With GFW having no real sense of being an actual by itself promotion with a roster other then Jeff and Karen or running shows as GFW, I'm just getting a NWA vibe of other promotions "partnering" with them similar to the NWA minus having one world champion going to the different partners, well unless you count Jeff Jarrett as a championship going around to each promotion. Thoughts?

I still think Jarrett is biding his time and getting his pieces together, but it's still honestly too early to say. I'd rather him take his time and risk looking like vaporware than being like most of the other start-up promotions that tried to be a big deal fairly quick and then busted out.

Jim Crockett Promotions, Georgia Championship Wrestling, Mid-South Wrestling, UWF, World Class, Continental, Central States and a long list of other companies ran shows. Even the early interpromotional StarrCades were promoted by JCP. My main problem with GFW being the new NWA is, what do they get out of joining with Jarrett? There was a reason for the NWA, but I can't really see what Jeff Jarrett can offer all of these companies that they would surrender any part of their autonomy to him.

I kinda like the idea of it being just an importer of overseas wrestling promotions to the US.
If they bring in more Japanese, Lucha, Euro wrestling to American audiences, all the better.

She still looks great IMO, although not as good as she once did. This is a better picture:

Look, I still would, if ever given the chance. But I'm also not going to get into a debate about any woman's looks on this board. This is the absolute worst board on the internet to debate one's taste in women. So I respectfully withdraw my comment and any further arguments on my behalf.

I had to LOL at this. I guess I may be significantly older than most posters here, but from my POV Karen Jarrett is still smokin' hot. That's not the best pic of her, I'll admit. But there are plenty of others that demonstrate her assets quite well.

But right nowits basically jarrett pimping smaller companies and New Japan to America yeah it's supposed to be it's own. At least thats what the press releases made it sound like. But as of now the only show their name is attached to is a New Japan one.

I hope so; I like the idea of a network of indie and foreign feds sharing talent, working together and supporting each other.

NWA has actually existed. Global Force is the new Bigfoot. People talk about it, but there's no actual thing there.
