Global Force Wrestling is a company that is constantly changing. At the beginning of 2017 the promotion was known as TNA, but Bruce Prichard later debuted as an authority figure and declared that TNA is done and the company would now be known as Impact Wrestling. Fast forward a few months later, and the company is now known as Global Force Wrestling.
