In a fun and creative twist on traditional gender reveal parties, a Singaporean couple decided to announce their baby’s gender with an epic wrestling match at GrappleMax. The event was a thrilling spectacle, brimming with excitement, cheers, and dramatic wrestling moves, perfectly showcasing the studio’s unique mix of athleticism and entertainment.

A Memorable Gender Reveal
The gender reveal event at GrappleMax was nothing short of spectacular. The video captured the excitement perfectly, featuring two wrestlers—one clad in pink and the other in blue—dueling it out in the ring. The outcome of the match would reveal the baby’s gender: a win for the blue wrestler meant a boy, while a win for the pink wrestler indicated a girl.
The mother knew the baby’s gender in advance, but the father was kept in suspense, his nervousness clear as he watched the intense match.
Adding to the fun, friends and family of the couple placed their bets on the baby’s gender using stickers on a board, creating a lively atmosphere of friendly competition.
The tension built up until the blue wrestler emerged victorious, leading to a joyous climax. Additionally, a balloon was popped, revealing blue confetti and confirming that the baby would be a boy.
Mixed Reactions Online
The unique gender reveal party sparked a range of reactions online. Some commenters criticized the event, calling it a wasteful spectacle designed for attention.
“The most stupidest thing to do is a gender reveal and spending money to glorify it just for attention on the internet,” wrote one Reddit user. Others expressed concern over the influence of social media on such celebrations, with comments like, “What has TikTok and Instagram done to people’s brains?”
However, there were also positive responses. A member of the wrestling community defended the event, sharing that the father-to-be is a wrestler at GrappleMax and that the event was a meaningful celebration within their community.
“Everyone in the GrappleMax family is a community,” they wrote, explaining the supportive and close-knit nature of the group.
