INTERNATIONAL FILIPINO ATHLETE JAKE DE LEON CROWNED AS NEW MWF PINOY WRESTLING CHAMPION

JAKE DE LEON MANILA WRESTLING FEDERATION

MANILA, September 20, 2022 – About three hundred Pinoy wrestling fans gathered at the PETA Theater Center last Sunday, September 11, to witness the crowning of “Mr. Philippine Wrestling” Jake De Leon as the new Manila Wrestling Federation (MWF) Pinoy Wrestling Champion. De Leon competed in the main event in a winning effort against two of the best performance athletes in the country – Fabio Makisig and Nigel San Jose

Jake De Leon is a multi-time wrestling champion and has held titles all over Southeast Asia. He has represented the country in numerous matches internationally, including Singapore, Thailand, Hong Kong and most notably in mainland China, where he participated in the WWE tryouts in 2019. A Philippine wrestling pioneer with almost a decade of in-ring experience, De Leon is one of the most respected and accomplished Filipino athletes in the genre.

Fabio Makisig and Nigel San Jose are expected to continue their Pinoy wrestling championship chase along with other members of the MWF roster, including the “Queen of Philippine Wrestling” Crystal, who was supposed to be featured alongside the three contenders last Sunday, but was pulled out of the event due to medical reasons. 

MWF’s Promising Prospects

MWF Road to Fate 2022 was packed with action throughout the evening, as other wrestling matches delivered star-making and head-turning performances from its top-notch athletes. Apart from the explosive main event, highlights of the event include:
