NWA notes: New PPV & Women’s TV title creation announced

The NWA made two announcements during Tuesday’s edition of Power with another new pay-per-view and another championship on the way.

Following last Saturday’s Nuff Said, the first-ever NWA 312 will emanate from Chicago, Illinois, on Friday, April 7th. Chicago is NWA owner Billy Corgan’s hometown.

The PPV will feature the finals of the newly-announced Women’s TV title tournament where their inaugural Women’s TV Champion will be crowned.

Both qualifying matches and the tournament will take place on upcoming editions of Power. The first qualifying match will see reigning AAA Reina de Reinas Champion and MLW women’s Featherweight Champion Taya Valkyrie against Jennacide.

Similar to the men’s TV title, the women’s version will fall under the NWA’s Lucky 7 rule which states that after seven consecutive title defenses, the champion can cash in and challenge for the NWA Women’s title.

The title will be the ninth currently defended in the NWA.

Clearwater issued an open challenge going into the night which Latimer answered.

NWA to announce creation of Women’s TV title on Power

Another championship is coming to the NWA.

PWInsider first reported Thursday that the promotion will introduce a Women’s TV title on this Tuesday’s edition of Power with the announcement to be made by NWA USA commentator and WWE Hall of Famer Madusa.

It’s unknown when it will be introduced into storyline with next month’s two-night NWA 74 anniversary pay-per-view looking like a possibility.

According to the report, the belt itself is in the design stage and is being done by belt designer/producer Dave Millican.

The men’s TV title is currently held by Tyrus and, as noted by PWInsider, it holds a “Lucky Seven” rule where after seven successful title defenses, it can be relinquished for a shot at the NWA World title. The rule is somewhat similar to Impact Wrestling’s Option C.

It will be the eighth current NWA title, joining the men’s and women’s World titles, the men’s and women’s Tag Team titles, the men’s National title, the men’s Junior Heavyweight title, and aforementioned TV title.
