Global Wars UK
British professional wrestling event
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Global Wars UK is an annual professional wrestling supershow co-produced by the Japanese New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) and British Revolution Pro Wrestling (RPW) promotions. A spin-off of Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro-Wrestling's Global Wars concept, the shows consist of talent for both promotions wrestling against each other. The two promotions established a partnership in July 2015 as part of NJPW's "New IWGP Conception."[1][2][3] All editions of the show have been archived on New Japan's NJPW World streaming service.
