The Partnership Between GFW and NOAH Continues to Develop

In an effort to make their stock and name in general more appealing to the audience, Global Force Wrestling has formed a partnership with Pro Wrestling NOAH recently. Now that is expanding.

It has been revealed by WrestlingInc today through an announcement sent to them from GFW that the partnership between itself and NOAH is expanding.

“Global Force Wrestling Welcomes Back Stars From Pro Wrestling NOAH

Ishimori To Compete At Destination-X; GFW Stars Moose & Eddie Edwards Will Compete in Japan In October

Nashville – Global Force Wrestling (GFW), a subsidiary of Anthem Sports & Entertainment Corp., announced today that it is expanding its talent exchange with Tokyo-based Pro Wrestling NOAH.

Taiji Ishimori, the three-time and reigning Global Honored Crown (GHC) Junior Heavyweight Champion from Pro Wrestling NOAH, returns to IMPACT Wrestling on Thursday, Aug. 17, to participate in Destination-X, live on Pop TV and broadcast to more than 120 countries worldwide. Ishimori was a show-stealer in his GFW debut on July 2, at Slammiversary 15, originating from The Impact Zone on the backlot of Universal Studios Florida.

Ishimori was joined at Slammiversary by Naomichi Marufuji.

“All of us at GFW are excited to continue to grow our relationship with Pro Wrestling NOAH,” said GFW Vice President of International Relations Scott D’Amore. “Having Ishimori back competing in the six-sided GFW ring at Destination-X shows our commitment to showcasing the very best athletes from around the world.”

There is no confirmation yet on additional Pro Wrestling NOAH talent that will be in Orlando for Destination-X and the ensuing TV tapings for IMPACT Wrestling, D’Amore said.

GFW stars also will be heading to Japan later this year to participate in Great Voyage 2017, vol. 2 from Pro Wrestling NOAH on Sunday, Oct. 1. GFW stars Moose and Eddie Edwards will be competing in Japan. Edwards was in Japan earlier this year, along with “Cowboy” James Storm.

“GFW is excited and honored to be part of the Great Voyage from Pro Wrestling NOAH,” D’Amore said. “Moose and Eddie Edwards are two amazing athletes who will be great representatives for GFW and IMPACT Wrestling.

“These talent collaborations are examples of how GFW and its international promotional partners continue to work together on an unprecedented level to provide a truly global audience with the very best action in the wrestling business.””

So with that said, it is likely that during the upcoming months we will continue to see more talent appear on both GFW and NOAH. It is unknown if this agreement has a timeline or how long it will last, but we at Wrestling Rumors certainly wish the best for it.

Editor’s Note:

I love this! I can’t wait to see the future of both companies. I am sure they will both use this agreement a lot in order to create compelling characters and storylines. In the case of GFW, it will help get them more much needed fan support. For NOAH, it means more notoriety for their shows and brand.
