Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) is an American professional wrestling promotion and former developmental territory based in Louisville, Kentucky.[2] The company is currently run by Al Snow, Matt Jones, and Louisville mayor Craig Greenberg.

OVW was initially a member promotion of the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) from its inception in 1993 until 2000, when it became the primary developmental territory for the World Wrestling Federation, now known as WWE.[3] It remained in this role from 2000 until February 7, 2008, when the promotion became unaffiliated.[4] In November 2011, OVW became the developmental territory for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling.[5] This relationship initially ended on November 2, 2013, but on March 19, 2019, the two promotions re-established their developmental agreement.[6]

OVW's television programming originates from the Davis Arena in the Buechel neighborhood of Louisville.[7] Their weekly series, known informally as OVW TV, currently airs locally on WBNA-21 and is streaming online via FITE TV as well as the promotion's YouTube channel. As of 2020, through various syndication and distribution deals, OVW's weekly series is available to view in over 100 million households in the U.S., and to over 700 million worldwide.[8][9][10]
