Ranking The 10 Biggest Wrestling Matches Coming In September
4. Cody Rhodes Vs. Nick Aldis (All In)
It's been a long and winding road for the NWA World Title. From being the most coveted prize in wrestling to being moved out of WCW, to Shane Douglas throwing it on the ground, to TNA, to total obscurity, the belt as certainly seen better days.
However, when Billy Corgan bought the NWA, he made it his mission to restore honor and glory to the promotion and its main title. That work pays off at All In, when Nick Aldis, the World's Heavyweight Champion, defends his title against the Grandson of a Plummer: Cody Rhodes.
Sure, there are matches that look better on paper or have more tantalizing names, but this match is historic. It's the most important show the NWA World Title has been on in years, and all the build and attention toward this match has made the belt and its holder relevant. In addition, Cody will be fighting for history too. If he were to win at All In, he and his late father would be the first father-son tandem to hold the NWA title. And just imagine how much the belt's profile were to grow if Cody took it into ROH, PWG, or New Japan?
Starting with All In, things will definitely be looking up for the 10 Pounds of Gold.
