Founder Tom Jones stepped onto the carpet in Season 4, Episode 2 in the episode that aired 14 February 2007. Varsity Wrestling, the wrestling training academy, pitched in the Other category, one of 902 other businesses to brave the Den across all 21 seasons.

No deal. Every dragon declined, and Varsity Wrestling walked. But a Dragons’ Den appearance reaches millions of viewers whether or not a check gets written, and plenty of no-deal companies have turned that airtime into lasting businesses.

Season 4 saw 52 pitches, and 10 of them closed a deal on air. In the Other category overall, roughly 11% of pitches have landed a dragon across the show's history.
