Vivian Vachon (1951-1991) was a female professional wrestler. She was the sister of wrestlers Maurice and Paul Vachon, and the aunt of wrestler Luna Vachon.

Diana Vachon, born in 1951 in Montreal, grew up as one of thirteen children of Ferdinand Vachon, a Montreal police officer. She began her career in wrestling in the late 1960s while still a teenager, being trained by her brothers Maurice and Paul, who were both champion pro-wrestlers. She adopted the ring name "Vivian Vachon" (or "Vivianne Vachon") and became the American Wrestling Association's Women's Champion for a time, having defeated Bette Boucher on November 4, 1971.

In the early 1970s she starred in the motion picture Wrestling Queen, which also included her brothers and other wrestlers.

Vivian retired in the mid-1970s after marrying wrestler Buddy Wolfe, with whom she had a daughter named Julie. However she made a short comeback in professional wrestling in Japan in 1986.

Vivian and her daughter Julie were both killed in a road accident on August 25, 1991 near Montreal.
