Words from the NEW NWA Texas Champion

Charlie Haas stripped of the NWA Texas Title, New Champ to be crowned Jan. 7th

In the world of professional wrestling sometimes a title can change hands without the champion ever stepping into the ring.  Unfortunately NWA Southwest Commissioner Ken Taylor had to make the announcement that former WWE Superstar and reigning NWA Texas Champion, Charlie Haas would be stripped of the NWA Texas Title.   Taylor officially stripped the belt from Charlie Haas on January 2, 2011 for failing to make a title defense within 90 days so now the belt is up for grabs  at the Livestock Show Spectacular at the RMB Fairgrounds.

Taylor did announce that in four days, Friday January 7th at Robstown Texas, Sicodelico Jr. and  Lance Hoyt will square off in the ring to determine the new NWA Texas Champion.   Sicodelico Jr. has been one of the biggest names in Lucha Libre in the United States working between Mexico and the Lone Star State.  Sicodelico Jr. is one of very few wrestlers with victories over the NWA Worlds Champion, Adam Pearce.  Lance Hoyt has spent the past seven years wrestling for TNA Wrestling and recently in the WWE.  With Lance's departure from the WWE announced recently, it seems Hoyt is focused on making NWA Southwest his new home.  Hoyt a native of Texas plans to prove to the world that he is a superstar and hopes to do so at the expense of Sicodelico Jr.

NWA Southwest 12th Anniversary Update

NWA SOUTHWEST 12th ANNIVERSARY SHOW

NWA Southwest (NWA-SW) is putting together a huge card in celebration of its 12th Anniversary on February 26, at the 2800-seat Central Pavilion on the RMB Fairgrounds in Robstown, Texas. NWA-SW had its first show on February 27, 1998 in Dallas.

On this card will be a World Title match of Battle of the Masked Men with champion Blue Demon, Jr. facing recent WWE developmental Sicodelico, Jr. It will be Sicodelico's second shot at NWA glory since facing Adam Pearce back in 2007.

Kevin Northcutt - former TNA star, 2-time World Tag Team champion, and 9-time Texas champ - will defend versus challenger and long time Texas ring vet Ben Galvan.

Also, the card will feature a [MINI] match and a Tornado match. Live band music will precede bell-time.

Update in the NWA World Title Tournament

On June 30th, 2007 in Chula Vista, California, in front of a crowd of 350 people, The Shooter Brent Albright topped Fred Sampson to secure his way into the Semi-Finals. The match was originally planned to take place in the home state of Oklahoma, but due to excessive rain fall and flooding this qualifying match was moved to San Diego. The changing of the venues worked to the disadvantage of Albright, because the crowd was behind Sampson, which probably would not have been the case in Oklahoma. Many believed that the match would come to an end when Sampson landed his Bonecrushing Powerslam. Albright shocked the crowd with a Half-Nelson suplex for the 3 count.

July 13th 2007, Knights of Columbus Hall, 4315 N. Vincent Ave, Covina CA. Belltime 8:00pm. Obviously this is home field advantage for "Scrap Iron", however, Adam Pearce has never endured himself to the home crowd. For "Techincal Perfection" Chad Parham may have the edge in this match up. Parham ousted none other that the pride of the Mid-Atlantic, Damien Wayne, to advance in the tournament. "Scrap Iron" may have something to worry about. Pearce beat Aaron Aguilera. The bottom line is that this is yet another styles clash that should lead to an exciting match up. Pearce isn't new to wrestling high flying smaller wrestlers. Adam Pearce feuding for a stint in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla with TNA's Frankie Kazarian. And as depicted earlier in the video of Pearce vs. Pelle in ROH, Pearce is used to facing the guys with a lot of quickness. Parahm has proved he can compete with the bigger guys. Both men are champions in the repective territories. Chad is the Anarchy Heavyweight Champion. Adam is the NWA Heritage Champion.

Lighting struck once when "Techincal Perfection" was able to defeat "Mr. Mid-Atlantic" Damien Wayne. However, Lightning won't be stricking twice. My prediction is that Adam Pearce will be too much for Parham.

"Showdown in CrisisLand!" on Saturday, July 21st, 2007, Live @ Knights of Columbus Hall , 279 Quinnipiac Street in Wallingford, CT! Doors open at 6:30 pm. Bell time is 7:00 pm.
"One new matched confirmed this morning will bring CHIKARA into the NWA spotlight. Currently, the NWA is in the process of crowning a new World Heavyweight champion. As luck would have it, two of the quarter-finalists in the NWA title tournament happen to be participating in our July 21 Wallingford card, and thanks to both Director of Fun Leonard F. Chikarason and NWA Executive Director Bob Trobich, we're proud to announce that for the first time ever, Claudio Castagnoli will face Sicodelico, Jr., and the match has been sanctioned as a quarter-final bout in the ongoing NWA title tourney! Everyone here at CHIKARA is proud to know we'll be playing a small part in this historic title tournament!"

Sicodelico Jr. and Claudio Castagnoli will be facing off in CHIKARA. I don't believe this makes CHIKARA anything offical to the NWA, but just friendly. Much like the NECW who hosted 2 qualifying matches early on for the NWA. This would have to be considered home field advantage for Caludio, considering he has competed inside a CHIKARA ring very frequently. However, the pro-lucha enthusiasm from the crowd might put Sicodelico over with the crowd.

The bracketing thus far hasn't favored either man. This match up should remind many of the match up betweens Dean Malenko and Rey Mysterio Jr. The luchador vs. the mat technician. I am greatly looking forward to this match up. Sicodelico I feel is going to be the under dog in this match up. He has a great opstacle to overcome in Castagnoli. I predict Claudio will put Sicodelico Jr. away and advance to the Semi-Finals.
