Jeff Jarrett’s upstart Global Force Wrestling promotion is set to debut on pay-per-view in just over three months. Multiple pay-per-view carriers have Global Force Wrestling listed on their schedules, with the first show taking place on January 4, 2015.
January 4th is also the date of New Japan Pro Wrestling’s annual “Wrestle Kingdom” Tokyo Dome event – and this is no coincidence. According to PWInsider.com, it appears Jeff Jarrett has brokered a deal to bring the Tokyo Dome show to United States PPV for the first time. Mike Johnson reports that all marketing for the PPV will be branded “Global Force Wrestling” – not NJPW.
Jarrett, who departed TNA last December and announced the formation of Global Force Wrestling the day after WrestleMania 30, recently joined NJPW’s Bullet Club faction. He remains a minority owner of TNA Wrestling.
