Pro Wrestling NOAH DESTINATION 2024 set for July 13 Not available to watch in Canada, UK or Mexico.

Pro Wrestling NOAH has one of the biggest shows of the year DESTINATION 2024 planned for July 13 at the Nippon Budokan.

There are some incredible matches scheduled for this event, including WWE superstar AJ Styles appearing as he faces NOAH legend Naomichi Marufuji. Yoichi returns from an excursion and will challenge current GHC Heavyweight Champion Kaito Kiyomiya in what is sure to be an incredible match. A giant lucha libre match takes place in which El Hijo De Dr. Wagner Jr and Galeno Del Mal face off against Alpha Wolf and Dragon Bane.

Additionally, Ulka Sasaki gets a shot at HAYATA’s GHC National Title, KENOH battles NJPW legend Yuji Nagata, and the final match for the GLG faction features Jake Lee, YO-HEY & Tadasuke vs. Jack Morris, Anthony Greene & LJ Cleary, GLG will disband after the match. There are also three other exciting periods for the card.

This NOAH event is destined to be another great event. The mere fact that WWE superstar AJ Styles, who has an incredible history in Japan, will be participating at DESTINATION 2024 excites every Pro Wrestling NOAH fan around the world. Yoichi returning from an excursion and going straight after Kiyomiya excites every Pro Wrestling NOAH fan around the world. This entire card, which I received a press release for via email, has Pro Wrestling NOAH fans all over the world excited!

When I received the press release for DESTINATION 2024, it was revealed that it will be a PPV, which makes sense because it is a PPV quality show. The event is available on Abema TV according to the press release I received. AS A FAITHFUL PRO WRESTLING NOAH FAN, I immediately said to myself: I MUST order this. From my home in Windsor, Ontario, I clicked on the Abema TV link and saw the words that deeply disappointed me. The words I saw were: “NOT AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE – This content is not available in your country or region.”

The decision was made by Abema TV and Pro Wrestling NOAH to not make DESTINATION 2024 available in Canada. Plus, it’s not available in the UK or Mexico. It will only be available in the US, South Korea, Thailand and the Philippines. Pro Wrestling NOAH fans in any other country will not be able to watch DESTINATION 2024.

Again, I have been a very loyal Pro Wrestling NOAH fan for quite some time, but this really leaves a very bad taste in my mouth. I am extremely disappointed that unless you live in the US, South Korea, Thailand or the Philippines, you will be excluded from attending one of NOAH’s biggest events of the year.

The same situation occurred earlier this year with the ALL TOGETHER events made available through Abema and only in the US, South Korea, Thailand and the Philippines. Even though I was upset I let that go, thinking it was just for the ALL TOGETHER events, but now I can’t let it go because it’s being done with the promotion I consider my favorite in the world.

Does it make sense to announce a potential working deal with the WWE that will see AJ Styles go to NOAH to compete in a dream match with Naomichi Marufuji and put a limit on the number of NOAH fans who can watch? Does it make sense for Yoichi, who looks fantastic, to return and challenge Kiyomiya for the GHC Heavyweight title and limit the number of fans who can watch? Doesn’t NOAH want to maximize its revenue by offering this to every NOAH fan in the world? The thing is, I’m almost certain that NOAH decided to air this PPV exclusively on Abema TV and not on the WRESTLE UNIVERSE streaming site. I mean, NOAH would have to make that decision, right?

A large number of loyal Pro Wrestling NOAH fans have taken to social media to express their displeasure over this situation, and with good reason. Speaking for myself, I have been a very loyal fan of Pro Wrestling NOAH for quite some time. KENOH and Kiyomiya are among my favorite wrestlers in the world. NOAH is my favorite promotion on earth, but the decision to ban me and all other large numbers of fans from watching Pro Wrestling NOAH DESTINATION 2024 has left me deeply disappointed in the promotion that I have been deeply devoted to for many years. Honestly, I feel like I’m being punished for some reason and I sincerely hope that this doesn’t happen on a regular basis at Pro Wrestling NOAH.
