In a surprising turn of events, tech entrepreneur and Twitter co-founder, Jack Dorsey, has taken over the reins of the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). This bold move has sent shockwaves through the wrestling world, leaving fans and industry insiders buzzing with speculation about the potential impact of Dorsey's leadership. This article will delve into the details of this unexpected development and explore what it means for the future of the NWA.
A Visionary Leader's Entrance
Dorsey's reputation as a visionary leader precedes him. As one of the co-founders of Twitter, Dorsey played a pivotal role in transforming social media and revolutionizing the way people communicate globally. His entrepreneurial spirit and innovative mindset have made him a prominent figure in the tech industry. Now, Dorsey has set his sights on a new challenge by assuming control of the National Wrestling Alliance. With a deep passion for wrestling and a desire to make a lasting impact on the industry, he aims to infuse his unique approach into the world of professional wrestling.
Resurrecting the Legacy of the NWA
The National Wrestling Alliance has a rich history that dates back to 1948. It served as the governing body for numerous wrestling promotions and boasted legendary champions like Lou Thesz, Harley Race, and Ric Flair. However, in recent years, the NWA had experienced a decline in prominence. Dorsey's acquisition of the NWA presents an opportunity to revive the organization's glory days. By leveraging his extensive business acumen and forward-thinking mindset, he intends to revitalize the NWA brand and reignite the passion of wrestling fans around the globe.
Dorsey's extensive network and experience in the tech industry provide opportunities for the NWA to forge strategic collaborations and partnerships. By aligning with other prominent brands and organizations, the NWA can tap into new resources, broaden its exposure, and attract fresh talent. Additionally, Dorsey's entrepreneurial background suggests that he may seek innovative business models and revenue streams to sustain and grow the NWA. By exploring opportunities such as merchandise licensing, cross-platform promotions, and international expansion, he can unlock new avenues for financial success.
Nurturing Talent and Storytelling
Professional wrestling is as much about compelling storytelling as it is about athletic prowess. Dorsey's vision for the NWA involves nurturing talent and enhancing the art of storytelling. By investing in creative writing teams, developing captivating storylines, and fostering talent development programs, the NWA can produce immersive and emotionally resonant narratives that captivate fans. Dorsey's commitment to diversity and inclusivity may also shape the NWA's talent recruitment and training initiatives. By fostering an environment that embraces performers from various backgrounds and perspectives, the NWA can reflect the diversity of its fan base and contribute to a more inclusive wrestling industry.
Jack Dorsey's entry into the National Wrestling Alliance marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the storied organization. With his visionary leadership, technological prowess, and passion for wrestling, Dorsey is poised to breathe new life into the NWA and revitalize its standing in the industry.

While NWA have some decent workers, they can't seem to do a thing IRL for a while now. I loved Powerrr when it started but it all went downhill. Poor booking is a thing. I know you can do better!

As both shows this week pretty much sum up to some wild testing over what I want to achieve with the NWA, I won't be doing much summaries for them. This is a one-time thing, though.  NWA USA Recap  NWA Powerrr - RecapNWA Powerrr was filmed for the first time in Jack Dorsey's ownership era, and needless to say, his impact on the show's storylines is already evident. It didn't take long for Dorsey to introduce new NWA wrestler Billie Starkz as his new acquisition for the company. The crowd erupted in a mixture of whistles and shouts, making the perfect debut setting for Starkz later on in the show. Her debut was against one of the leading heel wrestlers in NWA, Angelina Love. A clash of good versus evil. Starkz showcased her athleticism and indomitable spirit, while Love resorted to underhanded tactics. However, the match took an unexpected turn when Kamille, appearing as a replacement referee, executed a fast count in Love's favor. The controversial decision left the crowd in uproar and fueled Starkz's determination to expose the collusion between Kamille and Love. This is probably going to be a major storyline for the promotion in the following weeks, with Starkz beating Kamille backstage moments after the fight.
Dorsey then embarked on a mission to convince the enigmatic Matt Cardona to undergo a dramatic transformation and embrace the role of a babyface, joining the "good side" of the promotion. Recognizing Cardona's untapped potential and his ability to captivate audiences, Dorsey saw an opportunity to create a powerful narrative shift. Through heartfelt conversations and persuasive arguments, Dorsey painted a vivid picture of the positive impact Cardona could make as a fan-favorite, inspiring others with his charisma and athletic prowess. Dorsey's persuasive efforts gradually broke through Cardona's resistant exterior, sparking a realization that aligning with the forces of good could not only elevate his career but also allow him to become a role model for countless fans. Cardona then turned on fellow heel during a promo which turned into a full blown match in what became the main event for the evening. Is Cardona gunning for Tyrus' NWA World Championship? Will he get his shot? Only time will tell.

Beast Mode (Rating: 14) in 6:04 | Overall match score: 37 Gaagz The Gymp (Rating: 33) def. Rolando Freeman (Rating: 29) in 5:23 | Overall match score: 20
Moving on to the actual show, it was Thrillbilly Silas who defeated Sal the Pal in an extremely disappointing match which lasted under five minutes. The crowd definitely cooled down after the match and anxiously waited for it to end while it was still going. Match length: 4:52 | Ratings: Silas: 37 Sal: 33 | Segment Rating: 25
Moving on to the next match of the evening - In a thrilling tag team wrestling match, the New Age Unusuals, consisting of Billie Starkz and Brooke Havok, faced off against the Renegade Twins, Robyn and Charlotte Renegade. After a back-and-forth battle, Billie Starkz pinned Charlotte Renegade for the victory, leaving the crowd in awe of their performance.

Match length: 10:03 | Ratings: Starkz: 41, Havok: 31, C.R: 33, R.R: 32 | Segment Rating: 31
The next match was between Natalia Markova and Ashley D'Amboise. After nearly nine minutes, the fierce competition culminated in Markova emerging victorious by pinning D'Ambroise. Match length: 8:27 | Ratings: Markova: 34 D'Amboise: 37 | Segment Rating: 39
We cut to a short promo where D'Amboise is interviewed by Angelina love. Followed by an interview by Jack Dorsey, interviewing the women's TV champion, Kenzie Paige. Paige goes on to rant about how nobody in the division is willing to face her. She lists Max The Impaler as an example. As a result, Dorsey calls Max down to the ring together with a referee, and sets up an improvised main event: An NWA World Women's TV Championship title match between Kenzie Paige and Max the Impaler!Ratings: Interview Promo: 41 - Dorsey Interview: 42The main event went on for a thrilling 15 minutes. Max really gave everything she could to defeat Kenzie, who did not back down from her claims earlier, and fought Max with great effort. Many questioned Dorsey's decision to set up this match as a main event due to the relatively insignificant status of both wrestlers, but they were proven wrong when this match came out as the best of the evening. After fifteen long minutes, it was a draw - Meaning Kenzie Paige gets to retain her title. Match length: 15:00 | Ratings: Max The Impaler: 34 - Paige: 37 | Segment Rating: 40
 NWA Powerrr Recap - Week 2
We move right on to NWA's flagship show, NWA Powerrr! Dorsey quickly opens the show with a little speech, introducing the crowd to two new members of NWA's female division: Holidead, and Gwendolyn-Garnet Neodonna, who will face each other off in the opening match for tonight! Two relatively unknown wrestlers are picked to opened the show - A pretty controversial call from Jack Dorsey! However, the five minute match proved to be mostly mediocre, with Holidead getting the pin. Show Opener: 67
Match length: 4:59 | Ratings: G.G.N: 33 - Holidead: 37 | Segment Rating: 29
In the following match, it was Rhett Titus who faced Cyon. Both men provided a great match and proved that the NWA still has some cards up their sleeve! The crowd roared following a decent match between the two - They were pretty much evenly matched, but it was Titus who pinned Cyon for the win. Match length: 6:01 | Ratings: Cyon: 39 - Rhett Titus: 43 | Segment Rating: 40
Next up, we cut to a backstage promo - Mick Foley, NWA's newest hire, is apparently managing Billie Starkz! He hypes her up before her match against Charlotte Renegade. Starkz goes into the match with insane motivation, and gets a relatively easy pin - No fast pin against her this time! Foley Promo: 48
Match length: 7:35 | Ratings: Starkz: 40 - Charlotte Renegade: 30 | Segment Rating: 30
Next up, we see Tyrus backstage. He convinces Bully Ray, his fellow heel, to fight Matt Cardona. After four long minutes of convincing, Bully Ray agrees. Tyrus doesn't wait long and flees the arena with his belt. It was perhaps the best match of the evening, with Cardona losing by DQ after Bully Ray managed to piss him off just enough. Cardona leaves the ring angrily, while Bully Ray celebrates a surprise victory.Match length: 11:48 | Ratings: Cardona: 48 - Bully Ray: 36 | Segment Rating: 49
