NWA Powerrr 1/20/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/01/nwa-powerrr-1132016.html

NWA Junior Heavyweight Title - Alex Taylor (c) vs SLADE

Slade waistlock takedowns him and rides his back. AT rope breaks and complains about the tights being pulled. AT slaps him. Slade takes him down and goes for the ankle lock. AT goes out and under the ring. AT comes from the other side and baseball slides him.

TVMA does a promo as we go to break. Tiff says The Hex is about to be history and asks who they are. The Hex come in. Marti says they are the first and longest reigning tag champs. The two teams argue and refs break it up.

We go to Beach Park Vista, which is some fancy apartment. Idol and Markova complain about Joe Cazana wasting their time with the inheritance. Idol says he knew she would be the greatest female wrestler since Day 1. He says they can't drop the ball. Markova says she will listen to him now but he needs to listen in the future. Idol says they got here because they listened to each other and need to keep doing that as nothing will stop them.

Silas Mason does a promo. He says the time is ticking for Thom Latimer. He says he's the one that's killing his wife and himself. He says he still has time to back out of their match but he won't. He says the title has twisted his view on the world and everything in it. He says it hurts him to know he wasn't good enough. He says Thom is looking at the only man who is capable of ruling and the man who is the champ of the world.

We go back to the match. Alex punches Slade then hits corner spears. Alex pulls his neck forward. Alex does a reverse figure four. Slade rolls him up for 2 and is hit with a back elbow. Alex slams him. Slade superplexes him. They trade shots. Slade hits euros and fires up. Slade overhead suplexes him. Slade hits a corner spear and double germans. Slade overhead suplexes him then fires up. Slade ankle locks him but Alex rolls him into the post. Alex lariats Slade on the apron. Alex tries to hit him with his boot. The ref takes the boot. Alex low blows Slade for 2.

Alex puts on Slade's headgear. Alex goes for a cradle shock and Slade ankle locks him on the bootless foot. Alex taps out.

Thoughts: The match wasn't bad. Alex is a good wrestler and Slade does his part. I don't think they did a good job of building up to this though. There wasn't much of a build and Slade hasn't really been built up for this. Alex was champ for a long time so this loss should have meant more. I've always been waiting for Slade to get a chance so let's see what he can do.

Bryan Idol does a promo. He says he's excited as he has done nothing but prove he is worthy of the history and legacy of this company. He says he got the TV Title and gets to take on Rich Swann tonight. He says Rich won titles everywhere he has gone but he's ready to go all night long. He says looks kill and so odes he.

The Good Brothers talk. Karl says when they walk in, the tag landscape changes. Doc says the NWA has some of the best tag teams but they haven't had an injection of Good Brother momentum. Doc says when the gold is on the line, it's the magic killer, a 1-2-3 and a too sweet.

NWA Women's Tag Titles - TV-MA (Tiffany Nieves and Valentina Rossi) vs The Hex (Allysin Kay and Marti Belle)

This is for the vacant tag titles. Ms. Starr and Greta are with TVMA.

Val and MB shove each other then all 4 girls fight. The Hex hit kicks. Val is sent into the corner and MB chops her there. MB corner hip attacks Val and Kay running corner facekicks Val for 2. Kay throws Val into the corner and chops her there. Kay enzugiri's Val and MB PK's Val for 2. 

Tiff gets in. Val trips MB from the outside. MB takes a running facekick + russian legsweep for 2. Val boots MB in the corner and foot chokes her. Val stomps MB's back for 2. They trade forearms. MB jawbreakers her. Tiff front facelocks MB and pulls her down by the hair. Tiff hits elbows to the head. Tiff sits on her back and armlocks her. 

Tiff side slams MB for 2. Val snapmares MB into a chinlock. Kay comes in and hits back elbows on Val. She stun guns her then running boots her. Tiff is on the 2nd rope and Kay hits a nasty chokeslam on her. Kay uranage's Val for 2 but the ref technically hits the mat 3 times causing confusion. Kay argues the count with the ref and Val rolls up Kay for 2.

Tiff is hit with a dominator + low flying kick. Ms. Starr pulls Tiff out. Kay grabs Starr and MB hits Starr. Tiff rolls up Kay and pins her.

Thoughts: The finish wasn't good and the messed up count added to it. They were having an acceptable match otherwise. Tiff got chokeslammed very hard here by Kay off the 2nd rope. Kay put a bunch of weight on since I last saw her.

The Hex beat up TVMA in the corner after. Greta chokeslams MB and Kay.  

Kratos and Odinson do an interview. They say they are at it again with BFT, who hasn't been around in a long time. Kratos says his grandma said just because you can bake one cake, doesn't make you a baker. Kratos says they came here to take a spot and says the cream always rises to the top. Kratos tells them to stay safe and Odin says, "awhoo".

Kyle Davis interviews Colby Corino in the ring. CC says he's happy to be here in front of the fans. He says there's a long recovery time for him. Kerry Morton comes out. He says he didn't come here for sympathy. He asks if CC can twist his neck and asks if he can play with his boy outside. He says everyone knows the Morton name outweighs the Corino name every single day. He says everyone knows he's the face of the NWA. He says the fans aren't standing behind CC and don't like him. Kerry says the fans don't give a sh!t about him.

He says the fans don't care when or if he is coming back. CC kicks him in the nuts. CC then takes off his neckbrace. Kerry exits the ring. CC says he might not be cleared to wrestle but doesn't need to be cleared to beat his @ss. He says it's not a matter of if he will come back, but it's a matter of when. He says it's sooner than he thinks.

Aron Stevens, Slade, Mondo, The Slimeballz and The Drake's do a promo. Aron says he's talking about winning. Carson talks about all the title holders in their group and cut away when they talk about The Slime's. Aron says they are worrying about getting better and better as that is what they do.

NWA World Television Title - Bryan Idol (c) vs Rich Swann

They lock up and Rich is backed up in the corner. Rich punches him and Idol rolls him up for 2. Rich avoids a sliding knee then dances. Idol shoulders him over. Rich cartwheels over him and flying headscissors him. Rich hits mounted corner punches. Rich is sent chest first into the buckles and takes a running forearm. Idol double underhook suplexes him.

We go to break. Natalia Markova says it's been a long time. She says she used to be fighting and chasing while Shotzi Blackheart was on top but now she's the standard. She says when you face her, you don't face the gimmick, you face passion. Shotzi Blackheart interrupts. She says she couldn't beat her 6 years ago and she won't let that change. Matt Cardna then asks Markova if she's seen Billy Corgan and she says he has left.

We go to Dr. Vik's Abode with TVMA. Vik shows off his place. He says he'd love to have TVMA here. He says they've got tons of space, a gym and an expresso bar. He says he wants to get them here. Vik tries to talk Spanish and fails. Tiff lays on his bed. She says if he's serious, she's serious.

Thom Latimer does a promo. Thom says it's crunch time. He says he has 7 days to get things in order so he's the man he needs to be to fight Silas Mason. He says Silas also has things he needs to get in order. He says he's gt 7 days before he loses his title and gets a blackeye. 

We go back to the match. Rich hits punches on Idol and buzzsaw kicks him. Rich hits a big splash for 2. Rich hits punches and Idol spinning tombstones him for 2. Idol walks up the buckles and moonsaults Rich for 2. 

Rich is stuck up top and gets hit with a euro. They fight on the buckles and Rich headbutts him down. Rich hits a top rope splash for 2. Rich misses a 2nd rope 450. Idol hits the unprettier and pins him.

Thoughts: It was a shorter bout that got broken up by other segments. It wasn't that special and was just an average match for the most part. Idol won as expected. 

Overall thoughts: It was a little better than what we normally get. The matches were all built up to a little at least and weren't random. None of them were that great though and that's one of the problems with the NWA - there's rarely ever anything really worth going out of your way to see. Slade/Alex was okay and Slade surprisingly won the Jr. Title. The Women's Tag Title match was acceptable but the finish wasn't done well and hurt it some. What we got of Swann/Idol was average. We got some stuff built up for next week as well which was good. I'd give this a 5 out of 10 as it was an average show.
