    God dammit. I remember a time when the NWA title was equal to, or greater than the WWE/WWF title, depending on who you were talking to.

    Now, your local indy may have a more important title than the NWA title.

    It’s like you remember being a kid, and your uncle was 20, and was hard working, and held an important job. He was SO cool! And now, you’re in your 40s, and your uncle works at a car wash, and sells crack in the ally, and couch surfs because he’s technically homeless, and all anyone can do is shake their heads in disappointment like tsk tsk tsk tsk. But he still shows up at thanksgiving for the free food, and spouts off racist shit while drunk, and everybody just feels uneasy around him.

    That’s the NWA right now.
