Boogie's Last Dance on 4/25 in SC

Jimmy Valiant will wrestle what is being billed as the final match of his career on April 25, 2026.

NAWA Championship Wrestling announced that Valiant will compete at Boogie’s Last Dance in Lancaster, South Carolina. The promotion is presenting the bout as his retirement match.

Valiant, 83, last wrestled on September 23, 2023, in a six-man tag team match for NAWA. The April 25 appearance will be his first match in more than two years.

An opponent has not been announced.

Valiant debuted in 1964 and has remained active on the independent circuit for decades, particularly in the Carolinas. He has said the match will conclude a career spanning seven decades.

If it proceeds as planned, the event will mark the formal end of his in-ring career.
