Team Angle Pusher 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2006 When can a promotion use the NWA name like NWA:TNA, NWA:CS, NWA:W etc. How can a promotion become part of the NWA, I don't really get it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2006 They talk to the group of promoters that call themselves the NWA Board of Directors and strike a deal with them. I think that in turn of being able to book the national NWA champions that you have to pay a fee (don't know if it's per show, per month, per year, etc.) to keep the NWA name.

Guest Hass of Pain Report post Posted January 20, 2006 The membership fee is $2,500 with the only real qualifications being that your promotion must run at least four shows per year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JST 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2006 That's the gist of it. Any of those feds could promote, say, Jeff Jarrett (or the actual NWA champ) defending the belt against their local top guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snuffbox 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2006 Jarrett's not the official NWA champ is he? Just TNA's but he has the old belt? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crimson G 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2006 No, he's the NWA World Champ. TNA has control over their "world-level" titles per their contract with the NWA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bruce Blank 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 yep he is the world champ but they can technically book him - if they can work out a deal with the TNA offices. same with tag champs - it's for all of the NWA as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest asher66 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 Does anyone know where that $2,500 fee goes? Into the pockets of the commission or somewhere else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
