Wrestling Rings

What are wrestling rings?

Wrestling rings, often called the “squared circle,” are purpose-built for both professional wrestling events and training. Typically measuring around 20 feet on each side, constructed with a steel frame and wooden planks, topped with foam padding and a durable canvas mat. Three tensioned ropes on each side, connected by padded turnbuckles, provide both safety and performance during matches. This design ensures durability, shock absorption, and a professional appearance for televised events and live audiences.

These rings are widely used in major wrestling promotions, independent circuits, and training facilities. Smaller versions, such as 18-foot or 16-foot rings, are common in schools and local wrestling clubs, offering a similar experience in more compact spaces. Built to withstand the high-impact nature of the sport, wrestling rings are essential for delivering the authentic feel and safety standards that wrestlers and fans expect.
