With fall approaching, it means one thing for Pro Wrestling NOAH and that is it's N-1 Victory time again which kicks off September 18th. The N-1 Victory (a replacement of the previous Global League) is NOAH's round robin tournament for heavyweights with the winner, barring it be champion Go Shiozaki, will get a title shot in the future. As usual, I will look at each participant and their chances of winning.

Well, it's that time again as Pro Wrestling NOAH runs their yearly Global Tag League. The tournament, held for heavyweights, will feature eight teams in blocks of two in a round robin tournament. The teams with the highest points in their blocks will go to finals and face off to determine the winner of the league. Here now, we'll take a look at the participants and my thoughts on each teams chances for success.

Back in 2010, Pro Wrestling NOAH established a yearly heavyweight round robin tournament called the Global League. The tournament was supposed to be to the organization what the G-1 Climax is to New Japan Pro Wrestling, the Champion Carnival is to All Japan Pro Wrestling, or the Fire Festival is to Pro Wrestling ZERO1. However, with the change in management in 2019, NOAH saw many changes including new logo and the end of their signature green mats. Another change was the renaming of the Global League to the N-1 Victory tournament. For the first annual N-1 Victory, things got more interesting when it was announced current GHC (Global Honored Crown) Heavyweight Champion Kaito Kiyomiya would not participate and that the winner would be the number one contender to the GHC Heavyweight Championship with the match being held at Sumo Hall on November 2nd. As I've done this year with the Champion Carnival and Fire Festival, I shall take a look at the participants and see where I think they stand.
