Other than hoping for a mere hint of nostalgia, I don't see the point.

Other than hoping for a mere hint of nostalgia, I don't see the point. Not enough indies, especially in the upper tier, really focus on tag team wrestling, so it would be nice if they brought up some teams that are excelling in their local areas and got some good matches that wouldn't normally happen because tag teams don't get flown out as much. |

Other than hoping for a mere hint of nostalgia, I don't see the point. I'm not terribly nostalgic about the Crockett Cup events of the '80s, but I do appreciate and enjoy history being brought up and into the modern era. It often seems like such things are forgotten, so I found this refreshing. |

Other than hoping for a mere hint of nostalgia, I don't see the point. That's the entire MO of the modern NWA though. Everything about the product is built solely to evoke nostalgia and operate as a throwback product, and if they have that history then f*** it why not? |

I don't want every wrestling show to be old school, nostalgia based. But I absolutely think there's a place for that in wrestling. Who better to fill that role than the NWA? |

Right, the Crockett Cup of the past had issues, maybe ones they can address here, but some tag team wrestling, some history being kept relevant, I can appreciate that. |

I hope there is a tag team representing AEW.

Wasn't the 2019 Crockett Cup really well received?

WWE has sports entertainment, NJPW has strong style, ECW was extreme, AJPW was Kings Road, Noah has modified royal road. Modern NWA is Wholesome Boomer Style. |

Wasn't the 2019 Crockett Cup really well received? Yeah it was. It a cross promotion event between ROH/NWA. There was plans for 2020 with a tournament and Scrull vs. Aldis in the main event. Where it looked like Scrull would be winning the NWA title. Then Covid happened. So maybe they dodged the bullet with that one. I'm interested in what the brackets look like. With doing it over two days makes me think it will be a large tournament. For every decent NWA tag team theres like three I don't care about. |

I hope there is a tag team representing AEW. I hope there's teams from multiple companies, like AEW, Impact, AAA, etc. |

Get FTR to finally step foot in the NWA, shocked it hasn’t happened yet.
I tried to give the NWA a shot. I really do like the idea of a more “old school” promotion, and more places for people to work the better. But I struggle to look past guys like Tyrus, Aries, the lack of music. They really need a hand in booking/hiring.

I assume FTR and Tully is a given here considering it's NWA. I know Khan had some words about how the women's event went, but they've still had some talent exchanges since then.
Lee Johnson and Brock Anderson would also fit the aesthetic, Arn in NWA again would also be really cool

We will be getting the brackets tonight at 6:05. While the other major tournament bracket announced today lacked all that much cross over, will be interesting to see who they got for this. I genuinely think getting Briscoes vs FTR could help the NWA.
Cardona is also defending the title against Aldis. Hopefully they aren’t already giving the title back for another 1000 days.

Cardona has so much more notoriety and awareness right now. It'd be a huge, huge mistake to give it right back to Aldis. He's so damn boring. |
