What Is NWA?

NWA is a professional wrestling promotion founded in 1948. It was one of the first professional wrestling promotions in the United States. NWA has been described as “The world’s first major independent wrestling company”.

The promotion’s biggest stars during this time included Buddy Rogers, Arn Anderson, Ole Anderson, and Ric Flair. In the late 1980s, it was sold to World Championship Wrestling (WCW). WCW attempted to make it into their own exclusive territory, but this eventually led to bitter rivalry between the two promotions.

Today, NWA operates as a subsidiary of WWE.
