Rumors & News
March 31st, 2009 - January 6th, 2009
- Mukesh Ambani has been very pleased with the first week so far. He's stated that for the most thing have gone well.
- He is a bit concerned about the bulging roster, and wants to evaluate who he really needs.
- By the end of next week Ambani may cut the fat a bit. He realizes that there may be too many wrestlers on the roster currently. There are 60 current active wrestlers on the roster.
- Ambani did say however say depending on touring he might keep everyone he can due to possible injuries.
- Ambani likes Vince McMahon's three different brands. He did say three was out of the question, but two might have to happen for advanced touring.
- Ambani isn't happy with the current star power in NWA. He feels like they need more big time names to draw.
- Steve Austin who was signed, but then later reported to have signed with WWE has said to have had a major falling out with Vince. So again reports of his signing with WWE might too be false. Confusing much?
Rumored wrestlers in NWA's eyes
Matt Morgan
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Ambani likes Morgan's look, and rumors are Morgan isn't fully tied up with TNA
Tomko
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Ambani again likes Tomko's look, and is very high on him.
Wrestlers on the outs The following wrestlers are said to be very close to being let go
Adam Pearce
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Ambani didn't particularly like his work so far. He also isn't high on his look
Brain Damage
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Similar to Pearce Ambani just doesn't like him.
Osamu Nishimura
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- It's doubtful Nishimura will even debut in NWA. Al though a great technical wrestler that is about all he has to offer in Ambani's mind. The fact he's 37 also doesn't help his case.
Scorpio Sky
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Sky who a very quick wrestler doesn't seem to impress Ambani otherwise.
Davey Richards
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Ambani is generally bored with Richards. He has good speed, and is technically sound, but Ambani doesn't feel like he can do anything with him.
Zokre
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Don't be surprised to see him gone. Ambani was totally unimpressed with the tryout matches he saw.
____________________
- All those mentioned on the rumored on the outs are all but gone in most people's eyes. Ambani has said to signed the lower level guys to owner friendly contracts that are very easy to get out of. And with out much loss on the financial side.
Heavyweight Title Scene
Samoa Joe
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Ambani likes Samoa Joe, but worries about his weight issues. A candidate for the main event scene, but not necessarily ready for the belt.
AJ Styles
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Ambani loves AJ Styles, and said to have been very high on AJ Styles being in the main event scene.
Rob Van Dam
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Al though older Ambani is certain that Rob Van Dam is still a cornerstone of the main event scene. Ambani is certain about having Van Dam main eventing in the next few months.
Rhino
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Ambani likes Rhino, but is still questioning if he wants him in the main event scene. Ambani feels that the other 3 guys are 2 tool wrestlers, while Rhino is simply only good at brawling.
____________________
- So with that look at the main event scene those four names are certainly to be among the elite.
- AJ Styles is looked to the be the future of NWA
- Rob Van Dam is being looked at as someone to spark NWA up right away
- Rhino is the wild card. He could possibly get something going.
- Samoa Joe who's weight has been an issue as of late is said to be working out more, and on a plan. Ambani already has discussed issues with him.
- Your guess is good as mine on who will be the first NWA championship holder. But with the tourny coming up it's anyone's guess.
Impressive First Impressions Wrestlers who aren't too well known who impressed Ambani
LuFisto
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- LuFisto really impressed in her first match. Ambani has already mentioned her as being a major contender for the Women's title
Francoise
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Ambani is said to love Francoise on the mic, and feels like she needs a much biggere role already in NWA. Quiet the first impression.
Necro Butcher
To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
- Many though Necro Butcher wouldn't be liked by Ambani, but shockingly they get along great. Necro has to be very pleasant backstage, and very friendly with everyone.

A lot happened on the first edition of NWA Showcase. We saw Mick Foley & Randy Savage strike up a new friendship. Randy Savage the new General Manager has stated already in an interview that Mick will be with him to help him make all of his decisions. Don Callis & Jim Cornette tried to raise hell last week for Savage, but Savage has stated that they are banned from the back area. For the coming week we see the crowning of the new NWA Tag Team Champions, and we also see another title match with Kaz for the first time defending his Cruiserweight Championship Belt. Will Kaz retain the title, or will Jay Lethal end Kaz's streak at a week? Who will win between Beer Money Inc & LAX? And Samoa Joe shocked the World last night attacking Rhino. This week we'll see Samoa Joe face Rob Van Dam in one on one competition. With Violent Conduct 2 weeks away we are sure to see some matches shape up this week. Be sure to tune into NWA Showcase!
Tournament Announced
Originally planned as a larger tournament plans have been cut down. Bischoff, Foley, & Savage have come up with a 4 person tournament. The winners of each match on Showcase will go on to Violent Conduct. There we will see who is the first NWA Heavyweight Champion

Showcase starts out with the Cruiserweight Title Match. Jay Lethal is already in the ring, and Kaz's music hits.
Kaz makes his way down to the ring showcasing his NWA Cruiserweight title. Jay Lethal is looking straight at Kaz, and picks up a mic. He quickly tells Kaz how that belt is his, and that he will soon take it. Kaz smirks, hits him over the head with the belt. Lethal gets layed out before the bell even rings. We go to commercial
Commercial
When we get back the match is underway, but Lethal is visibly shook up from the shot to the head. Kaz continues to work on Lethal, Kaz is getting most of the offense, as Lethal ends up catching some offense out of no where. Lethal continues on the offensive, until Kaz randomly hits him with a punch to the head. The ref warns him as Lethal is layed out. Kaz does some mat holds, and continues working on Lethal. Eventually Kaz hits the Hangman's neckbreaker followed into a DDT for the win. Lethal put up a good fight, but didn't have what it took today. Kaz retains the Cruiserweight Championship.
Winner: Kaz

We go to the back where Scott Steiner is talking to a woman in the back. It's the first time we've seen her on tv, and her name is Cherrie as Steiner quickly called her Sweet Cherrie as he hit on her. She seems really uncomfortable with the whole interaction. He brings up how she has a match up next, and he has one later, and how they should out before to build up a sweat. She quickly pushed him off her, and walked away. The camera cuts out as Steiner starts smirking.

In the Back Jay Lethal bursts into Randy Savage's office as Mick Foley is sitting on the couch. Savage quickly gets angry at not knocking. They both soon get into a battle of words as Savage seems a little weirded out by how similar Lethal is with how he talks. Foley sits there laughing, as Jay Lethal demands a rematch for the Cruiserweight Title. Savage at first asks Lethal why he should get another shot if he just lost his match tonight? Lethal's charisma, and persistence quickly wins over Savage. Savage grants Lethal a rematch at the Violent Conduct PPV. Camera pans out as Lethal says OHhhhhhhhhhhh yaaaaaaaaaa I digggg it.

Ambani has reported on NWA's official website that Eric Bischoff has in fact walked out on the company. Bischoff generally was annoyed at a lot of the backstage politics within the company. He was particularly annoyed with having to work with Jim Cornette. Bischoff who is pretty well off financially said he couldn't be bothered to deal with such a company. Ambani has said that there will be an announcement on Friday's Showcase.
