When asked about the NEX*GEN division, Jarrett stated, "It's about the up-and-comers, the fearless new faces in this industry from around the globe. You will be talking about these guys for years to come."
GFW co-founder Karen Jarrett is excited about the women's division.

Jeff Jarrett Teasing Big GFW News

– Jeff Jarrett posted the following on Twitter over the last day or so, teasing some big news for Global Force Wrestling…

Jeff Jarrett

✔ @RealJeffJarrett

Things are really coming together for this "deal"... Almost in legal's hands... #StayTuned

 

The deal is in legal's hands... Pretty, no, very excited about this... Here we go... @GFWWrestling #StayTuned

 

Not the 1st time... Certainly will not be the last-- Legalities can/will kill a deal quicker than anything... #NotForLackOfEffort

 

Well, stranger things have happened... Not a "done deal", but huge turnaround this morning... Definitely headed in the right direction...

 

– There has been a lot of speculation on what the news could be, and with TV tapings already scheduled; many feel that it could be a TV deal for the promotion. More on the story as it develops.

 

Opinionated View- It took Jarrett months of teasing to officially announce a company. It than took about  a year to hold a shows or announce talent. So odds are it will be Christmas before what ever Jarrett is teasing is announced.

TNA's Tyrus (a/k/a George Murdoch Jr.) announced that he will not be working the Global Force Wrestling events as advertised. "Due to contractual obligations, I will not be working for GFW's upcoming shows," Tyrus wrote on his Twitter page.

Opinionated View- Well it sounds like TNA told him he couldn't do it. Now I saw that moron Jason Powell go "TNA should let him for the good of talent." Here's the thing dumbass TNA let guys work events but I think they are more than fair to say not Global Force.

Did Scott Hall Leave GFW Because Of WWE?

As we previously reported, Scott Hall was recently removed from Global Force Wrestling’s roster page. It was believed that this was due to a recent incident in which Hall was publicly intoxicated at an independent show.

However, there is speculation that there may be a different reason. Al Haft, who works at the “I Believe In Wrestling Dojo” with Hall, said: “There was some talk at Jersey Championship Wrestling that Scott Hall was pulling out of Global Force Wrestling due to the size they were becoming and not wanting to upset WWE especially after Hall’s WrestleMania appearance.”

This is obviously not official at all, so just consider it a rumor for now.
Opinionated View- This sounds like the kind of story you put out to try and do damage control. Jarrett's been pretty clear he wants to do a national company. That's why he's talking about TV deals. And it's not like working for a non WWE company means you can't ever go back. Hall's worked for TNA several times and been back with WWE later on.
