Adam Pearce has words for Shatter, Blue Demon Jr., and The NWA Board of Directors

CHARLOTTE, NC — February 14, 2010 — NWA National Champion Phill Shatter successfully defends his belt, defeating “Scrap Iron” Adam Pearce on Valentine’s Day here.
The win gives the “Universal Soldier” number one contender status and a March 14 encounter in Charlotte with current NWA World Champion Blue Demon Jr.
But Pearce, a 2-time former NWA champ, maintains those in the NWA have it in for him. He now claims he never lost the world title to Blue Demon Jr. in 2008, and says he has never received his rematch. He warns that he’ll keep coming back to Charlotte “month after month after month” to set things straight with both Phill Shatter and Blue Demon Jr.

Don’t miss out on the huge March 14th card of NWA: New Beginnings! For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit http://www.NWALegends.com/nb.htm

Is the NWA Returning to Charlotte?

Roughly this time last year, JD Costello and Jay Joyce announced their plans to run with the NWA in Charlotte. Not without controversies, NWA Charlotte was able to put together a series of shows. Featuring the talents of NWA National Champion: Phil Shatter, NWA Anarchy’s Mikal Judas and Truitt Fields, NWA Women Champion: MsChif, legends from the Mid-Atlantic, former NWA World Champion: Raven, and an up-incomer in Ryan O’Riley. NWA Charlotte produced a weekly television show that is still available at NWA Unleashed. Unfortunately, the promotion ceased operations on the 4th of July with the following statement.

“We wanted a perfect ending. Now we’ve learned, the hard way, that some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment, and making the best of it, without knowing why.” – JD & Jay

There were several talks of revival, but nothing ever materialized. However a series of messages from long time NWA Legends promoter could mean the return of wrestling in Charlotte.

On November 10th from Greg Price’s Twitter

You guys hear that wrestling is coming back to Charlotte on a regular basis? No fruits and fairies this time, though!

And again on the 12th

Wrestling returns to Charlotte! Complete details will be announced by Christmas with monthly Sunday afternoon shows beginning in February!

But the biggest tweet came yesterday and also posted at the NWA Showcase Facebook

Okay, it’s official… NWA: New Beginnings! kicks off Sunday afternoon, February 14, 2010 at the Hilton University Place hotel in Charlotte! Like they used to say, the name on the marquee says W-R-E-S-T-L-I-N-G, so expect to see the very best the National Wrestling Alliance and this area has to offer! This is gonna be a LOT of fun, folks!

Apparently the folks of Charlotte have some NWA Wrestling to look forward too. There hasn’t been too much information released, but seeminly Greg Price and the NWA are back to their on-again relationship and the folks of Charlotte are the ones who are winning.

Who do you want to see in the new NWA Promotion in Charlotte?
