https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgBLSaHUkaE

Published on Mar 1, 2018
Since December 9th, 2017, "The National Treasure" Nick Aldis has been the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion and the man who carries the famous Ten Pounds of Gold. On February 11th, 2018, Nick began the Aldis Crusade with Ten Pounds of Gold. A unique crusade that sees the reigning and defending NWA Worlds Champion facing over twenty plus opponents on four continents in sixty plus days. This past week in the United Kingdom, Nick Aldis faced seven challengers in nine days defeating each with the King’s Lynn Cloverleaf.

In this episode of Ten Pounds of Gold, we follow the champion as he returns to his hometown of King’s Lynn and the village of Docking where he grew up. From the shores of Exmouth, Nick Aldis explains why he decided to bring the Ten Pounds of Gold back to these venues in the United Kingdom. The story of Nick Aldis is often told from one perspective and now you’ll hear it from the champion himself.

Ten Pounds of Gold is a documentary series from Lightning One and documents the ongoing legacy and history of the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship. This famous championship’s lineage stretches back to 1948 with names like Lou Thesz, Jack Brisco, Dory Funk Jr, Harley Race, Terry Funk, Ric Flair, Ricky Steamboat, Sting, The Great Muta, AJ Styles, Jeff Jarrett, Adam Pearce, Colt Cabana, Tim Storm and more.

Rosemary On Scripting Her Own Promos, Impact's New Management, Laurel Van Ness Leaving The Company

Rosemary spoke with Sportskeeda on doing her own promos, Laurel Van Ness leaving Impact, and Impact's new management. Here are some of the highlights:

 
Impact's latest change in management:

"To anyone who's concerned about it, these past tapings that we just did in January, were possibly the most positive feeling in the sense that it felt very fresh and it felt like we had a direction, which I can honestly say was the first time in a year. This new direction under Scott D'Amore and Don Callis ... I know that Impact and TNA have constantly, through the years, asked fans to give them a chance. As a personal feeling, I honestly believe that if you were going to give Impact another chance, now's the time. I felt the difference backstage in one taping block. And I think there's really something there, going forward. And I'm excited about it. So, I hope other people can feel excited about it as well."

Laurel Van Ness exiting the company:

"Laurel's an amazing character and an incredible friend of mine. I know that she simply wants to go and expand and grow. She's still very, very young in the business, she has so much more to offer and she's already this good at doing a character, which is amazing. And I love her so much. She's so talented. Wrestling is fluid. It never stops moving and it's circular. There's never an end. There's no reason that down the road Laurel might not return to the Impact Zone. It's that right now her part of the story is over and she might show up at a chapter down the road. It's wrestling. Never say never. It's definitely a loss not to have her as such a strong character in the division. But there are strong characters waiting to debut and waiting to come up as well. And we will fill the void as we always have with every departure. Same as we did with Maria's departure. And we'll keep doing so."

Her character and how much of the promos are her own words:
"I really love the amount of trust Creative has in me, to bring this character to life since they don't really tell me what to say. They tell me what point needs to come across in the promo. They tell me to say it like I would. They don't give me any lines. And that kind of trust is huge in that they know that I know my character best and how it will come across organically. If you try to force the way Rosemary talks, it's going to come across as very fake. ... I would say 95% [of the lines are from me]. I definitely ask for advice and ask for help, if there's something maybe I can't figure out how to say. I never feel like I can't approach somebody in Creative for a suggestion. That's the openness of communication. You can ask for advice but they trust you to do it the way you would."

Rosemary also discussed her goals and Taya Valkyrie. You can check out the full interview by clicking here.
 

Taz On Why WWE Debut Against Kurt Angle Was The Greatest And Worst Moment Of His Career

Taz debuted in the WWE at Royal Rumble 2000 as a surprise opponent for Kurt Angle. A native of Brooklyn, New York, he received a huge pop from the Madison Square Garden crowd. He defeated the previously unbeaten Angle, rendering him unconscious with his Tazmission choke-hold. On the Talk Is Jericho podcast, Taz explained to Chris Jericho why with was the best and worst moment of his career.

 
"It was the greatest moment in my career and my worst. I will explain why it was the worst. When I came out, when I was in Gorilla position, Bruce Prichard was in Gorilla. When Kurt Angle was out there cutting his promo I said to Bruce that I hope they know who I am," Taz said. "I was afraid, because I was from ECW, the 'small, little bush leagues.' When they heard the heartbeat of my entrance, the crowd exploded and Bruce Prichard said to me that he thinks they know who I am. When I walked through the curtain and walking slow with a towel on my head, I had an epiphany that I was doomed, because the pop was not built by this place. It hit me walking down the aisle. I am not a spiritual guy, but it just hit me. I'm like, wow. I was still focused on the match."

Taz said he was unaware that his finisher was going to be labeled an illegal choke. He believes Vince McMahon misled him about the direction of his character. He also said Angle's lack of experience threw off the timing of the match.

"Kurt Angle wasn't super polished then. We worked physical, but when I hooked him in the choke and he got choked out, I didn't notice it until afterwards until I heard the commentary back. Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler were saying that I put him in an illegal choke, but that wasn't part of the shtick. I got swerved. There was no words told to me or by anybody that it was going to be an illegal choke. Those words never came to my ears until I heard the commentary. When I came through the curtain after that it was like a ghost town. Vince McMahon wasn't in Gorilla. It was a live Royal Rumble at the Garden, I thought that I had heat. If you go back and watch it, there was a German Suplex that I did to Kurt and he landed on his belly. What happened was when I grabbed Kurt, he popped up and I took him back down. I would always say to guys to let me control them. Kurt Angle, we didn't know each other that well in the ring. Kurt is aggressive, and I knew the timing was way off. I knew that if I went through that throw he was going to get hurt, I just knew it. I put him back down and then did the throw on my pacing. From what I feel and heard that freaked out the boss and those that were close to him.

"Everyone knows my rep," he continued. "When I first met with Vince McMahon we had this great meeting in a conference room at a hotel on a Wednesday afternoon because it was a secret since I was the top guy in ECW. It was, me, Vince McMahon and Vince Russo. We talked about money, the deal, that took literally around 10 minutes and then we talked about an hour and a half about everything else. He knew me, and the character. He saw the FTW on my wrist, but he said that he doesn't know we can do FTW, but that was the only thing. My concern was whether or not I can be me. I don't want to say Vince McMahon lied to me, but he had a different vision for me once I was there."

PWG EXITS RESEDA, CA FOR NEXT EVENT, MOVES TO LARGER VENUE IN LOS ANGELES

California's Pro Wrestling Guerrilla has moved their 3/23 event Time is A Flat Circle from the promotion's usual home in Reseda, CA at the American Legion Hall after publicly stating an error with ticket sales led to too many tickets being sold for both front row ringside and general admission tickets when the event went on sale today.

Instead the promotion will hold the show at the Globe Theatre in Los Angeles, which, depending on the configuration PWG is using, could hold well over 1,000 fans.  While PWG has run outside of Reseda in the past, it has long resisted calls to move to a larger venue, feeling that a big part of the allure of the promotion it the atmosphere and intimacy of the room it plays.

The promotion advised, in an announcement via Twitter, "If you bought a front row or general admission ticket that came through after the set limit in PayPal, you will be receiving an email soon with some options regarding your tickets. Please check the email that is attached to your PayPal account."

Time is A Flat Circle is timed for the same weekend New Japan Pro Wrestling will be running Long Beach, CA.

The show will feature:

*PWG champion Chuck Taylor vs. Keith Lee.

*Matt Riddle vs. Zack Sabre Jr.

*Will Ospreay vs. Adam Brooks.

*Rey Horus vs. Joey Janela.

*Desmond Xavier & Zachary Wentz vs. Flamita & Bandido.

*Jeff Cobb vs. Jonah Rock.

*Brody King vs. Jake Atlas vs. Eli Everfly vs. Douglas James.

Tickets for the event are on sale now at www.ProWrestlingGuerrilla.com.

DID FOX SPORTS 1 HOSTS HINT AT WWE-FOX RELATIONSHIP?

Banter during the final moments of the 2/28 FOX Sports 1's Speak For Yourself series may have hinted at a future relationship between World Wrestling Entertainment and FOX.

In the last few minutes of the episode, hosts Jason Whitlock and Colin Cowherd discussed Cowherd attending Tuesday night's Smackdown Live taping at the Staples Center in Los Angeles with Cowherd, who has knocked pro wrestling and its fan base in the past (despite growing up watching Don Owens' Pacific Northwest promotion) praised the experience, comparing the show's atmosphere favorably to a rock concert.

Cowherd noted that he met Stephanie McMahon at the event and commented that WWE was a "professionally run organization," describing, "It was fun.  I had a blast....we laughed for two hours." 

Whitlock noted that he watched pro wrestling as a kid and interestingly stated he was, "looking forward to perhaps getting more involved, watching pro wrestling in the future."

Cowherd responded, "You should.  A very good sport.  Coming to a network near you..." leading to the hosts laughing as their show went off the air.

As initially reported by Sports Illustrated writer Richard Deitsch yesterday, a number of FOX Sports executives, including FOX Sports President Eric Shanks, FOX Sports Producer Jacob Ullman and Cowherd were all at the taping.

WWE is in the process of negotiating a deal for its television rights.  Whether the banter was specifically meant to hint at FOX potentially landing those rights or not still remains to be seen, but the comments have certainly raised a few eyebrows
