7.7. How do I get to see Japanese wrestling?
There is currently no Japanese wrestling available on North
American TV, including satellite. However, if you live in North
America and want to see it, you still have a number of options
available. Many Japanese bookstores and shops in the US sell or
rent tapes of Japanese TV shows. Check any similar shops in your
area and ask if they carry it. Or, you can buy/trade for someone
else who gets it. Another possibility is to find a friend who
lives in Japan who is willing to tape it directly off of tv for
you.
New Japan is available in Europe on Eurosport. The show is called
World Superstars of Wrestling. It airs Thursdays, 8pm UK time,
with repeats on Friday at 10pm and Saturday at 11am. The shows
are nine months to two years out of date. It occasionally
pre-empted or moved in favor of other shows.
UWFI is shown in the UK on Sky Sport. The show is called Bushido
and airs on Saturday at 10pm UK time. The shows are approximately
three years behind. It is also occasionally pre-empted.
