What tapes? Lol

The NWA Houston ones are the big ones if Corgan even got the rights to them. WWE tried to get them before & the guy who owned the NWA got it over them & started a streaming service based mostly around having those tapes.

:dahell: you talking bout?
I havent watched more than an hour of wrestling in a decade and even I know that's TNA...

NWA the original GOAT

For some reason I figured WWE bought the right's to the NWA when they acquired WCW. NWA actually has a chance brehs, branding is everything to a product.

Which is why TNA (who the fucc would name it that?) was doomed from the very inception.

Tharpe might own them himself outside of the NWA, I don't really know for sure to be honest :manny:

Hell Corgan might not have bought that stuff but if he did, he has something WWE wanted before & didn't get so he has options. It would be weird if he bought the rights to the all the stuff like names & trademarks but left something like the streaming service out there without owning it to.

What tape library do they even own? isn't JCP already owned by WWE? And wcw and Georgia Championship clearly is. What video does nwa even have rights to?

Actually got no idea, just hearing mentions of a tape library... I assumed they had something of value on deck :skip:

Could be interesting with their history (which is a shell) and his visionary but who's there is the question across the whole different promotions still with it

I'm pretty sure thrope is licenseing the Houston tapes from Bosch family because on the Houston wrestling epsiode he basically alluded to thrope using the family while they could get a much bigger payday from WWE for selling the tapes outright.
