NWA Oklahoma Title Declared Vacant; Albright Schedule Forces Title Open

Posted: Sep 5th 2008 By: CMBurnham

When Brent Albright was declared the NWA Oklahoma Heavyweight Champion after defeating Slam Shady in a unification match of the Oklahoma title and the Universal title on June 13th of this year in Tahlequah, OK, he was also in pursuit of the NWA Worlds title then held by Adam Pearce. On August 2, 2008 Albright defeated Pearce for the NWA World title in New York City at a Ring of Honor show. When one becomes the champ, one also inherits the tough and busy schedule of World Champion. Taking this in consideration, Albright and the NWA championship committee have agreed that he will turn over the title and declare it vacant, thus making the title once again up for grabs. Albrights schedule has seen him face Pearce on numerous occasions and recently facing former WWE star Trevor Murdoch in Texas. He is scheduled to defend the title in an nonsanctioned match this weekend. As for the NWA Oklahoma Championship and it's future, promoters plan to make an announcement in the next few weeks to determine when and where the title will once again be on the line.
?Stars Under The Stars? is coming to Tahlequah, OK at the Rodeo Arena on Saturday, October 4th. The Arena is located right across from the Cherokee Casino on HWY 62. Tickets go on sale September 12th and will be available at RPM Paintball in Tahlequah and via the internet www.nwaok.com, prices are Ringside $7, General Admission bleachers only $5, kids 8 and under free GA.
