Global Force Wrestling Partnering with Producers for a New Format of Pro Wrestling
According to Real Screen, Jeff Jarrett’s Global Force Wrestling is partnering with American Ninja Warrior producer A. Smith & Co. Productions for a new wrestling series.
The series intends to create a new format of pro wrestling while providing viewers with dramatic storylines and exclusive access to their favorite athletes.
The series will reportedly feature international wrestlers from the GFW roster, and will utilize the event production style that A. Smith & Co. uses on shows such as NBC’s “Spartan Race” and FOX’s “Hell’s Kitchen”.
Arthur Smith, CEO of A. Smith & Co. Productions, had the following to say in a statement on the new project:
“Global Force Wrestling is a complete reinvention of the sport that will really resonate with viewers – we’re taking what fans are traditionally used to seeing and flipping it on its head. All sports go through transitions, and wrestling is primed for its next evolution. We’re going to be adding a number of new features and elements that are going to completely change the entertainment level of the sport.”
