Jeff Jarrett is headed to Japan shortly to put the finishing touches on the battle plan for the Tokyo Dome show. He’ll be at the 10/13 Sumo Hall show. My impression is they will broadcast either New Japan promotional videos and/or current New Japan shows on the Global Force Wrestling web site to build the Dome show, since they don’t have any television support. The show will be called Global Force Wrestling presents New Japan Wrestle Kingdom from the Tokyo Dome. From the cable distributors side they want a $24.95 price tag, but New Japan charged $35 last year for the Dome on iPPV, so the price, not yet finalized, will fall somewhere in that range. I expect the PPV deal to be announced at the Sumo Hall show.

The plan is for both a live showing, which would be on Saturday night right after what looks to be UFC’s biggest show of the year ends (Jon Jones vs. Daniel Cormier; Ronda Rousey vs. Cat Zingano double main event), and a replay at 8 p.m. on Sunday in the usual pro wrestling PPV time slot. It will be available on iPPV in both English and Japanese. It may be available in multiple languages on regular PPV as well. There’s still nothing on the potential broadcasting of the 10/13 show, past that there have been talks involving Jim Ross, but no deal has been reached.
