TNA and NWA get letters from Congress

[thwak is T.hawk]

yeah the NWA thing is not gonna work.

since the NWA doesn't have any wrestlers under contracts and is only there for the promoters it's basically useless.

So is TNA just going to send Congress a blank piece of paper?

Probably.

At least Congress is playing fair and not just hounding WWE.

Is ROH next?

[Mr. Mediocre]

While ROH would, in theory, be next, I think it's obscure enough that no one in Congress (or in their offices) has ever heard of it. After all, they don't have a TV deal.

[Smarky]

Congressman: So, Mr. Jarrett, did Miss Jackie ever reveal to you the contents of that videotape?

Well, they do have a PPV deal.

How much would we mark if during the hearings, a congressman is wearing an ROH hat?

[Corporate H]

I think TNA are f***ed personally.

True, but they don't have the same level of exposure as TNA and WWE.

The potential certainly is there. Not having a testing policy is going to kill them.

Sonjay is screwed...

So, I get TNA, but the NWA? Are they even an actual promotion? Aren't they just like the heads of MLB or something?

The NWA still presides over many indy feds are aaprt of the NWA union, like in the old territory days.

And yes, Sonjay is screwed.

But still. ..I don't get why people are all like "NWA? What the...?"
The NWA presides over many of the more well-known indys, they can circuit letters through their.. . . . circuit.
In the southwest alone like 85% of feds are divisions of or at least part of the NWA. Isn't IWA-MS apart of the NWA because I remember they had to adopt some of the NWA's rules.

[Ratings]

Test: "...Ah, F***!"

[Hassan bin Sober]

How many hundreds or thousands of wrestlers are in the NWA? How could the NWA possible have any kinds of records of drug testing for dozens upon dozens of promotions throughout multiple countries?

[Chucklehead,baby!!!]

great, people are out cutting up kids and shooting world leaders but hey the real criminal here is pro wrestling

[WUMPUS]

Wow. Someone just NOW informed Congress that there's ANOTHER set of wrestling promotions BESIDES Vince's giant "Monopoly" game?

And they bothered to subpoena the NWA? Really? THE NWA?!?!

Further proof of the cluelessness helming this investigation. Gah. This will be a comedy of errors. Like listening to a pack of slobbering marks when wrestling comes up....

"Do Goldberg still 'rassle? I stopped watchin' when Dubya-Cee-Dubya went off da' air...."

Um, I don't think he "WRESTLES" anymore, so why would you have an interest in HIS supposed use of steroids?

"Who cares about that stuff! He dun whupped dat bathturd Hulk Hogan's AY-USS....HE'S DA' MAN!!!"

What well-known indies are still with the NWA?

Here are ones I know, and this is only through looking it up: Inoki Genome Federation.

That is all.

I'm glad they really intend to do something about the business as a whole.

[Jay Peas 42]

So, Vince sends JBL to testify, and Dixie sends Jarrett to testify. Will NWA send Gypsy Joe then?
