FIGHTING TV SAMURAI

FIGHTING TV SAMURAI (also referred to as Samurai TV) is a Japanese television channel devoted to professional wrestling and combat sports. It is owned by the SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation, the Japanese satellite broadcasting group, and operates as a specialist pay-TV service within that platform's channel lineup. Its programming is built around Japanese and international pro-wrestling promotions and martial-arts events, making it one of the country's best-known dedicated combat-sports channels. The channel's official website, samurai-tv.com, presents it as a プロレス・格闘技専門ch (professional wrestling and combat sports specialist channel). The site carries monthly programming schedules (編成表), downloadable promotional flyers, and recurring editorial features such as the column series 「鈴木健.txt／場外乱闘 番外編」, which publishes monthly interviews with wrestlers. The homepage lists guests including 藤波辰爾, MIRAI, 羽南, 安齊勇馬 and 橋本千紘, illustrating the channel's close ties to the Japanese wrestling scene and its roster of active performers. Beyond the linear channel, Samurai TV maintains a social-media presence (including an official X/Twitter account and Facebook page) and a viewer contact line, the Samurai TV Channel Information navi-dial, for questions about programming and how to subscribe. The site also provides a contact form for companies interested in airing commercials, indicating that advertising sales form part of the operation. Because it is a niche channel, its audience is concentrated among wrestling and combat-sports fans in Japan, and its value lies in carrying live and archived bouts, interview programming and event coverage that general broadcasters rarely air. As a SKY Perfect JSAT-owned service, it sits within Japan's satellite and cable pay-TV ecosystem rather than free-to-air broadcasting.

FIGHTING TV SAMURAI is a Japanese television channel specialising in professional wrestling and combat sports. It is owned by the SKY Perfect JSAT Corporation, the Japanese satellite broadcasting group whose platform hosts a large lineup of pay-TV channels. Within that ecosystem, Samurai TV occupies a niche position as a dedicated combat-sports service rather than a general-entertainment channel. The channel's identity is closely tied to the Japanese professional wrestling industry. Its official website presents it as a プロレス・格闘技専門ch (professional wrestling and combat sports specialist channel) and functions as a hub for viewers: it publishes monthly programming schedules (編成表), distributes promotional flyers, and runs recurring editorial content. One long-running feature is the column series 「鈴木健.txt／場外乱闘 番外編」, which posts monthly interviews with wrestlers; the homepage has listed guests such as 藤波辰爾, MIRAI, 羽南, 安齊勇馬 and 橋本千紘. This mix of event coverage and personality-driven interviews reflects the channel's role in serving the Japanese wrestling fan community. Operationally, Samurai TV combines linear broadcasting with direct viewer services. The website provides a channel-information telephone line (a navi-dial number) for questions about programming and how to watch the channel, and it offers a contact form for companies wishing to air commercials, indicating that advertising sales support the service. The channel also maintains an official presence on social media, including an X/Twitter account and a Facebook page, which it uses to promote programming and engage with fans. As a pay-TV channel, Samurai TV's reach is concentrated among subscribers to the SKY Perfect JSAT platform and related cable and satellite services in Japan. Its programming strategy centres on live and recorded wrestling and martial-arts events, along with interview and talk programming that general broadcasters rarely carry. This focus has made it a recognised destination for Japanese combat-sports fans, and its association with SKY Perfect JSAT places it within the country's broader satellite and pay-TV industry.
