The National Wrestling Alliance announced they will have a new theme song when their season three premiere airs tonight.
Previously opening to Dokken’s “Into The Fire”, NWA Powerrr will now be highlighted by “I’m Broken” by Pantera. The track is from the legendary band’s seventh album, Far Beyond Driven, released in 1994.
The NWA posted the following, including tonight’s new video open that can be seen at the top of this page.
With NWA Powerrr airing tonight at 6:05pm ET on YouTube.com/NWA, the National Wrestling Alliance would like to thank the band Dokken for “Into the Fire”. It was the official theme of NWA Powerrr for Seasons 1 and 2 as well as the theme for the PPV event of the same name.

NWA
If AEW became the mainstream alternative to WWE, then NWA became an alternative not only with viewing methods (6:05 PM EST every Tuesday on YouTube), but especially in the art of presentation. Gone are the massive arenas, entryways and theme music in exchange for a couple hundred seats in a famed Atlanta television studio with a black curtain and the velvety-voiced David Marquez introducing talent all with a classic-cool retro backdrop.
Watching on any device you want isn’t a new idea, but NWA Powerrr presented a very new way to watch wrestling with their format. With only an hour (at most) to spare and very tight confines to work in, the main focus of the program is what it truly should be for all wrestling: the personalities. Familiar faces such as Nick Aldis, James Storm, Aron Stevens and Colt Cabana all compliment new stars like Ricky Starks, The Question Mark & Thunder Rosa. Both get “the rub” from one another and everyone, even “enhancement talent” gets their moment to shine in front of the 100 fans. Even a long time veteran like Tim Storm has found new, reinvigorated life under the infamous three letters.
Promos are paramount in the NWA and with the only exception being NXT, Powerrr does the best job at showcasing women’s wrestling. The NWA did have a slight hiccup with the much buzzed-about Jim Cornette-controversy, but as the company looks ahead to 2020, there are so many positives that can be said for the company and it won’t slow them down. The NWA added Stu Bennett and Sean Mooney to the broadcast team, and put on two strong pay-per-view events with their debut, Into The Fire, and last month’s Hard Times.
The one thing Billy Corgan and Dave Lagana can hang their hats on most? Fans and talent are enjoying the retro vibe and it’s a refreshing blast to watch.
