TNA and NWA to possibly end agreement?

Posted: Mar 19th 2007 By: mikeiles

Total Non-Stop Action (TNA) has exclusive rights to the World Heavyweight Title and the World Tag Team Titles but that contract is set to expire in the next few months. With this TNA will rename the belts to TNA championship belts. TNA has plans to introduce their own set of World and Tag Team titles very soon. One scenario being discussed would see Samoa Joe win the NWA title and then toss it down saying he's the TNA champion instead, much like Shane Douglas did in ECW back in 1995.

It is worth noting that at a recent NWA show in Canada, Bryan Danielson made a challenge saying he wants to be the NWA champion. The NWA committee met and once the titles are gone from TNA, Danielson is in line to be the next champion.

However, Brent Albright has also made it quite clear that he wants a shot at the "legendary 10 pounds of gold" as well. He cut a promo that can be viewed on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQUg7bUvG0Y. Could Brent Albright be the first native Oklahoman to hold the NWA World Title since Jack Brisco? "The Shooter" seems determined and has his game plan in place.
