TNA going it alone?

Mike Johnson is reporting that TNA will be losing the rights to the NWA name and the NWA titles in the next several months. TNA has plans to introduce their own set of World and Tag Team titles very soon. One scenario being discussed would see Samoa Joe win the NWA title and then toss it down saying he's the TNA champion instead much like Shane Douglas did in ECW back in 1995.

Over the weekend, at an NWA show in Canada, Bryan Danielson made a challenge saying he wants to be the NWA champion. The NWA committee met and once the titles are gone from TNA Danielson is in line to be the next champion.

Whoever wrote that is full of BS. TNA has the rights to the NWA World Title and NWA Tag Team Titles until 2014.

Re: TNA going it alone?

It would make a lot more sense if they did drop the NWA.

Get the NWA out!

Hmmm...that don't have the same ring to it.

The thing is, the NWA Title has 60+ years history and honor to it. The new title wouldn't have any credibility yet.

Yeah, but it would make more sense to have TNA titles on TNA instead of NWA titles on TNA.

Honeslty most fans today don't even know what NWA is. I am 24 and I don't even remember when NWA was on, I have only watched it on video or DVD. It doesn't really mean much to most people.

Re: TNA going it alone?

TNA is about traditional old school style wrestling, I don't think they would do something like ECW did and disrespect the NWA titles (so I doubt we will see something like what Shane Douglas did). Unless TNA is willing to end the contract they have with the NWA, we won't be seeing a TNA world or tag title for several years.

Tna is theory is about traditional old school style wrestling. But in reality, it's a horrible horrible confusing WWE lite.
I wish my sex life was like ECW, first you get a One Night Stand followed by 2 months of nostalgic orgasms and then 6 months of constant sucking.

A little off point I know, in my mind they started off with the theory of fusing that with the X-Division, but somewhere along the way they ended up being closer to what Eric has described. I guess ratings weren't high enough being more traditional but I honestly think if they'd stuck with their original blueprint they'd be closer to WWE (though possibly not by much) than they are now.

People are crying out for a genuine alternative to WWE, not for something that reminds them of WWE in anyway, particularly when WWE themselves have about 45 hours of their type of programming on TV each week!!
