National Wrestling Alliance Suspends Live Events In April, Including Crockett Cup And Powerrr Tapings
The National Wrestling Alliance issued the following statement, announcing they’ve suspended their April events due to the ongoing coronavirus situation. Events affected include the NWA Crockett Cup scheduled for April 19 in Atlanta, as well their television tapings the following two nights.
STATEMENT FROM NATIONAL WRESTLING ALLIANCE
The National Wrestling Alliance, given the uncertain course of this world health crisis, is suspending normal operations until June as far as any live performances. This includes the upcoming Atlanta, GA events; Crockett Cup PPV on April 19th at the Gateway Center Arena and our NWA Powerrr tapings at GPB Studios on April 20th and 21st. At this time, the Super Powerrr episode scheduled to air on Tuesday March 17th, which promoted these events, will not air in its current form in order to not create confusion in the marketplace. However, we will continue to produce content in the interim, and thank fans in advance for their continued support.
The health and safety of our wrestlers, in-house and NWA staff, and fans are of the utmost importance during the global pandemic of COVID-19. We look forward to seeing you all soon.
For those who have purchased tickets to The Crockett Cup at the Gateway Center, you’ll be receiving a refund from the point of purchase. For the NWA Powerrr at GPB on April 20th and 21st, if you’d like to keep your tickets for a future GPB event please email [email protected] If you do not contact Maureen within 5 days, you’ll be issued a refund on your NWA Powerrr tickets.
Also anyone who has pre-ordered Crockett Cup on Fite.tv will be receiving a refund as well ASAP.
Please stay safe!

The company did not announce any dates for the postponed events. NWA Director Of Operations Maureen Tracy also responded to a fan’s question about issuing refunds versus holding tickets for a rescheduled date, noting that since tickets were through the venue and there’s no rescheduled date, refunds were the only option at this time.
