Actually...this is a good idea. I'm guessing the idea is to try to get JR to come to the alliance show in Fort Worth. If you can get him there to accept an award and market it....it's a chance to draw more people....especially on Wrestle Mania week.

If he is he may not be allowed to accept the HoF award during Wrestlemania.

The alliance is weak...we all know that. Everything they do is about getting a rub from whoever they are attempting to associate with.
What do you do when you can't get yourself over? Get someone important to help get you over.

This is actually one of those actions that I said if Tharpe could pull off I'd give him credit, which I'm doing here. Why? For the reasons that Chris mentioned. Putting Ross in the HOF will get some internet buzz, something that they haven't been able to get as an organization since he took over. Ross will help put the NWA and Tharpe over, and you bet that Bruce will be taking LOTS of pics (hopefully not wearing those hideous sequined jackets) and attempt to put himself over.

Ross seems to be on board. Don't really see the backlash to this.

Yeah, I think we can all agree this was well played by the NWA. (Sorry Chris, I'm not calling them the Alliance. I'm the Alliance.)

It's just that I won't utter his name....it makes me want to vomit....and he is the alliance as well....so thats another name I avoid using. Under the current circumstances I just refuse to call THIS incarnation of the alliance by that historical and significant name. It's not worthy in any way. Maybe I need a new name for it, because you are indeed THE alliance Jay.

The National Wrestling Alliance is pleased to announce its second inductee for the NWA 2016 Hall of Fame Awards - is none other than legendary wrestling commentator JIM ROSS! The NWA background of this wrestling icon dates back to his start with Bill Watts and the Mid South Wrestling organization - as well as the many NWA matches he announced in his pre-WCW days. It will be our honor to induct this respected gentleman into the NWA Hall of Fame this year at the Cauliflower Alley Club Reunion in Las Vegas!

Jim isn't going to their event Wrestle Mania week. They are cornering him at CAC. He would look like an ass to decline. More fodder for discussion at CAC...just like last year....you should have heard the things people were saying...
