WHY NWA PPV CROWD WAS SO SPARCE, NAMES POPPING UP ON NWA USA TV TAPINGS & MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2021-12-04 23:15:00

For those who are wondering why the NWA PPV tonight had such a small crowd, it was a situation forced upon the company just a few days ago.  The NWA was informed on 11/30 that since GBS Studios in Atlanta are government funded they were being held to a more restrictive standard and would not allow more than 90 fans to attend this weekend's events, including tonight's PPV.   

There were a number of fans who had tickets refunded from the PPV with the NWA's Kyle Davis personally reaching out to apologize and passing along the following message from NWA President Billy Corgan:

'To say the ongoing pandemic has been a challenge in running live events is an understatement, as it has for anyone who has been adversely affected by what remains this ongoing health and safety crisis. And though this latest setback will not deter us from going 'on with the show', we appreciate your understanding today so as to not have to turn anyone away at the door; as this is certainly a circumstance beyond our control.' - 

Raven started with the company last night as part of a new weekly TV series NWA USA appearing as a color commentator.  

Other names working the TV taping included George South, Jay Bradley and Wrestling Ball Legursky.  Bradley and Legursky will be linked together on screen.

If you are a fan of the old Nick Aldis-Douglas Williams British Invasion team in TNA, there are plans to reunite them on camera on NWA TV.

Madusa will soon have an on camera role for the company.
