For me if you're promoting a "big announcement" in advance you should only be waiting 24 hours max. Now we've waited so long that the announcement has to be worth the wait and build. When it's revealed the announcement is that the NWA are now selling hats the people are going to be disappointed.

8 days later...still nothing Why are you still looking? It's already be stated, it was a misunderstanding between people that didn't involved Tharpe and there is no announcement. Let's be honest, shit like this happens from time to time. If you want to hassle Tharpe about it, you have a thread for it.

There honestly isn't an announcement? I thought that was speculation! That's golden!
I legitimately laughed in real life.

No matter who was responsible for the "pre announcement"....it happened on THEY'RE social media. HE is directly responsible for what is or isn't posted there. If someone other than him made the pre announcement, it doesn't matter. Its a sign of how unorganized his alliance is. On the other hand, he has been known to run his mouth before he could come anywhere close to delivering. While I believe DKM.....I also know how it goes with my former "partner" and it wouldn't surprise me in the least of it's another premature blabber and someone is falling not the sword for him. If thats the case, no good deed goes unpunished, you aren't scoring any points by protecting him.

I got the story from a person involved.
Shit happens.
SAW announced the US tag titles before they were supposed to and I'm still waiting for the Return to Glory or whatever they were calling the tournament that Pearce won the heavyweight title to be released on DVD, and UWN announce their world title tournament a couple of summers ago that didn't come about. There are countless other example I could give, but that's not the point.
This is really something that needs to be let go.

Agreed. The incident is over. The pattern will continue. Thats what I'll focus on.

Nobody is hung up about it. I just think it's absolutely hilarious that the big announcement is that there is no announcement.

I think the big announcement was suppose to be the JR HOF thing. Bad communication

The JR Hall Of Fame thing isn't a big announcement though. Nobody cares about the NWA Hall Of Fame.

JR cares and re-tweeted it.

I tend to agree with Shawn. Jim Ross is very much respected in the Wrestling Community. He's no Gordon Solie, He's no Dick Lane, but he's every bit the celebrity he is in Wrestling. He's called most of the biggest matches in the last 30 years. He's a legend. Polejump, your perspective is accurate. You don't care about the HOF. You have little to no reason too. But JR cares enough to be at the ceremony, he lends his credibility to the HOF. The NWA can certainly benefit from the rub.

JR cares because to some people out there who don't know better they're going to assume it's a big deal.
Jay, you say JR is going to appear at the ceremony. Does the NWA even do a Hall Of Fame ceremony? The last few years hasn't it just been an announcement online?
Also, if there is indeed a ceremony I bet you JR will be getting paid to be there.

Its at the CAC, he's in attendance regardless.

Ah so it's not specifically an NWA event?
