I'm not in the NWA either but an outsider coordinating the dates and being the tiebreaker vote is the best way to assure we don't have one territory monopolizing the champion.

Figured I'd put this here, since it's kinda the catch-all for NWA stuff.

 

As you guys know, I own the hour slot on the USA Network. As I said before, I plan to use the first half hour for Wrestling at the Chase, and I was thinking of opening up the second half to other NWA affiliates. Which brings me to the question of format.

 

Since, if we go this route, you guys would be using it more than I would, I was looking for some input on it. One way to go would be to have it be a rotating hour of hype, each promotion getting the entire thirty minutes for a week to do with as they will. This might not be the best way to go, as you couldn't really get any momentum with it, but it's an idea.

 

Another idea would be a half hour highlight reel from around the Alliance, maybe with a match of the week at the end. This gives everyone a national platform to get over angles, and helps build things like Starrcade a little better.

 

I think the second idea is better, but I'm open to suggestions. On the other hand, if there isn't really enough interest, then I could just run an hour of TV.

 

OR...Matt D could run it, get matches and angles from everyone, and put it together that way. That'd be really cool, though I'm not sure he has the time, nor inclination, to do it.

We need to figure out the booking of the NWA champion. No matter who it is, I'm calling first dibs for Saturday, December 24th and Monday December 26th

 

Edited dates. Day as right, the # was wrong.

The only place where the champ didn't tour for a week was Puerto Rico.

 

There would be shots here and there and some places where he just did weekends.

I was just about to post that about the champ working weekends in Puerto Rico.

 

In that case, I would request the champ for July 1-3 (or 2-3), September 16-18 (or September 17-18), and December 16-18 (or 17-18).

A weekend is what I'm asking for. Anyway, after July 1 is essentially fan fiction. Again, I use Flair in August of 1982 as precedent. He only worked the TV. No Mid South Coliseum match.

Whomever the President and Board end up being, Jim Crockett implores them not to make any drastic changes just for change's sake. With Ric Flair having just lost the NWA World Title back to Harley Race mere days ago in order to set up a rematch and title win at a supercard in the fall, Crockett would like assurance that this will continue as planned.

 

Flair is the man of the hour at the moment and although Crockett doesn't expect Flair to necessarily hold the title for as long as previous champions, deviating from this plan would cause some major issues in JCP's end of the year programs.

Central States stands with JCP.

I believe it should be up to a vote. After July 1, nothing that was *supposed* to happen *needs* to happen. In our alternate timeline, Flair isn't destined to win the belt at Starrcade.

So,

 

NWA President:

Bob Geigel or

Fred Ward (represented by KrisZ)

 

NWA Board:

Eddie Graham

Jack Tunney

Vince McMahon

Stu Hart

Don Owen

Jim Crocket

 

Am I missing anything?
