The National Wrestling Alliance will host a 70th anniversary show in October that promises to "honor the fighting spirit and big-bout feel worthy of the NWA name."

Since Billy Corgan took over, the NWA has largely been relegated to heavyweight championship rather than a promotion that runs traditional shows ... with the champion being featured on their YouTube series called “Ten Pounds of Gold."

That changes on October 21 at the Nashville Fairgrounds, however, with an event that will be produced in association with Jeff Jarrett's Global Force Entertainment and stream on FITE TV. The title will be defended by either current champ Nick Aldis -- or his "All In" challenger Cody Rhodes.

“It’s such an honor to be leading this historic brand into its next chapter,” NWA owner Billy Corgan said in a news release. “The enduring legacy of the National Wrestling Alliance -- the men who forged it and the champions who defended it -- illuminate our path in 2018. This event celebrates our first full year shepherding this brand while honoring the everlasting milestones, legends and champions of the NWA.”

The NWA folks also announced the return of the NWA National title for the Nashville event.

More matches and talent will be announced in coming weeks.
