Welcome to PWInsider.com's NWA Powerrr TV on COMET TV coverage!
We see Billy Corgan and Bryan Idol demand to know we are ready for NWA Powerrr.
The announcers are Joe Galli, Danny Deals and Tim Storm. Storm is much better in this role as veteran than he was doing the Baron Von Raschke knockoff.
After the opening montage, Kyle Davis was in the ring interviewing new NWA Tag Team Champions The Country Gentlemen with Joe Cazana. Cazana said he predicted they would be champions and now they are. He told Davis to shut up. They were told they had to face a mystery team. Cazana said they are the champions and they did it by the book.
They showed footage of an NWA training seminar, talking about the importance of holding the NWA Women's Champion. New Champion Tiffany Nieves praised herself and said she makes the place near perfect. She complained she's going to have to face Gisele Shaw in a stipulation match. Sjhe knocked Natalia Markova, who hit the ring. The monstrous Greta grabbed Markova by the throat and....they went to a commercial for the NWA 78th event? Holy odd editing, Batman.
When they returned, Bryan Idol cut a promo about challenging NWA National Champion Mike Mondo tonight. He said to make your legacy, you have to do it day by day. He promised to take the belt and warned Mondo he was going to wonder who was going to save him now. He promised,:"Looks Kill and so do I."
The Pope with Mims vs. Richard Adonis
Pope is the former Elijah Burke. We've had Mims on for interviews a few times and he's always been a great conversation. He joined the announcers. Some masked men stood in the aisle. Pope was in control early but then was caught with a series of armdrags. Pope cut him off with a clothesline. Adonis nailed a leaping back elbow but missed a running knee in the corner. He caught Pope with a double stomp and covered him for a two count.
Pope took control and placed Adonis on the top. He chopped him hard and set up for a superplex. Adonis fired back and headbutt him off the top, then came off the top with a flying clothesline. Adonis caught Pope and took him to the mat, locking in a sleeper. Pope knocked him from the top but was caught with a kick to the head. Adonis set up for a moonsault but Pope rolled to the floor. The referee began counting Pope out. The masked men hit the ring and attacked Adonis. Pope rolled back in the ring, dropped a fist and scored the pin.
Your winner, The Pope!
Adonis showed some decent potential here and this was more competitive than you'd expect going in.
Backstage, The Pope said he was feeling strong and rejuvenated. He asked Mims if he saw what happened. Pope said everything came together. Mims congratulated him, but said that when he watched, the masked men did the work. Pope won but he needed the help. Pope said he didn't need the help but there's a difference between needing it and having the preference. He chose preference.
Back in the ring, Eric Smalls was waiting for his open challenge opponent.
It was Big Cuzzo, who towered over him.
Eric Smalls vs. Big Cuzzo
Cuzzo kicked him down and nailed several punches. Smalls bit his hand as Cuzzo went for a chokeslam. It didn't help as he was slammed and pinned.
Yoir winner, Big Cuzzo!
Daisy Kills celebrated with Cuzzo and stole Smalls' jacket.
Daisy Kills said Cuzzo is going to get the job done and that Smalls was a joke.
Mike Mondo was prepping for his match as Aron Stevens watched on. Wrecking Ball Legursky showed up and said he's 6'4 and Patriotic. He wanted to be in Stevens' crew. Stevens told him no.
Kyle Davis interviewed former NWA Champion Trevor Murdoch, who announced he would retire after The Crockett Cup. Murdoch said he wanted to thank the fans. He said he got the chance to have a 27 year career in the business that he loves and he loves pro wrestling with every bit of himself. He was lucky. he was trained by Harley Race and got to live and train with the greatest Japanese wrestlers. He got to have his name announced in Madison Square Garden.
Mike Knox entered the ring with a present. It was a ring robe. He then brought a crown out and placed it atop Murdoch's head. He then said he wanted to look at all the fans and tell them how stupid they all look to believe he would really retire. He mocked the fans for believing him. He said a King never retires and declared himself King Trevor Murdoch the First.
NWA National Champion Mike Mondo with Aron Stevens vs. Bryan Idol
Mondo attacked and intensely worked him over early. Idol caught him with a Slingblade and nailed a series of chops in the corner. Idol nailed a double underhook suplex. Mondo cut him off and nailed a low dropkick, knocking him off the apron to the ring steps. Idol was worked over on the floor. Idol was then pulled under the ring apron, trapping him as Mondo wailed away on him. Mondo nailed a knee strike and scored a two count.
Mondo cinched in a side chinlock and worked over Idol. Idol fired back but was drilled back to the mat. Mondo acted like he was going to bite Idol's eye but was blocked. Idol tried to battle fisticuffs with Idol and then nailed a superkick. Idol nailed a moonsault off the top for a two count. NWA Junior Heavyweight Champion Slade came to ringside (he's part of Idol's stable) but NWA Champion Thrillbilly Silas Mason came out and nailed him on the floor, working him over.
Mondo went to the top and nailed a flying headbutt on Idol, who kicked out at the last second, Aron Stevens argued with the referee, allowing Kerry Morton to hit the ring and drill Idol with a chair. Mondo nailed the Gutcheck and scored the pin.
Your winner, NWA Champion Mike Mondo!
Silas Mason confronted Morton, who ran out of the arena with Mason in pursuit.
NWA Tag Team Champions The Country Gentlemen,AJ Cazana and KC Cazana with their father Joe Cazana vs. mystery opponents is the main event.
There fans in an entire section mocking Cazana for looking like Col. Sanders of KFC fame.
The challengers were Thom Latimer & El Dragon Nihan Latimer looks 30 years younger with the short hair.
KC started, got wiped out by Nihan and ran to tag out to AJ. AJ didn't fare much better. Latimer tagged in and cleaned house on KC, nailing a hiptoss. KC went to the floor. Thom followed but was caught with a clothesline by AJ. They stomped Latimer and worked him over. They worked over Latimer for some time, tagging in and out. Nihan finally gets the hot tag and cleans house, sending the Cazana's heads into each other. He sent KC to the floor.
AJ was grabbed. Latimer went to come off the ropes but accidentally nailed Dragon. The Cazanas tossed him over the top but turned into the rising Dragon, who clotheslined him down. They raked his eues and nailed him with a spinebuster for a two count. Dragon charged but was hit with a "loaded" book and pinned.
Your winners and still NWA Tag Team Champions The Country Gentlemen!
Latimer and Dragon had words in the ring, upset with each other, after the bout. Latimer hugged Dragon but was laid out with a big right hand. Dragon walked out, leaving him down on the mat. He stopped, returned and nailed a spinebuster and began working him over with punches. The referees tried to intervene but were powerless. Manager Brandon McCord came out and the idea was that The Dragon had joined McCord's Collection.
That's it for this time.
