GFW Updates: U.S. TV Deal, First Set Of GFW Champions, U.K. Tour

Global Force Wrestling will be running the final GFW “Amped” television taping remaining on their current schedule this Friday at The Orleans Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The first ever GFW World Champion, GFW Tag-Team Champions and GFW NEX-GEN Champion will be crowned at this Friday’s taping. As things stand now, the logical front-runner to be the GFW World Champion is Nick Aldis (Magnus).

While an official domestic GFW television deal has yet to be announced, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that the promotion may be closer to a deal in the U.K. than they are in the U.S. at this point.

There were reports last month that Jeff Jarrett had already negotiated a deal, although those reports appeared to be premature.

GFW is scheduled to travel to the U.K. next week for a set of live events in that market. Advertised to appear on the shows are Nick Aldis, Mickie James, Jeff Jarrett, Karen Jarrett, Doug Williams and Marty Scurll.
