If the NWA currently consists of about 8 wrestlers, who are they going to wrestle in the studio shows?
Obviously it can't be a main event rotation of Aldis, Storm and Drake every week.
Will we see the return of squash/jobber matches?
Will the NWA partner with a particular federation for talent?

I am sure a lot of TNT and local wrestlers will be featured.

Right they have other "signed" people we are not aware of and yes we will likely see the return of "squash" matches (They have never gone away) and there is a lot of indie talent who they don't need to sign but they can work with.
No partnerships that I know of and that's a good thing.

So the most updated roster looks like this: Nick Aldis, James Storm, Eli Drake, Ricky Starks, Allyson, Colt Cabana, and you'd have to assume that the tag team champions Royce Isaacs and Thomas Latimer.
David Lagana has stressed on multiple Twitter posts that they have a greater roster that hasn't been revealed yet. You'd have to think that the War Kings (Jax Dane and Crimson) are on board. You'd have to think Jay Bradley will be a player. I'd also assume Jocephus will play a role. With that being said... they are going to need more pieces. I fly in on Sunday Night. I'll let you know if I see anybody at the airport.

Cornette is a superb commentator and a brilliant mind for wrestling. He can link the current NWA back to the NWA of old. Cornette can reference how the team he managed once held the belts now around the waists the NWA Tag team champions and he was there at some of the things the NWA is bringing back - the Crockett Cup, Georgia studio wrestling. Ok, so he doesn't like Kenny Omega wrestling a blow-up sex dolls, Joey Ryan throwing women with his penis, or the Young Bucks superkicking an eight year old, but not everyone's perfect...

Corny has a way to be I'll just say controversial but is still one of the best commentators.

Cornette as part of this event. Not a fan of him nowadays but I guess he brings something to the table for the NWA.

Love Cornette. Unique and most informative insight in wrestling. The human encyclopedia and curator of historical knowledge and facts of pro wrestling. Adds alot of trivial nuggets to his commentary.
