Everything You Need To Know About The NWA's 70th Anniversary Pay-Per-View
2. The Challenger: Nick Aldis
Nick Aldis has been a standout star wherever he’s ventured in the world of wrestling. He’s been a former tag team champion in Japan, the Global Force Wrestling Champion, a TNA World Champion, and recently held the NWA's top prize. At just thirty-one years old, his list of accomplishments is on par with stars a decade older, and impressively, it still feels as if he has a wealth of untapped potential.
In November 2017, Aldis defeated Tim Storm to capture his first NWA Worlds title and immediately became the face of Billy Corgan’s revived NWA. Throughout his nearly year-long reign, Aldis defended the prestigious championship across the world in promotions like Combat Zone Wrestling, Ring of Honor, at the historic ALL IN event in front of ten-thousand fans, and even in China.
Unfortunately for “The Dealer”, it was at ALL IN that things went bust when he was defeated by Cody -- who fulfilled his own destiny as the second Rhodes to become NWA Champion. Now, Aldis hopes to regain what was once his and build his own legacy as the modern day face of the NWA and as its journeyman champion.
