There were way, WAAAAY too many NWA titles running around the territories to really have a definitive Triple Crown. But if I had to pick three to use, it would be The World, Mid Atlantic/Crockett US, and Mid Atlantic TV title. Going by those three then you have Dusty, Flair, and probably a few others as Triple Crown winners.
Aside from the World title, neither of those other two that Kahagas holds has a lineage that really goes back before the mid 90s. It just feels like complaining for the sake of complaining.
This guy who is really a Great Muta rip off has won three very prestigious titles hence the complaint.
So who is this asshole?
He does a Great Muta gimmick. Wrestles a similar style (Nowhere near as good though) and is basically an American version of Muta.
But again, your original complaint was "This guy has done what Flair, Dusty, et al. Never did." And again, that complaint makes no sense. The National title was activated in 1980, as Georgia's top title. Flair was never really around in GCW. Dusty won it, so did a few other guys. But then it was absorbed into WWF when Vince bought GCW out. It was reactivated in 97, with no ties to the Georgia lineage.
The North American belt has only been around since 94, when Turner split all ties with the NWA. It was the replacement for the US title. And yeah some big names have held it, but they were past their prime, and if Flair was gonna win it, he would've had to go to the indies to win it. Dusty would've needed to come out of retirement. And yeah, Jarrett held it, but you know how he got it? It was vacated and handed to him for the sole purpose of the NWA Invasion angle.
Methinks you are overestimating how "Prestigious" these two titles are.
