It was a big weekend in the NWA, you could just feel it. However, I did not guess it would be this big.
NWA National Champion, Golden Boy Greg Anthony, lost the National Title to Jake Logan. Now this one is not all that surprising as Jake Logan is a great talent. He regularly appears in Texoma and Top of Texas and has been champ in both. He is known all over Texas and he is going to make a fun and interesting champ.
The one I did not see coming at all was the new NWA Women's Champ. Amber O'Neal (Gallows) has been a good champ. She may not have broken as much new ground as Santana Garret did, but she was very capable. She dropped the title in a loss to Jazz. Yup, that Jazz of TNA and WCW fame. So the title is still in very capable hands. It continues the tradition of real big name and talented women holding the best Women's title in the world.
NWA World champ Jax Dane retained, and his reign is now over a year long. His time maybe approaching an end. Keep an eye on the end of the year for Jax. With Jake Logan holding the National Title, and being based in Texas, it maybe time to move the World Title on someone else. Georgia/Florida has the North American Champ in Tyson Dean, who has successfully defended in Combat Sports Pro, and is making a fine NA champ. Who will Dane face coming up? Greg Anthony himself should be considered a top contender and Badd Blood always seems a threat.
As another important note, NWA World Tag Team Champs the Iron Empire will be defending the NWA World Tag Titles in Japan. No, not New Japan. That ship appears to have sailed. Rather it is a very small promotion Diamond Wrestling or something like that. Let us hope that they come home with the belt. It is one thing to always be dropping the belt in New Japan or even in NOAH, but this would be different. If they do drop the belts think Matt Rivera for World Title. After all, teaming with Rob Conway for the Tag title is the same route that Jax Dane took.
