List of New Japan Pro-Wrestling personnel

New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), is a Japanese professional wrestling promotion based in Nakano, Tokyo. NJPW personnel consists of professional wrestlers, commentators, color commentators, ring announcers, referees, trainers, producers, bookers, and various other positions. Executives and board members are also listed.

Background

[edit]

NJPW contracts typically range from developmental deals for dojo trainees to full-time contracts. Personnel appear on untelevised live events and on televised events which are aired on various broadcasters or on NJPW's own international streaming service, New Japan World.

Personnel is organized by their role in NJPW. The performer's ring name is listed on the left and their real name is on the right. This list also acknowledges which stable (referred to by NJPW as "units") a wrestler is a part of – this is listed as it is considered by NJPW to be a vital part of their product. "(L)" indicates the leader of the group.

As of 2024, there are six central units in NJPW:

In addition to the promotion's six central units, Chaos, G・B・H, and Seigigun are all listed and regarded by NJPW as units even though they have all been integrated into the Main Unit, G・B・H is now simply a tag team, and Yuji Nagata is Seigigun’s sole member.[1] NJPW produces a U.S.-based internet television program titled NJPW Strong Live; Strong features its own distinct roster and units. Beginning in 2022, NJPW launched NJPW Tamashii, an Australasian-based subsidiary. Tamashii additionally features its own distinct roster and units. NJPW refers to their dojo trainees as "Young Lions".

As NJPW has working relationships with All Elite Wrestling (AEW), Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), Major League Wrestling (MLW), Revolution Pro Wrestling (RPW), Ring of Honor (ROH) and numerous Japanese promotions, wrestlers from these promotions may appear on NJPW events and have their home promotions or stables from their home promotions listed as their affiliated unit.
