Japanese professional wrestling and MMA promotion

Gleat Founded August 20, 2020 Style Puroresu Shoot style Mixed martial arts Headquarters Yūrakuchō, Tokyo, Japan Founder(s) Hiroyuki Suzuki Kiyoshi Tamura Owner Hiroyuki Suzuki Parent Lidet Entertainment[1] Website ent.lidet.co.jp/gleat

**Gleat** (stylized in [all caps](/source/All_caps) as **GLEAT** and pronounced as "great") is a [Japanese professional wrestling](/source/Japanese_professional_wrestling) and [mixed martial arts](/source/Mixed_martial_arts) [promotion](/source/Professional_wrestling_promotion) founded in 2020 by former [Pro Wrestling Noah](/source/Pro_Wrestling_Noah) parent company Lidet Entertainment after the [acquisition of](/source/CyberFight) Noah and [DDT Pro-Wrestling](/source/DDT_Pro-Wrestling) by [CyberAgent](/source/CyberAgent). The promotion is overseen by Hiroyuki Suzuki and former [mixed martial artist](/source/Mixed_Martial_Arts) and [professional wrestler](/source/Professional_wrestler) [Kiyoshi Tamura](/source/Kiyoshi_Tamura). The promotion emphasizes the use of the [UWFi](/source/UWF_International) [combat sports](/source/Combat_sport)-based [wrestling style](/source/Shoot_style).[2][3][4]

## History

In November 2018, Japanese advertising company Lidet Entertainment began investing in various business ventures in the professional wrestling industry including [Riki Choshu](/source/Riki_Choshu)'s Power Hall show in December 2018. On January 29, 2019, Lidet Entertainment bought 75% shares of [Pro Wrestling Noah](/source/Pro_Wrestling_Noah), with the goal of transforming the promotion into the second largest promotion in Japan after [New Japan Pro-Wrestling](/source/New_Japan_Pro-Wrestling) (NJPW). A year later due to Noah's financial struggles, Lidet Entertainment sold all shares of Pro Wrestling Noah to internet advertising company [CyberAgent](/source/CyberAgent). Lidet's President Hiroyuki Suzuki wanting to continue to be involved with professional wrestling met with [Kiyoshi Tamura](/source/Kiyoshi_Tamura) several days after the sale of Noah.[5] Suzuki later announced the formation of a new promotion, Gleat – it was additionally revealed that [Kaz Hayashi](/source/Kaz_Hayashi) and [Nosawa Rongai](/source/Nosawa_Rongai) would become the Gleat Chief Technical Officer and Chief Strategy Officer, respectively. Gleat promotes shows via its two sub-brands – G Prowrestling, a traditional [puroresu](/source/Puroresu) brand, and Lidet UWF, a [UWFi](/source/UWFi)-inspired [shoot style](/source/Shoot_style) brand.

Gleat held its inaugural event, "Gleat Ver. 0", on October 15, 2020, which [aired](/source/Broadcast_delay) on [Fighting TV Samurai](https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIGHTING_TV_%E3%82%B5%E3%83%A0%E3%83%A9%E3%82%A4) on October 22, with the main event pitting NOAH's Sugiura-gun ([Takashi Sugiura](/source/Takashi_Sugiura), [Kazuyuki Fujita](/source/Kazuyuki_Fujita) and [Kendo Kashin](/source/Kendo_Kashin)) against [Jun Akiyama](/source/Jun_Akiyama), [Shuhei Taniguchi](/source/Maybach_Taniguchi), and [Daisuke Sekimoto](/source/Daisuke_Sekimoto).[6] The participation of NOAH wrestlers on Gleat events would cease after Nosawa Rongai resigned from his positions at Gleat to focus on his role as NOAH booker.[7][8] Following the end of the NOAH partnership, Gleat would see the participation of wrestlers from other Japan-based wrestling promotions, such as [Sho](/source/Sho_(wrestler)) from [NJPW](/source/New_Japan_Pro-Wrestling) and [Shinjiro Otani](/source/Shinjiro_Otani) and [Masato Tanaka](/source/Masato_Tanaka) from [Pro Wrestling Zero1](/source/Pro_Wrestling_Zero1).

In February 2021, shoot style veterans [Minoru Tanaka](/source/Minoru_Tanaka_(wrestler)) and [Daijiro Matsui](/source/Daijiro_Matsui) were signed by the company, shortly after Tanaka was given the UWF Rule Technical Officer executive role.[9][10] In May, it was announced that [Cima](/source/Cima_(wrestler)), [El Lindaman](/source/El_Lindaman), [T-Hawk](/source/T-Hawk_(wrestler)), and Issei Onitsuka would be leaving [Oriental Wrestling Entertainment](/source/Oriental_Wrestling_Entertainment) and [Ryuichi Kawakami](/source/Ryuichi_Kawakami) would be leaving [Big Japan Pro Wrestling](/source/Big_Japan_Pro_Wrestling) to join Gleat.[11][12] Gleat also operates a developmental division, with Yu Iizuka, Soma Watanabe, and [Takanori Ito](/source/Takanori_Ito) being the promotion's inaugural trainees.[13]

In December 2021, Gleat announced a 12-man tournament would be held from January 26 to February 22, 2022 to crown the inaugural [G-Rex Champion](/source/G-Rex_Championship).[14][15] The tournament and championship were won by El Lindaman.

In July 2022, Gleat announced the creation of the [G-Infinity Championship](/source/G-Infinity_Championship) for its G Prowrestling brand. A four-team tournament was held from August 20, 2022, to August 24 to crown the inaugural champions.[16] The tournament was won by Bulk Orchestra ([Kazma Sakamoto](/source/Kazma_Sakamoto) and [Ryuichi Kawakami](/source/Ryuichi_Kawakami)).[17] On December 14, Gleat promoted its first [mixed martial arts](/source/Mixed_martial_arts) (MMA) event, [Gleat MMA Ver. 0](/source/Gleat_MMA_Ver.0).[18]
