NEW COVID-19 CONCERNS TO HAVE HUGE EFFECT ON JAPANESE WRESTLING

By Mike Johnson on 2021-01-13 13:05:00

With a new, potentially more dangerous variant of COVID-19 found in Japan, the country is making moves that will greatly effect professional wrestlers working in the country.

United Press International is reporting Japan is planning to suspend the entry of all non-resident foreigners from the country.  They also intend to deport any foreign residents living in Japan if they violate the country's quarantine regulations and quarantine for 14 days after landing in Japan.

Obviously, these regulations would prevent non-Japanese talents from traveling into the country if they are not already residing within Japan, something that would impact New Japan Pro Wrestling, All Japan, NOAH and many other promotions.
