NWA Powerrr Episode 14, My Thoughts

Hello, everyone! It's time once again to feel the powerrr! That's right, it's time to once again check in with the superstars of the National Wrestling Alliance as they go through another episode of mat action and madness! Before we continue on, I want to apologize for not being as regular with these looks as I would have liked. Life has been wreaking havoc with me, and as a result, I couldn't devote a lot of time to doing these weekly like I wanted to. But I am intent on getting caught up, so let's do this!

Before we begin, I suggest you watch the episode before reading this blog entry. And with that, let's feel the POWERRR!

Recap time!

Why is it Scott Steiner gets to have music on the regular show and everyone else doesn't?

God, do I love that theme song. Can't go wrong with Dokken.

I like Stu Bennett. 5000% better and less annoying than Jim Cornette.

And here come the Rock 'n' Roll Express!

Uh, Rob? You got your belt upside down. There you go!

Morton with the standard babyface promo, delivered with conviction.

And we got some brackets for the NWA TV Championship! Ricky Starks and Zicky Dice are in a bit of a spot, though. Who knows who they're going to face in this tournament. Tim Storm isn't in that bad a position. He's only got two potential opponents to face. But the next episode of Powerrr will reveal who will fill those two open slots.

Like Tim Storm, The Question Mark only has two potential opponents to face: Trevor Murdoch...or Wild Card Thom Latimer.

Zicky Dice rocking that Magnum P.I. Hawaiian shirt.

I got the reference, Zicky!

Man, Ricky is ON FIRE!

Big bang, what?

...somebody better make sure that Ricky Starks is well-fed before his matches. Don't want anyone to get eaten. He'll likely end up in jail.

Match #1 - NWA TV Title Tournament Qualifier - Dave Dawson vs. Zane Dawson

 The halves of a tag team facing off in this tournament.

Looks like them Dawson boys are perfectly willin' to throw down tonight...

And Zane Dawson gets the win with one big punch to Dave's mug!

Winner: Zane Dawson

Zane's wrist and hand have seen better days...

What is this song?

Ken is totally bitter.

Women's match time! Ashley Vox is looking for a bit of revenge!

I like Melina's old gear better.

Match #2 - Ashley Vox vs. Melina

Is it just me, or was that hurricarana a bit sloppy?

Ooh, good pin try by Vox there!

Good fight by Vox, but in the end, Melina's experience wins out.

Winner: Melina

Allysin Kay wants to go! I say let 'em go now!

"DIS NWA TURF, PUNK!"

Da Pope hyping up Outlawz Inc. Good stuff. Looks he wants them to hire him as their manager. I love managers.

Nice Prince shirt, Eddie. Purple Rain is great.

I love that Aron and Question Mark found some dude to wave the mighty ensign of Mongrovia.

Aw come on, Eddie! That flag did nothing to you!

Match #3 - Outlawz Inc. Vs. NWA National Champion Aron Stevens/Question Mark

I have to admit, the Mark/Stevens combo are incredibly entertaining.

You could get a fun little program from this. The goofy wannabe martial artists vs. the angry street brawlers.

Winner: Stevens/Question Mark

Homicide's shoulder may not be quite at 100% after all...

This commercial is a lot better than that Kayfabe Cocktail one...*shudder*

That was creepy.

As Starks said, he went the distance with Nick Aldis. Why is this guy not in the NWA title hunt?

They didn't get Scott Steiner a Strictly Business jacket.

On the other hand, he may have tried to eat it.

Aldis probably gave him money.

"GIMME A F%&^$# MIC!"

"SCOTT, WE STILL HAVE STANDARDS AND PRACTICES HERE!"
"*unintelligible yelling with a Minnesota accent*"

It was Jim Crockett Promotions that became WCW, Scott! At least, I think so.

Oh, this main event is going to be good!

Match #4 - Robert Gibson, Eli Drake, and Tim Storm vs. Strictly Business (Wild Cards and Scott Steiner

WHAT A SLAM BY TIM STORM!

The Totally Not the People's Elbow from Eli Drake!

Huh. Steiner shaved his head.

Crowd's really getting behind Eli Drake!

Camera cut to the far shot in the hot tag.

Morton's team gets the win!

Winners: Gibson, Drake, and Storm

Morton's got a shot at the NWA World Title, and Nick Aldis is beside himself!

Well, that was a fun episode! I can't wait to check out the next one! I wish we did get more footage of Nick Aldis invading Ring of Honor, though. And I liked that many of the major storylines were still touched on in this episode. Only bothered by a couple of minor things, like the camera cutting to a far angle, so we didn't see Robert Gibson's hot tag. It was an enjoyable episode, and I can't wait for next week!

Thanks for reading this blog entry! If you liked it, spread it around! See you next time!
