TALK NWA Episode 11 September 17th 1:30PM Eastern, 10:30 Pacific

Make your plans to join us for Talk NWA, Saturday September 17th on Blog Talk Radio 

Alliance-Wrestling.com is proud to announce the 11th Episode of Talk NWA. Talk NWA is a 30 minute program that promises to give a voice to the fans of the National Wrestling Alliance, along with providing the latest news and information from across the NWA.

Last show we were joined by "The Modern Day Hero" Kevin Douglas.  Douglas was the first name announced for the NWA Revial: The NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship Tournament.  We were also joined by "The Grim Reaper of Wrestling" Matt Conard and NWA DAWG Champion "Mr. Mid-Atlantic" Damien Wayne. 

This week the Talk NWA crew will be joined by former NWA World Jr. Heavyweight Champion, Tony Kozina.  It was nearly eleven and a half years ago Kozina won his first World Jr. Championship.  And earlier this year, was cheated out of the title when a referee didn't see Kozina's foot on the rope while he counted three.  Kozina will talk about the NWA Revival and perhaps share a little more what's on the former champions mind.

What else will be the topics for our next show? You decided. September 3rd. 1:30PM Eastern, 10:30AM Pacific.

"Tornado" Tony Kozina: Third Entrant into the Revival NWA World Jr. Tournament

NWA "Revival": Eight men for the NWA World Jr. Heavyweight Title, Oct. 7, 2011, Metrolina Expo in Charlotte, NC. Entrant number 3: Two-time NWA World Jr. Heavyweight Champion, "Tornado" Tony Kozina! Stay tuned! Watch the Video Here

Is the NWA World Jr. Champion, Craig Classic, a Wanted Man?

Is there a price on the head of Craig Classic?  Is the NWA World Junior Champion becoming a target of Junior Heavyweights around the world?  Craig Classic, since winning the NWA World Jr. Championship has been jet-setting across the globe putting his Jr. Crown on the line.  Coming off a huge victory, Classic has now defeated two former NWA World Jr. Champions.  Classic this past weekend defeated "Mr. 630" Jerrelle Clark at I Believe XXX, Classic defeated.  Classic defeated Tony Kozina earlier this year at a NWA Midwest show.  

However, after the show, was a contract.  A contract to defend the NWA World Jr. Champion against a former World Jr. Champion in a rival organization.  In only a matter of days, Classic will defend his price against 

TJ Mack, the former AWA World Tag Team with brother and friend of the Alliance Kirby Mack.  TJ is also a former AWA World Light Heavyweight Champion.  This match with take place at PWX on June 18th  

When we talked to Craig Classic a few months back for Alliance Radio, Classic made it clear he would answer any challenge.  The past few months, the NWA World Jr. Champion has defeated Lince Dorado (also stole his mask), Nick Impact in and won both the PRWA Puerto Rico Jr. and the IPW/PPW International Jr. Titles in Puerto Rico.  Classic went to New Jersey and defeated Joey Spades and Colby Corino.  It should be noted Classic has a schedule dating out to early 2012.  No doubt about Classic is representing the NWA proudly, but for how much longer?  Tony Kozina has demanded a rematch, Christopher Gray gets a shot at Classic upcoming at the next NWA Florida show, also defenses against Mike Jackson and a return to Japan are not to far away.

The Alliance Report Feb. 7th 2011 = NWA in Review

On a weekend that many wrestling fans would take Sunday off and tune into the Worlds Largest Football game, the NWA press forward with some incredible action.  This weekends results and news have huge implications for the rest of the National Wrestling Alliance in 2011.

By 2-1 decision, the winner and reigning NWA Worlds Champion Adam Pearce

"The Maestro of Wrestling" the Stro came into Rand West Virgina with a spring in his step.  A renewed sense of determination as he was finally getting his long anticipated shot at the NWA Worlds Champion.  This would mark the first time the NWA Worlds Champion Adam Pearce would defend his title in West Virgina.  Stro being a four-time NWA Mountain State Champion hope to parlay his recent success into a Worlds Championship bid.  After 45 minutes of two competitors not being able to best one and other, a decision would be reached by judgment.  Not typical of the NWA, but not unheard of either, the conclusion of Pearce and Stro was determined by  Joe Rage, Larry Light, and Bulldozer, who voted 2-1 in favor of the reigning champion.  It should be noted that Bulldozer has been advocating his own opportunity against the Stro.  Pearce will be in Hollywood for the television taping, next week defending against Aaron Bolo, and then off to Texas and Mexico. 

The Sheik punched his ticket for a Worlds Championship Match

The Sheik answers the challenge of NWA Executive Director.  With the backlash of his malicious pre and post match attacks, Trobich threatened to remove Sheik's number one contender status if he was not victorious in consecutive, back to back challenges against the NWA National Champion, Phil Shatter.  Under promise of Jihad, The Sheik did infact retain his North American Championship and kept his status as Number 1 contender to the Worlds Title.  By defeating the "Universal Soldier" at Xtreme Limit in Waukesha WI. on the 4th and again on the 5th for NWA Supreme in Streator IL, the Sheik has punched his ticket.  Word is the match will not happen until May.

NWA World Jr. Championship returns to Japan

Craig Classic all but guaranteed he will in fact be in Japan for ZERO1's Tenth Anniversary Show.  Classic defeated former World Jr. Heavyweight Champion Tony Kozina twice in a two days.  Although his reign is in its infancy, Classic is in the process of cementing his legacy as a dynamic Jr. Champion.  Baring an upset in Florida, later this month, Craig Classic will be defending the World Jr. Championship against Munenori Sawa in Tokyo, Japan.  

 

Gunning for the Gold, Chance Prophet challenges NWA National Champion Phil Shatter

After coming up short against the Sheik twice this weekend the "Universal Soldier" Phil Shatter will defend his champion against the former National Champion and reigning NWA Dawg Pound Champion, Chance Prophet.  This match was set to take place nearly a month earlier, but was postponed due to issues with the building.  With the issues resolved, the match will now take place next Saturday.  One would have to venture that perhaps the battles with the Sheik are starting to take their tole on Shatter.  Is he healthy enough?  Will he be at 100%?  Chance Prophet, although remaining active has not had the battles Shatter has had.  Will the 2 year reign of Phil Shatter end in West Deptford New Jersey? 

New Championship Reigns in NWA Midwest

Friday Night NWA Xtreme Limit crowned a new NWA Heartland States Champion when Derek St. Holmes defeated Matt Winchester in Waukesha Wisconsin. The Heartland States Championship has helped to establish some of the top stars of the NWA in the last 5 years. Former champions include "The Machinegun" Karl Anderson, "Skull Krusher" Rasche Brown, both whom went on to become World Tag Team Champions, and it should be noted that "The King of Oldschool" Steve Corino also previously held that championship when he returned to active wrestling in the United States. This is coming off the heels of the Sadist narrowly defeating former NWA Midwest Heavyweight Champion, The Sheik and the crowning of a new Midwest X-Division in Oliver Cain.  Cain successfully defended the title against Da Cobra.

The NWA's reach in Tennessee has grown again 

Joining Main Event, Top Rope, and Chattanooga, will be Smoky Mountain.  The four promotions will now carry the NWA Banner in Volunteer State. 

NWA Australia to crown new ZERO1 NWA United National Heavyweight Champion

Meltdown 2011 presented by NWA Pro Wrestling Australia is just under two weeks away.  This show will be highlighted by the crowning of a new ZERO1 NWA United National Heavyweight Champion.  The announcement of a new NWA United National Heavyweight Champion predates the announcement of ZERO1 rejoining the NWA.  This title from all reports will become the primary championship for NWA Pro Wrestling Australia.  The first two entrants into the tournament are both former NWA Australian Champions Robby Heart and Jayson Cooper.  The tournament will fall under Round Robin rules, where the winners of their respective matches will go into the night’s Main Event and face off for the Title! The match brackets have yet to be decided.  This is set to explode into Cosgrove Hall as the best wrestlers from around the country compete in a night of back breaking, bone crunching action. This event is entertainment for people of all ages and it is a great night out for the family, so dont miss out and get your tickets now!

NWA World Jr. Champion Craig Classic heading towards a Tornado, twice!

NWA World Jr. Champion Craig Classic has already established himself as a major player in the National Wrestling Alliance in a very short time.  Classic won the NWA World Jr. Championship by defeating Mike Quackenbush in November 2010 at the Pro Wrestling Fusion iPPV November Coming Fire.  Since then, Classic has had successful defenses against Milo Beasley, Tommy Vandal, and even  traveled to Puerto Rico to defeat Erik Scorpion.  It was even announced with much anticipation that Classic would return to his home away from home in Japan to wrestle for ZERO1, by defending his championship against Munenori Sawa.  But before Classic can appear in ZERO1 for their Tenth Anniversary Show, he must defeat another former champion, not once... but twice.

"Tornado" Tony Kozina became the NWA World Jr. Champion only after three full years in the business.  Kozina has made his name all across the United States in true Territorial Fashion, spending time in Southern California, Washington and Vancover, moving to the Midwest, but really making every where he went, his home.  Aside from training Kyle O'Riley, Kozina has been known for a long time being a true professional and elevating the talent he works with.  But now, 11 years after defeating Vince Kaplack, Tony Kozina finds himself again in the underdog position, but this Friday and Saturday, Kozina finds himself with a wealth of opportunity.  He only has to pin or submit Classic once to punch his ticket to ZERO1 and reclaim his past glory with the NWA.  Craig Classic has to defeat the veteran to ensure he will be representing the World Jr. Championship in Japan.  We'll find out soon, who will face Sawa.

New Number 1 contender to the NWA World Jr. Heavyweight Championship

In a weekend where NWA National Champion Phil Shatter has his 12th successful defense against Caprice Coleman and Mike Posey successfully defended his NWA Tennessee Jr. championhip against Corey Hollis, The NWA in Charlotte had another defying moment in their first offering, crowning a new Number One Contender to Mike Quackenbush's World Jr. Heavyweight Championship.

Quackenbush first won the title in controversial fashion when he took liberties with the mask of New Japan wrestler, Tiger Mask IV.  Quack defeated the former champion, who prior to this event had faced the likes of Jason Dukes, Low-Ki, and Black Tiger Mask IV.  Since winning the crown, Lightning Mike has had defenses in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Nevada, Georgia, and Italy.  Mike Quackenbush has held the title for nearly 3 years.  He has a schedule title defense against former champion Tony Kozina for NWA Michigan on Feb. 20th.

This won't be Sal's first shot at Mike Quackenbush.  Back in October, Rinauro had a shot at the title in the Quackenbush-friendly Chikara Pro.  Championships are not an unfamiliar concept to Rinauro.  With tag team championships in ROH, NWA Anarchy, Deep South Wrestling and Full Impact Pro.  Rinauro has also held a handful of singles championships including a Jr. Heavyweight Championships in NWA Wildside.  In a NWA ring, could Rinauro defeat the man who's held the belt for nearly three years?  What do you think?  Leave a comment below. 

NWA World Jr. Heavyweight Title defended in Michigan

Fresh off the presser, a huge match up announced for NWA Michigan, of epic elemental proportion. On Februrary 20th, 2010, NWA World Jr. Heavyweight Champion, "Lightning" Mike Quackenbush will take on the former NWA Jr. Heavyweight Champion, the "Tornado" Tony Kozina. The mach is scheduled to take place in Hamtramck, Michigan.

Kozina, a veritable challenger to every title on the Indys has wrestled on just about every corner of North America. The Tornado is one of the most fundamentally sound wrestlers not only in this country, but in the World. However, his opponent is no slouch either. "Lightning" Mike Quackenbush defeated Tiger Mask IV to win the prestigious championship. Quackenbush has defended his championship against stars from New Japan, IWA Puerto Rico, AAA, and the NWA, along with International defenses in Italy. This match has all the makings to not only capture the Match of the Month honors, but perhaps, Match of the Year.
