Here are the quick results from last night’s NWA “Nuff Said” PPV in Tampa, FL (I had planned to do live results but was unable to due to illness): The event can be watched on FITE for $24.99 and, if your should-be-cancelled subscription still has time left on it, NWA All-Access (Annual Plan only. The service has been discontinued but you can still watch for free until your subscription runs out). The pre-show is available FOR FREE on YouTube. The event was a legit advance sellout. Pre-show: La Rosa Negra beat Missa Kate. Dax Draper & Mims beat Jax Dane & Blake Troop. Draper pinned Troop with a slingshot rollup. EC3 announced he has signed with NWA and is bringing his Control Your Narrative brand with him. Odinson beat Joe Alonzo. Mercurio & Natakia Markova beat Jennacide & Max The Impaler. Markova pinned Jennacide after a double-arm DDT.
PPV: In a Singapore Cane Match, Thom Latimer beat Fodder. NWA World Jr. Heavyweight Champion Kerry Morton beat Alex Taylor to retain the title. Thrillbilly Silas Mason beat (JR) Kratos. Renegade Twins beat NWA World Women’s Tag Team Champions Pretty Empowered to become THE NEW NWA WORLD WOMEN’S TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! Charlette Renegade pinned Ella Envy with a rollup. (Yes, the same Renegades that have been jobbers in AEW) EC3 beat Kevin Kiley (Alex Riley) by submission. NWA World Tag Team Champions La Rebelion beat Blunt Force Trauma by DQ to retain the titles. Blunt Force Trauma DQ’d when manager Aron Stevens got caught with a loaded punch to Bestia 666. Chris Adonis beat Trevor Murdoch by submission. In a No DQ Match, NWA World Women’s Champion Kamille beat Angelina Love to retain the title. NWA National Heavyweight Champion Cyon beat Homicide to retain the title. In a No Seconds at Ringside Match, NWA World Heavyweight Champion Tyrus beat Matt Cardona to retain the title. Bully Ray was on commentary. There was interference from Rolando Freeman, Mike Knox and Bully after a ref bump. Afterwards, Tyrus offered Bully an open contract for a title shot. The result seems to give more credibility to rumors that Cardona could soon be following wife Chelsea Green back to WWE (Cardona most recently has been with Impact Wrestling).
No word yet on when the next PPV is, they have TV tapings today & tomorrow in Tampa then are headed to Mexico on 3/4 for a crossover event with AAA in Mexico City that will include a Smashing Pumpkins performance (Billy Corgan’s band). After that, NWA matches will be part of a 2-week Smashing Pumpkins tour in Australia in April, and given recent schedules the next PPV will probably follow in May with what should be the 75th Anniversary Event in August.
The NWA runs their final quarterly PPV of the year today, and it comes amidst a month of white-hot controversy outside of the ring. Over the last couple months, a fast-growing inferno has erupted between now-potentially-former top star Nick Aldis and NWA owner/promoter Billy Corgan that, in reality, stretches back about a year when Aldis first lost the NWA World Heavyweight Championship to Trevor Murdoch, later had a title shot mysteriously taken away, and now has spilled over to include comments Corgan reportedly made to Aldis’ wife, WWE Hall of Famer and current NWA & Impact wrestler (and radio host) Mickie James. Aldis has given notice he’s leaving NWA at the end of the year when his contract is up and now has supposedly been suspended. But could he make a surprise unexpected appearance tonight? That threatens to overshadow another big card. A lot is on the line including Murdoch defending the 10 Pounds Of Gold against both Matt Cardona and Tyrus, who vacated the NWA TV Championship under the Lucky 7 Rules, to get into the title match (Lucky 7 Rules allow the TV Champion to vacate the title for another title shot of his choice if he makes 7 consecutive successful defenses, which Tyrus did. It’s not mandatory). These are among the TEN title matches making up the planned 14-match card.
Today’s event will be held at Frederick J Sigur Civic Center in Chalmette, LA and can be watched LIVE on FITE. The PPV itself is $24.99 and includes the live broadcast and unlimited on demand replays. If you are an NWA All Access Annual subscriber (which I am), you can watch the PPV live and on demand as part of your subscription. All Access Annual is available on FITE for $49.99/year and includes ALL NWA PPVs and current & past weekly TV show episodes. It’s a bargain just because the PPVs alone are over $100/year if purchased separately. There will also be a 1 hour pre-show before the PPV which will be available FOR FREE on YouTube (and possibly FITE). You can watch the pre-show below:

Overall show grade: C Disclaimer: I don’t follow the TV shows as closely as I should. That being said, the biggest thing I don’t like about the current NWA product is every big match seems to rely too much on outside interference or screwjob tactics for the finish and it turns me off quickly. On paper this looked like a great card. In reality, not so much. Get caught up on the last couple months of NWA TV before watching. And apparently no Nick Aldis and no Billy Corgan, a slight letdown after everything they’ve said in the media lately.
End Show.
UPDATE: The reason Odinson didn’t have an opponent tonight because plans changed? Aldis. it was to have originally been Odinson-Alsis.
