NJPW announces Strong On Demand, rebranding for U.S. live events

NJPW has finally announced their plans for the future of NJPW Strong which will include a rebranding of their U.S.-based live events to use the Strong name, and weekly TV content coming from those events that will air on NJPW World.

The first such show under the new Strong Live branding will be February 18th’s Battle in the Valley in San Jose, California.

While that will be a pay-per-view, it will make up four episodes of their weekly TV series that will now be called Strong On Demand on the NJPW World streaming service beginning on March 4th.

The four-episode model will continue with other U.S. events that includes March’s Strong Style Evolved at WrestleCon and April’s Capital Collision in Washington, DC and Collision in Philadelphia shows.

From the statement:

“This dual model will give fans on a budget the chance to stay up to date with the hottest action in the US through their regular NJPW World subscription, while the very best live experience on the planet awaits on pay per view as it happens.”
