About

Pro Wrestling Noah (プロレスリングノア Puroresuringu Noa) (stylised as Pro Wrestling NOAH) is a Japanese professional wrestling promotion, founded in 2000 by former All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW) ace Mitsuharu Misawa after he had led a mass exodus in which 24 of AJPW's 26 contracted wrestlers left the promotion to form Noah. Noah held its first shows in August 2000, and established the Global Honored Crown as the fictional governing body for its collection of championships. Throughout its 19 year history, Noah has had working relationships with New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW), All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW), Impact Wrestling (Formerly TNA) and Big Japan Pro Wrestling (BJW). It is currently owned by Lidet Entertainment.
