Pro Wrestling Graphics That Actually Sell Your Event
Black text that says 'Who We Are' on a white background.

Curtain Jerker Designs is a wrestling-first design studio specializing in pro wrestling graphics for live events, promotions, and talent. We’re not outsiders guessing what wrestling fans respond to — we’re built by people who understand the grind, the pressure, and the visual language of pro wrestling.

We’ve worked behind the scenes of live events across the U.S., and that real-world experience shapes every design decision we make.

We create professional pro wrestling graphics that make your event look legitimate before the bell ever rings.

Our work includes:

  • Event posters and flyers

  • Full match cards and individual match graphics

  • Social media promo graphics

  • Promotion branding and visual identity

  • Digital assets for YouTube, streaming, and online promotion

Every graphic is designed with purpose — to stop the scroll, highlight the card, and present your promotion at its best.

Black text on a white background states "How We Help."

We help wrestling promotions save time, reduce stress, and sell their events with confidence.

Instead of juggling design, promotion, and production on your own, you get a reliable partner who understands wrestling timelines, last-minute changes, and the importance of consistency. Our pro wrestling graphics create a strong first impression, elevate talent perception, and give fans confidence that your show is worth attending.

No templates. No runaround. No “designer ego.”
Just clear communication, fast turnaround, and visuals that work.

  • Great Lakes Championship Wrestling has been working with Derek at Curtain Jerker Designs since 2021. During that time, Derek has made my life easier and even a tad more stress free.  I know that if I need something very last minute that Derek will always find a way to make it happen. His pride and professionalism goes unmatched in an industry that was built and developed off of the carnivals.  I cannot recommend Derek at Curtain Jerker Designs enough to make your graphic arts needs top notch.   As Curt Hennig would say....  Nobody does it better.

Derek at Curtain Jerker Designs is the best and most professional graphic artist that I have ever had the honor to work with. He doesn’t make you feel like just a client, but he also make you feel like a friend. I would ONLY ever suggest Derek when it comes to anyone’s graphic needs."
