NWA is holding their 75th anniversary PPV as a two-night event on August 26 and August 27 from St. Louis, MO. Title fights are aplenty, but two stick out in particular. This may be the end of the line for Tyrus heading into retirement, and Kamille’s 800+ day reign atop the women’s division might be facing its toughest threat yet.
Kamille will be defending the NWA Women’s World Championship against Natalia Markova in the main event of Night 1. The selling point of the match is that Markova was the closest to beat Kamille during her title run, thus a rematch was decreed by NWA owner Billy Corgan. Kamille wants to end this myth that Markova is on her level, so the champ requested a no limits match where anything goes.
“I will end the myth that is Markova.”

The #OneTime Champ @Kamille_brick had strong words for challenger @RealNMarkova on this week’s #NWAPowerrr.#NWA75 will be no count out, no DQ, NO LIMITS. pic.twitter.com/0f1Vk4ysyn
Markova chose an interesting way to hype the bout by hitting the strip club to prepare her hardcore gameplan.
The main event for Night 2 will be Tyrus defending the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship against EC3. Stakes are increased to a bullrope match and Tyrus will retire if he loses.

EC3 is ready to devour Tyrus’ soul to become his final form as the Over Man.

Most of the matches for NWA 75 revolve around the sporting aspect of professional wrestling, such as Aron Stevens’ desire to lead Blunt Force Trauma to tag team gold. BFT will face off against La Rebelion managed by Vampiro. Press play, and enjoy Stevens deliver a promo as only he can.
At #NWA75 @AronsThoughts has promised DOMINATION and DECIMATION for La Rebelión!

However, there are a few stories with spicy heat. One such example is Chris Adonis backstabbing Thom Latimer. Adonis decided that the TV title is more important than their friendship.
Tim Storm and Jax Dane have been rivals for years. Storm unofficially retired to take a role at the commentary desk for the NWA, but attitudes fired up to have one more fight as a matter of respect. Storm wants the meanest version of Dane for this No DQ grudge match.
