NWA Ultimate Rivals: Tim Storm Nick Aldis Part 1
Welcome to the premiere of NWA Ultimate Rivals.
In this episode we will see the rivalry that ushered in the new era of the National Wrestling Alliance: Tim Storm & Nick Aldis. From #KingOfTheMountainTop to the #AldisCrusade, we will cover it all! Join us in two weeks for part two of this Ultimate Rivalry.Behind the Scenes at United Wrestling Network Primetime Live
Today we present a special behind the scenes look at how United Wrestling Network Primetime Live comes together. During a recent production we placed a camera in front of show Producer/Director David Marquez. His job is something like a Conductor of an Orchestra. Each of his commands are specific and believe it or not he’s speaking to about 28 Technicians and Engineers plus adding auditable “notes” to the Commentary team. When making live television not everything goes as planned and the director has to think on his toes causing the mood to become stressful yet energetic. For more information on United Wrestling Network programming please visit Hollywoodwrestling.com or on social media @CWFHollywood or @Unitedwrestling.

Imagine that, Dave Meltzer gets something wrong, again. It's nothing new really as he regularly gets things wrong as of late, so this isn't surprising at all. Meltzer has a habit of trying to make his 'wishful thinking' seem like credible reporting and when he does, he has a habit of getting checked.. And put in his place on it. And sadly, the "Meltzer Marks" fall for this, every single time as well.
It started out with this, Meltzer's own words on Twitter.
But since most 'credible' wrestling writers such as myself already know she's under contract to the NWA, I didn't fall for this line of bullshit. But tons of 'Meltzer Marks' sure did, as well as at least two dozen so-called 'wrestling news' sites on Twitter fell for it too as they posted the same thing.
This lead to Thunder Rosa herself to tease and play with Meltzer and the 'Meltzer Marks' by posting this on Twitter, knowing she was under contract to the NWA and wasn't going anywhere.
Then came this from Billy Corgan, president of, the NWA, who went ahead and put Meltzer in his place with the truth.
Of course you know, Dave Meltzer won't retract what he said and admit he was wrong. Lord knows how many times I've checked him, gave him proof that I checked him and in the end he blocked me because he didn't like being put in his place by me. Meltzer feels admitting he's wrong is 'beneath him'. Even though any blind man can see, just by what I posted here, that he called it wrong... Again..
I could go ahead and post hours and hours of 'Meltzer Marks' speculating on whether Rosa was gonna go to AEW or WWE. That's how much the "Meltzer Marks" fell for this line of bullshit. And I bet the two dozen 'news' sites on Twitter haven't and won't put a retraction that they too, were wrong because they, like the 'Meltzer Marks' fell for the wishful thinking that is now Dave's reporting.
Which is why there's people like myself, who know better and have the knowledge to know, when Meltzer is lying just to get click bait and attention to himself. You can thank me now for always knowing better.
Too bad, the 'Meltzer Marks' won't ever smarten up.. But that's why they are marks, they don't wanna smarten up, apparently.

Road Dogg Quits Twitter After Being Punked By Shane Helms
WWE NXT Producer "Road Dogg" Jesse James has announced that he is quitting Twitter.
"This is a message to all the people that have helped me along the way and maybe a few I've helped; I'm signing off of @Twitter it has been really great interacting with you all. #HOPE #SOBRIETY #SERENITY #OUDK #THANKUGOD #POSITIVITY," Road Dogg tweeted on Tuesday.
Earlier in the week, Road Dogg engaged in a Twitter argument with furloughed WWE producer Shane Helms, aka The Hurricane. Road Dogg and Helms went back-and-forth over the subject of wearing masks as a preventive measure during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In his initial tweet, Road Dogg was agreeing with a fan on Twitter, who noted how certain people from "The Left" were pushing fear into the masses and that people could contract the virus even while wearing a mask.
"That's common sense Jay and it's rare these days. But they think we're crazy too. Social media isn't helping that's for sure," he tweeted.
Helms replied to the tweet from Road Dogg by stating, "People get killed wearing seatbelts too. But wearing one still increases your odds of not dying. See how that works? That's common sense."
When Road Dogg "agreed to disagree" with The Hurricane, Helms responded with, "Yeah, I'll agree that you don't understand how odds or statistics work and I'll disagree that you have a clue about what common sense is."
Road Dogg said Helms wasn't being tolerant for someone who claims to be "woke," to which Helms replied with, "Never claimed to be woke, never had to. And tolerance of ignorance doesn't help anyone. People's lives are at stake, maybe you should try to "wake up" if that makes you feel edgier."

TRACY SMOTHERS PASSES AWAY
Tracy Smothers, who had a long-spanning career that includes runs in WCW (as one half of The Southern Boys/Young Pistols), Extreme Championship Wrestling (as a member of the FBI), the WWF (as Freddy Joe Floyd), Memphis Wrestling, Smoky Mountain Wrestling, Continental and countless other promotions passed away this morning following a long battle with cancer.
Smothers announced in November 2019 that he was battling lymphoma. In recent weeks, Smothers was also dealing with heart issues brought on from his past chemotherapy and had endured hernia surgery earlier this month. There had been several GoFundMe campaigns and benefit events to assist him in recent months.
Born and raised in Springfield, TN, Smothers broke into the business in the late 1980s, where he and Steve Armstrong teamed regularly as the Wild-Eyed Southern Boys, feuding with the Stud Stable, Robert Fuller and Jimmy Golden in Southeastern Championship Wrestling aka The Continental Wrestling Federation. That early era even included Smothers wrestling a live bear.
The team moved to WCW, where they had one of the best tag team matches of the era against the Midnight Express (Stan Lane and Bobby Eaton version) at the 1990 Great American Bash PPV for the United States Tag Team Championship, a phenomenal match that is still regularly used to teach tag team psychology by a number of wrestling trainers. The team was turned heel and rechristened The Young Pistols, feuding with The Fabulous Freebirds.
After leaving WCW, Smothers moved on to Jim Cornette’s Smoky Mountain Wrestling, where he had the longest, more consistent singles push of his career, including a great feud with Dirty White Boy Tony Anthony over the SMW Heavyweight Championship, later joining with DWB as The THUGS ("T is for TERRIBLE H is for HELL U is for UGLY G is for JAIL, because a THUG CAN'T SPELL") after turning heel.
SMW couldn't have asked for a stronger babyface for their audience at the time. Smothers also had a memorable feud with the late Chris Candido as well as other SMW regulars, including Brian Lee, The Gangstas and The Heavenly Bodies. The SMW vs. USWA feud in Memphis (which was so heated at the time that SMW fans that came to the shows nearly ended up in altercations at the shows) saw Smothers work in Memphis as a heel. When SMW shut down, Smothers continued on in Memphis.
He was brought into the WWF in the mid-1990s, one of many good in-ring performers who were hired to work undercard roles and put over pushed stars. Rechristened Freddy Joe Floyd, Smothers was utilized to help give heels additional credibility. The ring name was a tribute to Gerald and Jack Brisco, utilizing a combination of their legitimate first names with Smothers now billed from their legitimate hometown, Bowlegs, Oklahoma. With the exception of a short program with Justin Hawk Bradshaw (JBL), Smothers never received a push, but worked with every heel in the promotion at the time getting a push, including Triple H and Steve Austin.
As part of WWF’s relationship with ECW at the time, Smothers was allowed to be booked by Extreme Championship Wrestling and soon shifted over to working for the promotion full-time as part of the Full Blooded Italians act with James “Little Guido” Maritato and Tommy Rich. While Guido was indeed Italian, the gimmick at the time was that many of the other members were not. Smothers at the time was billed from Nashville, Italy with ECW announcer Joey Styles quipping that Smothers couldn’t find Southern Italy on a map of Italy. The duo would hold the ECW World Tag Team Titles and were often placed in the position of kicking off the live shows, an important position, since they were setting the stage for the rest of the show.
Behind the scenes in ECW, Smothers was the gatekeeper in many ways to get into the promotion, running workout sessions with talents before every show. Prospective talents who arrived looking for a job had to go through the workouts alongside ECW’s regulars and if they received Smothers’ thumbs up, they were likely to be given a chance to appear on shows, opening the doors to potentially getting a regular job for the company. Smothers was often credited by those working for the company as being responsible for helping them get better as workers and for helping the morale of the locker room in a major way. He was also legendary for his toughness in that circle, especially after a huge riot after a fan attacked Balls Mahoney, leading to full scale insanity that saw a SWAT team called to the building. In the middle of the chaos, Smothers refused to back down from anyone, even shadow boxing K-9 officers to keep them away before things calmed down.
After ECW closed, Smothers worked a number of ECW reunions, including the first One Night Stand, the only event where every member of the FBI actually all appeared together. When JBL got into a legitimate physical fight, attacking The Blue Meanie (who was working the show closing brawl with staples in his head), Smothers was among those who went after JBL and ran him from the ring. Angered over the situation, Smothers would challenge JBL to legitimately fight him (something no sane person would do, as Smothers was considered ridiculously tough in real life among those in the business, even if he didn’t try to broadcast it) but JBL smartly didn’t accept the offer.
Post-ECW, Smothers wrestled for a number of promotions, great and small, across the spectrum of the independent scene. He teamed with fellow ECW star Chris Hamrick as Southern Comfort, was a regular at times for Ian Rotten’s IWA Mid-South and ICP’s Juggalo Championship Wrestling. He was beloved on the independent scene, where he gave to a number of younger stars. In many cases, he was the first "name" talent they worked regularly with and Smothers never held himself above anyone else, choosing instead to help everyone get better, making locker rooms more fun and joyous to be in and providing a much-needed bridge from the past to today. There are dozens of talents in WWE, AEW, ROH and Impact today who were made better because they sat under the Smothers learning tree.
As a wrestler, Smothers was a hell of a hand and was a valued veteran who would pass on his knowledge and understanding of how to get the most out of the crowd to others. He was extremely loved in every locker room he was ever in and there’s no way to describe his passing as anything but a massive loss for professional wrestling. He could carry himself with credibility and was so versatile in the ring that he could veer into comedy without ever sacrificing that credibility, going from good back and forth wrestling to dance-offs with The Blue Meanie. He had that innate ability to read and turn a crowd for him or against him and could make them sway back and forth in the same match if he needed. In many ways, especially in 2020, he was without peer in that regard.
Smothers published his autobiography Everybody Dies (taken from a regular comment Smothers would make on the mic later in his career), co-written by historian John Cosper, earlier this year.
Smothers was only 58 years old.
NEW NWA WOMEN'S CHAMPION CROWNED
Serena Deeb defeated Thunder Rosa to win the NWA Women's Championship on tonight's United Wrestling Network Primetime Live PPV.
The win represents an incredible turnaround for Deeb, who had been all but retired after taking a Coaching position at the WWE Performance Center. Deeb returned to the ring as a full-time competitor after being released as part of WWE's cutbacks this past April. She has signed with All Elite Wrestling and the title win marks another milestone in that comeback run.
We are told that Rosa remains under contract to the NWA, so this is not a situation where her leaving for another company precipitated the title switch.
you can expect to see the NWA Women's title continue to be represented on AEW Dynamite as she'll be defending it tonight.

After accusations stemming from the #SpeakingOut movement earlier this year, Marty Scurll took a hiatus from ROH as the company began "an immediate investigation into the claims made against its currently contracted wrestlers."
Back in June, Scurll gave two statements about sexual assault allegations towards him. Below is an excerpt:
"In 2015 after a wrestling event in the UK, I had a brief consensual sexual encounter with a woman. In that moment, at a bar, in those circumstance, I had no cause to question her age. I don't say of of this lightly or to seek absolution for my ignorance. Although I did not become aware of her age until after the encounter, the reality of the age disparity is not lost on me. I understand that although our encounter was technically legal in the UK, my lack of good judgement that evening has disappointed many fans."
Re-signing with ROH in January, Scurll took over head booker duties, which are now reportedly handled by Hunter Johnston (aka Delirious).
Scurll has recently been removed from the ROH active roster page. Scurll currently doesn't have a role in the company.
The former ROH TV Champion is reportedly not fired from the company, but is still not involved with creative, nor does ROH have any plans to use him. He hasn't wrestled since February, and didn't appear at any recent tapings.

On This Episode of ECPW Adrenaline,
- Tony Atlas vs Slugga w/ Mr. BIG - The Tonga Kid & Snitsky vs the Disassemblers - The Powers of Pain vs Timothy Theory & Joe SloanTEDDY HART NOW JAILED IN TEXAS
Edward “Teddy Hart” Annis, 40, was booked into Tarrant County Jail in Fort Worth, Texas yesterday, a move brought about by Hart being named a fugitive from justice in Texas on 5/4.
Annis had been sentenced to ten days’ imprisonment in Richmond County Jail for violation of a house arrest he was under due to a previous arrest this past March in Virginia. While Annis resolved his March 4th arrest with that court date, he was incarcerated for the house arrest violation and after being jailed, was again arrested,
It was not clear until today why Annis was slated for a hearing this morning in Richmond regarding a potential extradition to another jurisdiction. However, Annis was transferred from Richmond City Jail and was incarcerated into Tarrant County Jail yesterday instead, so it appears that hearing had been canceled after whatever was preventing him from returning to Texas was resolved.
Court records in Texas list Annis as facing charges of Injuring a child/elderly/disabled person, evading arrest with a vehicle and possession of a controlled substance. However, there are the exact three charges he was arrested for over the course of two separate incidents in December 2016 and January 2017 in Arlington County, so it would appear Annis' arrest is related to a probation or parole violation that led to the warrant being issued for his arrest and return to Texas.
Hart/Annis was released from his MLW contract in December 2019 after several requests to be cut loose from his deal. He last wrestled in early February at an independent event in Florida, where he had been residing prior to his first arrest in Virginia.

the WWE NXT Arena on the campus of Full Sail University, the WWE Performance Center, and the WWE ThunderDome at the Amway Arena are among 17 locations being investigated by the Strike Team of the Orange County Department of Health Strike Team regarding where COVID-19 might be spreading.
it is believed that several trainees from the Performance Center and / or NXT talent made formal complaints about daily operations and protocols not being followed. A few weeks ago a couple of people spoke up at an NXT taping about what they called "anti-maskers" not following guidelines outside of NXT and training classes, while potentially putting others at risk due to their actions.
It was mentioned that WWE wants everyone to be proactive in following protocols when it comes to attending large events and to be conscious about what they are posting on social media. Things such as pictures of talent being unmasked in large gatherings, especially indoors, that could lead one to believe that they were acting in an unsafe manner are all things the company wants talent to be aware of before posting.
It was noted that WWE can't control how talent live their lives outside of WWE. Should another Covid-19 outbreak affect WWE, they could "pause" having fans inside the Capitol Wrestling Center while continuing on with virtual fans and potentially trainees depending on the circumstances.
As noted, WWE recently issued the following statement regarding the pending investigations:
"WWE is not open to the public, but rather operating on a closed set with only essential personnel in attendance. As part of on-going weekly testing protocols, Aventus Labs have administered more than 10,000 PCR tests to WWE performers, employees, production staff and crew resulting in only 1.5 percent positive cases as compared to the current national average of more than 5%. Additionally, extensive contact tracing takes place and impacted individuals are placed in 14-day quarantine and then only cleared after they test negative."

I can post acouple more but you get the point.. Which is why, this video from Impact with EC3 'kidnapping' Jimmy Jacobs is as lame a sit sounds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KysbLTEhv1Q
Proving again that you can't get rid of it if you're n ow the one creating it. Boom. So nice of Callis to continue validating my point, and for so long too. :)
