actually are real. Compare with Boxing Episode. |

The Space Ghost Coast to Coast episode "Pildriver" (Season 6, 1997). Although not taking place at a wrestling event, the episode was very wrestling-centric, mainly due to the fact that the episode guest-starred "Macho Man" Randy Savage as Space Ghost's retired wrestler grandfather, Leonard Ghostal. | |

Angel has the Vampire Detective visit a lucha libre event with a retired wrestler who is so disgusted with the shows he never sits through the whole thing. The show in fact regularly holds tributes to the guy as Angel witnesses but he never stays long enough to see them honor him. The rest of the plot is more of a homage to El Santo and his film career (spent fighting gangsters, robots, vampires and other monsters). | |

The Grimm episode "Silence of the Slams" is a luchador episode, with a Jobber who gets a Mask of Power made of the flayed face of a Wesen (with the magic ritual bringing out the Game Face), and finds that With Great Power Comes Great Insanity. The take is that wrestling is usually faked, but if a guy going off-script gets the crowd's approval, the management will roll with it. | |

Even though The Simpsons has referenced wrestling several times before (including having Bret Hart visit Mr. Burns' house), there was no full episode devoted to wrestling until "Gorgeous Grampa".

The conflict is Cyborg being fed up with their melodramatic Kayfabe compared to his knowledge of real, Greek wrestling. Eventually, he learns to appreciate the showmanship of pro wrestling while the other Titans learn to appreciate the disciplined technique of Greek wrestling. | |

When Cherry Blossom gets injured, they talk Cheerilee into taking over for her while she recovers. Rarity eventually joins her as her tag team partner. Before this, Cheerilee had issues with her sister and thought wrestling was barbaric, but then she learned that the wrestlers are good friends outside of Kayfabe and that Cherry Blossom does it to cheer up children. | |

Married... with Children had two. Both featured a Bundy from the main cast getting manhandled by wrestlers at the show. One did it for money and the other got himself booked by accident. One of the wrestlers was said to be Peg's cousin and was played by King Kong Bundy. King Kong Bundy made an appearance as himself. The Bundys and their neighbors the Rhoades (Steve and Marcy) were named for King Kong Bundy and Dusty Rhodes. This was something of a parody of Growing Pains, where the main family, the Seavers, and their neighbors, the Koosmans, were named for New York Mets baseball players Tom Seaver and Jerry Koosman. |

DuckTales (2017): The episode "The Rumble for Ragnarok!" is about a wrestling match taking place in Valhalla, between the teams of Jormungandr the World-Eating Serpent and Scrooge McDuck. Amusingly, Jormungandr plays the role of the Face and Scrooge plays the Heel as the "Millionaire Miser". The match is not scripted at all and has very high stakes, because Jormungandr's victory will bring Ragnarok and destroy Earth - which the Vikings of Valhalla see as a good thing, as everyone on Earth will die a glorious death. Apparently, in the universe of this show, mundane professional wrestling is an imitation of this old Viking custom. | |

Notably, it averts Pro Wrestling Is Real, as the luchadora in question notes that she's scripted to win the next fight and asks that Carmen not tell Zack so as not to ruin the magic for him (though the match goes Off the Rails when Coach Brunt infiltrates the ring using another wrestler's mask). | |

The Dick Van Dyke Show: at the end of an episode which is about the new song/dance craze The Twizzle (a combination of the Twist and the Sizzle), Sally comes in with a new version: the Twazzle, a combination of the Twizzle and wrestling. Done by "Classy" Freddie Blassie. | |

The Atomic Puppet episode "Brawl-For-All". To pay off collateral damage, Joey and AP host a charity wrestling match against a retired wrestling champion who soon shows that he hasn't lost his fighting spirit and puts up quite a fight for the superhero duo, thanks to his Hulk-like abilities. At the end, it's revealed AP and their foe had staged the entire battle, true to pro wrestling. | |

My Name Is Earl episode "B.L.O.W." centers around the titular wrestling promotion (a parody of GLOW) whom Joy's arch nemesis discovered to be half sister wrestles for as a baby face. Well, the promotion and the fact Joy is going to court and needs all the sympathetic family members she can find. Unfortunately her sympathetic sister isn't sympathetic to Joy. | |

One of the endgame story missions in Saints Row: The Third sees the Boss and Angel de la Muerte double-team the Dragon Ascendant Killbane in an over-the-top wrestling match aptly titled "Murder Brawl", complete with live commentary, ridiculous weapons, and massacring mooks with a chainsaw. The whole episode is justified in that Killbane's entire gang is composed of evil Masked Luchadors, so his power base can only be destroyed if he is defeated in a wrestling match by another pro wrestler (the original plan was for Angel to do this, but Killbane disables him, leaving it up to the Boss alone). | |

Walker, Texas Ranger has a few of these. Bonus points that some of those wrestlers are played by real-life wrestlers. Season 6's "Crusader" details the titular wrestler. Cody Conway (played by "Rowdy" Roddy Piper), coping with a life-threatening aneurysm should he ever try to wrestle again, all the while trying to mend his relationship with his son (played by Clay Jeter) and ex-wife (played by Linda Purl), who both need Ranger protection from her mob boss Bad Boss after she witnesses him commit a murder. The aneurysm nearly kills him when he tries to wrestle again, but he luckily pulls through. "Fight or Die" in Season 8 is mixed with mixed martial arts and has Walker, Gage and Trivette going undercover as inmates (the former two Rangers) and a guard (Trivette) in a corrupt Arkansas prison where its guards and a corrupt promoter are in charge of an underground prize-fighting racket where the inmates have to fight for their lives. Randy "Macho Man" Savage plays one of the inmates in this episode. Season 9's "The Avenging Angel" centers on the Rangers trying to build a case against the CEO of Broadcorp Industries, Frank Scanlon, for the murder of the titular wrestler (who was an old friend of Trivette's on the Dallas Cowboys) and multiple counts of extortion, while, at the same time, protecting said wrestler's manager, Eddie Ryan (played by Ernest Borgnine), fellow wrestlers and their families from any harm he has planned for them. Sydney and Gage go undercover as Eddie's new wrestlers to do just that, with their cover being a tag-team wrestling duo known as the Fox and the Fury, respectively. |

Among the first episodes of Jackie Chan Adventures was when Jackie and Jade travel to Mexico where Jackie is placed into a wrestling match (technically lucha libre) against El Toro Fuerte, a wrestler who had won all of his matches, who soundly defeats him...this is Jackie Chan we are talking about. Throughout the episode, it is common knowledge with Jade and the Dark Hand enforcers that wrestling is fake, much to Paco (El Toro's biggest fan) disbelief. They turn out to be correct when it is discovered that El Toro used the Ox Talisman, which gives one super strength, to win his wrestling matches. | |

The episode "The Blind Bandit" from Avatar: The Last Airbender has the Gaang check out an underground earthbending tournament in hopes of finding Aang someone to teach him the art. The tournament, "Earth Rumble VI", is a blatant Affectionate Parody of pro wrestling with a championship belt, a Foreign Wrestling Heel named Fire Nation Man, and an earthbender named The Boulder who speaks in the third person and is even voiced by a semi-retired pro wrestler. Half the plot has to do with the organizer and other "wrestlers" believing that the reigning champ (Toph) worked with Aang and threw a match so they could claim the prize money. | |

The Ren & Stimpy Show, episode "Mad Dog Hoek". It mocked the notion of "wrestling is fake" by having Ren and Stimpy get absolutely clobbered until the other side's watch alarm goes off, at which point one says "Hey, buddy! It's time to throw the fight!", at which point they promptly drop to the mat, leaving the barely conscious Ren and Stimpy to be declared the winners. | |

The A-Team: The 1985 episode "Body Slam" starred Hulk Hogan in a plot that made heavy use of Hogan's wrestling career (including footage from a 1984 match vs. Greg "the Hammer" Valentine, presented as legit), and featured several WWF faces as un-billed extras in a scene where they fight off that episode's villains. In the segment featuring the Hogan-Valentine match, the ending is altered to show the bad guys entering the arena to confront and assassinate Hogan (don't worry, they're stopped in time). | |

Steven Universe: In "Tiger Millionaire", Steven finds that Amethyst is involved in Beach City's local pro wrestling circuit as the notorious "Purple Puma" as a way to blow off steam. Steven gets in on the act, but takes his role as the eponymous Heel Tiger Millionaire too far when he snubs his lone fan Lars. In "Tiger Philanthropist", Amethyst gives up wrestling because, thanks to recent Character Development, she no longer needs it as an outlet for her frustration. Steven tries to retool his Tiger Millionaire persona as "Tiger Philanthropist" because of how much Lars enjoyed seeing him wrestle, but he finds Lars doesn't like the direction Steven's taken his wrestling persona. |

Simple Samosa: The first episode, titled "Sumo Momo", is about Samosa going with his friends to a wrestling match featuring Sumo Momo, his favorite professional wrestler. On their way to the match, Samosa makes up an entire story about how he once took down two Sumo Momos, which Dhokla and Jalebi immediately realize is fake but not Vada; when they make it to the arena, Samosa is surprised to hear the announcer say he's the challenger who's going up against Sumo Momo, who is directly provoked by Vada's cheering for Samosa into taking on the scared challenger. Sumo Momo then proceeds to clobber Samosa in multiple unique ways for 93 rounds in a row which is followed by him giving Samosa just enough of an injury to give the tip on his head a slight crack... a move that makes him so furious that he gives the wrestler a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown and is able to win the match. A later episode called "Moong Fu Samosa" follows up on the events of "Sumo Momo", this time with Samosa being challenged to a fight by Sumo Momo's friend Judo Momo. Samosa trains in a fictional martial art called "moong fu" to prepare and takes on the wrestler in the same arena as in "Sumo Momo". |

Ennui GO!: There was a pro wrestling arc during Volume 1, in which Izzy, her friends, and several amateur professional wrestlers had a tournament for the ownership of an incredibly rare VHS tape containing footage of a legendarily violent wrestling match. The "I Don't Wanna Wait" arc from volume 7 includes a B-plot in which Calixta, who'd joined the school's pro wrestling team earlier in the volume, got Cricket and Orion's help coming up with a wrestling persona so she could surprise Max with it. She ends up making her debut during the Ocean Festival as a Heel named "The Maiden in the Iron Mask". |

The Sonic X comic book features several issues revolving around Dr. Eggman's Masked Luchador persona "El Gran Gordo". Being Dr. Eggman and all, he cheats using his advanced technology, and Sonic tries to unmask him in a match—until he sees Chris Thorndyke, who idolizes both Sonic and El Gran Gordo, crying. In the end, Sonic loses to Eggman to preserve Kayfabe for Chris. While Eggman invented El Gran Gordo for Engineered Heroics, he slowly begins to enjoy his heroic persona and even wins a match clean. | |

In the Family Matters episode "Psycho Twins", Urkel and Carl take over for his former classmate and his tag team partner after they drink a potent soporific called "Snooze Juice" that Urkel carelessly left. Carl and Urkel (under the name the Psycho Twins hence the title) were facing real pro-wrestlers, The Bushwhackers, who offered to go easy on them. When Urkel revealed to them that Carl was a cop, the Bushwhackers (who hate cops) attacked them legitimately and started a fan-riot. Afterwards Carl and Urkel were heavily bandaged up. This has been inducted into WrestleCrap. | |

On the Honey, I Shrunk the Kids TV show, Bret and Owen Hart come to the Szalinskis' hometown and get hurt accidentally by Diane and Chief McKenna. They ask Wayne and the chief to wrestle in their place because wrestling promoters "aren't very understanding" on why a match can't take place. Not only did they beat their opponents (due to Wayne's strength-enhancing suit and an abrupt redition of "Pop Goes the Weasel") but it turns out the opponents were escaped convicts. Particularly notable in that at the time Bret and Owen were wrestling for Arch-Rival Promotions WCW and WWF respectively. They were in the mist of the Monday Night Wars and didn't want the wrestlers fraternizing in any kind of way. | |

Little House on the Prairie: In the 1979 episode "The King is Dead", the sport's early carny origins are exposed, although in the climactic scene the champion wrestler in this episode — an aging athlete suffering from heart failure — defeats a loudmouthed challenger using his own, legit athletic skills (putting the arrogant challenger in a legit bearhug and refusing to let go until the mouthy youngster passes out); he dies shortly after winning the match. The champion wrestler's manager, played by Ray Walston (of My Favorite Martian fame) is named Jimmy Hart ... the real name of a young musician who would become one of the best-known WWF personalities in the 1980s and 1990s. | |

"WTF", an episode of South Park, has the kids get really into wrestling after seeing Edge and John Cena. They don't really care about wrestling so much as for Chewing the Scenery and bathos. This is presented as better than the alternative, though — at the end of the episode, a real fight breaks out between all the boys. This causes everyone in the stands to get up and leave, as the clumsy, unchoreographed brawl is idiotic and boring. | |

One Mickey Mouse Comic Universe story had Mickey investigate a traveling group of wrestlers for thefts happening in the towns they visited, finding both confirmation that the matches are scripted... And discovering that the wrestlers also have legitimate fighting skills. The bit about the skills is made clearer when the culprit, a rather skinny cruiserweight, is unmasked and a dozen cops try and arrest him expecting no resistance only for him to kick their collective asses until the other wrestlers (that Mickey had in the next room just in case) join the frame. | |

A Second Chance, with its serialized nature, has two examples, both featuring Lunatic Lynn. While struggling to deal with her first crush, Lynn tries to distract herself by challenging Ryan to a friendly wrestling match and gives him his own, skeleton-themed persona, called Ravage Ryan. It starts off well enough, until Lynn’s feelings bubble up again, making her snap in frustration and beat the snot out of him, before running off. Ryan follows her and they talk things out, leading to both admitting their feeling for each other, then going back to finish their match, with the winner being left ambiguous. Ryan deems it their first date. The sibling duel arc starts off with Lynn issuing the first challenge (a wrestling match), and despite being urged by her teammates to pick Lola (for an easy win), Lynn chooses Lori after being called a coward by the latter. Lori is given a pink, flower-themed mask and names herself Chica Grande (thinking it means “big sister�), allowing Lynn to taunt her about it. Despite Lori being older and stronger, Lynn’s experience allows her to defeat and humiliate her opponent, thus earning her team their first victory. |

Episode 3 of Heaven's Lost Property season 2. The gang participates in another festival at the Satsukitane shrine, but the theme this year is professional wrestling. With a ten million yen prize, Tomoki debuts as Mask Du Pants. Using ecchi wrestling holds and finishing moves, Tomoki advances easily through the tournament, and battles the Angeloids in a tag team elimination match. The finals pit him against Mikako in an electrified steel cage match. He gets the advantage until another masked wrestler, implied to be Sohara, interferes and delivers a devastating backbreaker on him. Afterwards, Mikako awards the prize to Tomoki, but he must fight for the World Title against Judas, who was the shooting range man from the previous year. | |

In the Legends of Tomorrow episode "Lucha de Apuestas", Mona accidentally sends Koanane the Kaupe, a wolflike creature from Pacific Mythology, to sixties Mexico, where he becomes a Masked Luchador under the name El Lobo, and becomes immensely popular through the simple tactic of just winning all the time. The team has to get history back on track by convincing El Curo (a No Celebrities Were Harmed El Santo) to reclaim his title. | |

Charmed had an episode involving not a show but a professional wrestling training program. The witches were challenged to take on Booker T and Scott Steiner in order to get...something. The best wrestling was in a cameo by Buff Bagwell. | |

The Dial M for Monkey short "Rasslor" had a powerful alien challenging the heroes of Earth to wrestle him. If they all failed, the Earth would be destroyed. In the end, though he beat everyone, Rasslor was so impressed by Monkey being able to continue to challenge him even after he beat him that he conceded defeat. Rasslor was voiced by professional wrestler "Macho Man" Randy Savage. | |

Bull from Night Court ends up getting a job as a wrestler for a very short time. Unlike most examples it actually pretty much poked kayfabe in the eye. Notable scenes include 'You came this close to hitting me!' with a wrestler holding his hands half a metre apart, and later a wrestler going through an actual script wondering why Bull's match isn't going the way it should. | |
