8 teams or 16 teams? I think 8 teams for 7 matches plus the NWA Worlds Championship, women's championship and National Championship for a 10 match card would be a solid 3 hr show. The previous Crockett Cup is not a single supercard. Rather, it's a periodic tournament. And to add on to that point the reason being it allows wiggle room in case of injury

There were only 3 major Jim Crockett Sr. Memorial Cup Tag Team Tournaments: 1986, 1987, and 1988. WCW was sold at the end of 88 and the Tournament was done away with. There are been a few non-official Crockett Cups and a couple of recent Crockett Cups but this is the first one that has the potential of being a "big deal" on the "indie" scene.
In the past there have been 24 teams with the top 8 seeds getting a bye in to the second round and seeds 9 through 16 (first year) facing non-seeded teams in the first round. Many (or most) non-seeded teams were simply put together for the tournament and made out of enhancement talent. Examples include: The Italian Stallion and Koko Ware (86), Denny Brown and Chris Champion (87), and Rocky King and Nelson Royal (88)
It also took place over two cards with a couple of matches headlining each card and a World title match between the semifinals and the finals.

So, this will means NWA will held more than 1 ahows for Crockett Cup,? Or maybe they will collaborated with anotger promotions.

Doesn't mean anything at the moment, only what was done originally. It also suggest getting enough top teams back then was difficult.

Probably just have less teams, if they did 8 teams that would be 7 matches for the whole tournament, then you could throw in a couple matches between rounds and a World's Heavyweight Title defense and that makes for a tighter show for the at home audience.

I doubt it will happen but I to this day think Damien Wayne & Chase Stevens would make a great team for the NWA

The former SAW, aka NWA New South, aka presently known as AWA did it twice when Storm was champion.

The prospect of the Crockets doing anything with the NWA at the very least is interesting.
I'm looking forward to it.

The Naturals battles with AMW for the tag belts was a major building block on early TNA and DW can carry a team on his own, look at the success of LOK.

Reclaiming the Glory tourney was held over ....i know this is wrong but 12 events? Including the finals in Puerto Rico correct me if I am wrong Every match was held on a different card I believe. That was true then but part of the reason Reclaiming the Glory took 3 months was they had to piggyback on Independent shows without television or pay per view, I myself wasn't even aware of the tournament till just before the final four. Then all that work went right down the toilet when Dragon was injured a week before he was supposed to win. Don't get me wrong Pierce was a great champ but he wasn't the star that Brian Danielson was. So that's why you don't stretch an event across multiple shows because something always goes wrong. That and the the casual wrestling fan doesn't have patience to watch that much wrestling. They can have a qualifying round through other shows but the event itself needs to be one night.
