The merger is complete.
In April, New Japan Pro-Wrestling announced that they were fully acquiring Bushiroad Fight, the parent company of STARDOM. Bushiroad Fight would be renamed STARDOM, and the merger was set to be completed on June 28. In the announcement, it was stated that the goal of the acquisition was to, "Improve operating efficiency and reduce redundancies within Bushiroad’s sports unit."
On June 28, STARDOM confirmed that the merger had been completed, so STARDOM became a wholly-owned subsidiary of NJPW.
As announced in April, the merger between STARDOM and New Japan-Pro-Wrestling was completed June 28th.
