Shared events

New Japan Pro Wrestling

Starting with 2022, Pro Wrestling Noah began organizing exhibition matches as part of various events promoted by New Japan Pro Wrestling, mainly the Wrestle Kingdom branch. All the matches usually took place in the second or third night of the event, dedicated to inter-promotional competition. The bouts are preponderantly scripted as tag team matches in which Noah's wrestlers compete under the banner of their respective units against the wrestlers from NJPW's units. As of April 24, 2024, Noah has held matches in two different NJPW pay-per-views.

All Together

All Together was a series of two professional wrestling events organized together by Japan's three biggest promotions; All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW), New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) and Pro Wrestling Noah, in response to the March 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. The first event was held in Tokyo on August 27, 2011, and the second in Sendai on February 19, 2012. All proceeds from the events were donated to Japanese Red Cross. The events featured no storylines or championship matches, instead they were booked as "supercards", putting together combinations of wrestlers from the three promotions that fans would normally not see.[45]
