We go live to the announcing team of Gordon Solie & Joey Styles in front of the huge NWA Logo for the new episode of NWA Championship Wrestling. Gordon & Joey welcome the fans back with a lot of action scheduled on today's card. Last week, NWA Commissioner Jim Barnett announced the finals of the NWA World's Junior Heavyweight Tournament will be held Sunday, January 26, 2020 for the New Year's Brawl to be held in the Moda Center from Portland, Oregon. We will have more on that PPV later on in the hour today. There will be 2 two-ring battle royals that night plus several other matches. The men's battle royal will feature 30 of the top men in the NWA going for a $50,000 purse . The other two ring battle royal will see 10 of the top women in the NWA fighting it out for a $20,000 payout.
Gordon presents a special taped interview he conducted with manager Rock Hunter with NWA World's Heavyweight Champion Vader along with his new signees -- the United States Tag Team Champions the Assassins. Hunter says the Organization is growing is even better with the signing of the world famous Assassins. Both Assassins (very articulate Tom Renesto & Jody Hamilton) express their pleasure with joining the Rock Hunter Organization & Vader. The Assassins, while pleased to be US Tag Team Champs, want those World Tag Team Belts held by the pig farmers the Kentuckians ('Grizzly' Smith & 'Big' Luke Brown). Vader chimes in that this is the greatest organization in the wrestling world. Rock adds that they will be in a 6 man tag team match on today's show to demonstrate their power.
