This is something I've never quite understood. Wouldn't you want a huge legend like Antonio Inoki listed as a former Champion in your company? He's even in the HOF. Why isn't he recognized exactly?

I honestly thought he was mentioned by the WWE as a champion once before....
Doesn't make any sense whatsoever, but then the NWA doesn't acknowledge Jack Veneno's title victory over Ric Flair either...

Didn't he pretty much screw the company over to get the title reign? I imagine at first Vince Sr. and company were just pissed off and embarrassed. As time went on Vince Jr. and company just kind of ran with it for continuities sake.

They've gone back and forth on it. They count it when they court Inoki but don't when they want to keep Backlund's uninterrupted reign.

Interesting. While we're on the subject, does the N.W.A. ever recognize Bobo Brazil's victory?

Me: What the hell is he talking about?? Discography for a title?? That's the wrong NWA!!! Oh wait, I'm the idiot who doesn't get jokes I may need a nap. |

Backlund explains this in detail in his autobiography.
