Was wondering if professional wrestling has much of a following in Taiwan and if there are any bars that show live pro wrestling PPVs? I’m particularly interested in New Japan Pro Wrestling, but I would definitely attend WWE screenings if they’re aired at a reasonable hour.
Z channel (JP) in Taiwan, Professional wrestling from Japan on the TV now, had some fun watching with my Taiwanese Female friend who finds this sport interesting. Taiwan needs its own version, I think Mexico and USA has it too.
This will help when it happens next year, but I was really asking about bars where you can watch wrestling socially the way you can find bars playing football when a big game is on (both the UK and US varieties).
It’s been years since I asked this question and, since that time, I’ve come to find that, unlike in Japan, wrestling is extremely niche in Taiwan.
When I started this thread, I had long outgrown WWE and only watched New Japan Pro Wrestling, but I must say that WWE has really turned around and improved a lot in the last year or so. But I’m with you on the local amateur (or indie) shows. If such a thing exists in Taiwan, I’d love to attend. I’ve certainly never heard of such a thing though.
