National Wrestling Hall of Fame and Museum, Sports hall of fame in Stillwater, Oklahoma, United States

The National Wrestling Hall of Fame and Museum in Stillwater, Oklahoma, covers about 15,000 square feet and holds the John T. Vaughan Hall of Honors, where Distinguished Members are recognized on granite plaques, the Paul K. Scott Museum of Wrestling History, the Cliff Keen Theater and the William S. Hein Library. Interactive exhibits and digital kiosks let visitors watch NCAA Championship matches from the 1930s onward.

The United States Wrestling Federation chose Stillwater over Waterloo, Iowa, in 1972, and the museum opened in 1976. Six Oklahomans, among them Myron Roderick and Melvin D. Jones, formed the Hall of Fame corporation, and Oklahoma State University supplied the land at no cost under a 99-year renewable lease. In 2010 it absorbed the Dan Gable Museum, and in 2016 it revoked all honors given to Dennis Hastert after his conviction.

The space celebrates how wrestling became rooted in American college life and what made certain athletes and coaches stand out in shaping the sport. You see names of people who built the program and kept it alive for new generations.
