JARRETTS UNVEIL NEW WRESTLING
PROMOTION: JOIN THE FORCE!
NASHVILLE — After weeks of
speculation and unprecedented internet buzz surrounding the hashtag #ItsComing …
IT IS HERE!
Legendary performer and third-generation promoter Jeff
Jarrett and his wife, Karen, are set to unveil Global Force Wrestling
(GlobalForceWrestling.com), which promises to be the most fan-interactive and
immersive wrestling experience in history.
“Because of new media, new
technology and more ‘in-tune’ fans than we’ve ever had, wrestling is poised for
another boom like it experienced in the mid-1980s and late 1990s,” Jeff Jarrett
said. “What we’re going to deliver is a multi-platform, innovative brand that
will engage fans in ways they’ve never experienced. It will provide a fresh
perspective inside the business that fans have been clamoring
for.”
Jarrett, the founder of TNA wrestling and a 12-time world champion
who wrestled in WWE, WCW and numerous international promotions, and his wife,
Karen, have been laying the foundation for GFW since January 2014.
“Jeff
was born into this business,” Karen Jarrett said. “It’s his life’s passion. He
saw a unique opportunity to fill a need in professional wrestling, and he has
tirelessly devoted himself physically, mentally and emotionally to doing just
that.”
Videos of the Jarretts previewing the new promotion attached to
the hashtag #ItsComing have garnered more than a million views. Meanwhile, Jeff
and Karen have been searching the United States and the international ranks in
search of undiscovered talent. The response has been overwhelming, with more
than 400 performers from across the globe already in the evolving GFW talent
database.
“The reality is we want to build a brand in which fans are
watching our wrestlers evolve from day one and are truly invested in the lives
of our talent in and out of the ring,” Jarrett said.
Global Force
Wrestling expects to make several more key announcements in the coming weeks.
Stay tuned.
