Tenryu Project (Japanese:天龍プロジェクト,Hepburn:Tenryū Purojekuto)[1] is an independent Japaneseprofessional wrestling promotion. The promotion was founded by and is owned bypuroresu legendGenichiro Tenryu, who has owned and operated it since its creation in 2010.[2]
Tenryu Project is the successor toGenichiro Tenryu'sWAR promotion that ran from 1992 until 2000 as well as Tenryu'sSuper World of Sports (SWS) that existed from 1990 until 1992. Tenryu Project doesn't have wrestlers on full-time contracts, instead producing shows with freelancers and working with other promotions. After Tenryu's in-ring retirement match in 2015, Tenryu Project stopped running shows. Five years later, a special anniversary show was held in 2020 titledKakumei Denshō (革命伝承;lit. "Revolutionary Tradition").[3]
Tenryu Project was re-established with a tour in 2021 titled "Survive the Revolution".[4]
As of November 24, 2025, Tenryu Project has four recognized championships, the first three revived from WAR.[48]
