It’s time for NWA Power, our commentary team is Tim Storm,Velvet Sky, and Joe Galli.

Joe Galli is in an empty arena with the number one contender, Chris Adonis, who is challenging Tyrus for the world title. Adonis says he feels underappreciated, but this is his shot. He tells Tyrus that if he applies the master lock it is all over. Tyrus then shows and his reaction is congratulations, but he is the undisputed NWA world champion. Tyrus says that for the Masterlock, he has to dominate, and he doesn’t think Adonis can lock it on the champ.  

We get another video for Ashley D’Amboise and Kenzie Paige from last week hyping their upcoming match.
