The National Wrestling Alliance has reportedly landed two television deals.
On October 12, during an appearance on Busted Open Radio, NWA President Billy Corgan stated that the company signed two television deals. He noted that he had been working on it for over a year, and the announcement will be coming soon.
Haus of Wrestling reports that Corgan was referring to The CW when he referenced NWA landing a deal with a “top 20 network.” The report notes that the logistics are still being worked out, but two different NWA products will air on The CW: both NWA Powerrr and “a reality TV show about the day-to-day, behind-the-scenes business of the NWA.”
Haus of Wrestling wrote that the new reality show has already started filming. Sources noted that it should be done soon.

The report also notes that NWA Powerrr is expected to debut before the reality show. Powerrr recently received some production upgrades. The report notes that these changes were made in anticipation of the move to TV.
Additionally, Haus of Wrestling noted that it was not made clear whether Powerrr will be one or two hours long. However, the show will be pre-taped.
Finally, Haus of Wrestling wrote that WOW – Women of Wrestling’s success on The CW gives those in NWA optimism that they will draw a solid audience.
NWA Powerrrr currently airs on YouTube. In the past, it aired as part of a subscription through FITE.
