From GameBiz:

It turns out that WWE Japan GK has been dissolved. Yesterday (September 1st), all employees (meaning investors) agreed. It was revealed in the "Public Notice of Dissolution" published in the "Government Bulletin" dated today (September 2nd).

It is a Japanese corporation established by the American professional wrestling organization "WWE". It was running the Japan tournament, but the "WWE Live Japan" scheduled for July 2-4 this year was canceled.

WWE has not run a live event in Japan since June 2019. The company typically makes an annual trip to Japan, but the pandemic prevented travel in 2020 and 2021.
