Man, I know some of y'all gonna be mad, but.....


:scust:

There's such a thing as having TOO MUCH nostalgia.
True. I love that Corgan is trying to make NWA an alternative for fans that want and miss old school southern rasslin, but I didn't think they were going to do a carbon copy of the OG NWA Mid-Atlantic studio.

I'm rooting for them, because the 10 Pounds of Gold Series has been excellent. I don't mind that he wants to keep NWA a small-scale no-frills promotion, it's unique in this day and age, but you still need to inject some modern qualities into your presentation.

It's going to be a tough go for this new series. Out of all notable North American promotions, NWA is dead last (yes, even behind ROH) and I hope they can find their niche with an audience and a solid roster. A roster is where they are really going to struggle because AEW, Impact, WWE, ROH, and MLW have everyone semi-decent locked up. I don't want to see a bunch of Atlanta-based jobbers filling out half the show every week.

Hopefully Corgan can keep borrowing and partnering up with other promotions for future tapings and events. Getting CMLL & New Japan to send talent to their Crockett Cup was a pretty deal, IMO. Hopefully that door is still open for future exchanges. Would love to see Aldis head to NJPW for a tour or two and defend the belt there.

Yeah, that seals it. I'm good without this.

:francis:

Literally everything about this screams that it's meant to appeal to the worst "IT USED TO BE BETTER" parts of wrestling fandom that absolutely refuse to even attempt to like anything new.

I'mma keep reading about it, and I really hope the brehs on here that plan on watching enjoy it, but I already know this ain't for me.
