Last night on UWN Primetime, The Pope D'Angelo Dinero (AKA Elijah Burke) defeated Zicky Dice in the Main Event to become the new NWA TV Champion ending Dice's 9 month reign.
This marks the first title of a major promotion that he has ever won in his career.

It's wild it took him this long to win a title belt. Good for him, honestly.

I wonder if this frees up Dice? I’d love for him to pop up somewhere major.

I know nothing about this Zicky Dice guy so I won’t speak on his abilities, but man are those some bad tattoos. What’s up with the almost Undertaker emerging from his trunks!?

About damn time. Burke's been a woefully underutilised talent almost his entire career.

Cagematch.net only lists Billy Corgan and Eli Drake on their roster. But Cagematch.net isn’t really the bear source for contract info. But what else is there? The NWA stuff doesn’t list a roster and just hawks stuff on their online store. |

Wiki so take with grain of salt Anderson and Storm are no longer with the company, and Steiner was paid per show, but most of the bigger named have been used in UWN or promotional materials. Not sure about guys like Homicide. |

I wish there was a way for us to know what the extant of these contracts were. Especially with the pandemic you’d figure they’d have to just be paid by appearance deals. I doubt anyone is getting guaranteed money. So who can’t these folks work for? With NWA and MLW these contracts just seem like little roadblocks in case WWE or whoever wants to snatch up their guys and offer much bigger pay and opportunities. Court Bauer of MLW flat out said in one interview I read that his talent can wrestle for anyone including on TV as long as it isn’t WWE TV. |

All I know about Zicky Dice is that I cringe when he shows up as a guest on people's Twitch channels. He's...very much...and I'm...not the best at enjoying that much.

Wild stat but glad it finally happened. TNA should have strapped him up back in the day but dude can still talk his ass off.

Sorry I couldn’t resist I’m glad both are around, but MLW comes off as the leftovers promotion and NWA come off as the leftovers of the leftovers promotion. Like, “f***! Everyone with name value is either signed or facing a scandal. Who can we still get?” |

Everyone with name value is either signed or facing a scandal. Who can we still get?” The NWA comes off as that but MLW not so much. I say this because there roster isn't based on name value and never really was. They are the ECW so to speak. Yes they lost some people to the WWE and AEW but Jacob Fatu is legit. Hammerstone is legit. Those guys are home ground guys and many see as guys AEW or WWE would signed as future stars. MLW where able to lock these guys long term deals. The thing about the NWA is they don't pay that much and the Pandemic really shot them in the foot to what they had. The stars power they did have are slowly moving on. James storm just returned to Impact. Mr. Anderson is gone. Ricky Starks left who was there hot up and comer star. Since this whole NWA weekly PPV thing, I heard nothing about really since week 2. AEW is trying to get Thunder Rosa. |

I wish that Samoa Joe feud hadn't killed him dead, but there was no real coming back from "let's have him on camera trying to spend donations on sex workers and adopt dogs for dogfighting, like explicitly say that's what he's doing. This isn't super racist or anything...." |
