When Vince McMahon purchased WCW in 2001, TNA hoped to become the first wrestling company to rise up. Alternatives were needed, the WCW buyout had left a huge gap in the market and also, a lot of guys needed work. The Jarretts were hopeful that TNA could fill the void, giving fans a new wrestling product while giving superstars a place to wrestle. It looked like the WWE was not going to be the only place to get some TV time afterall. Thanks to a partnership with the National Wrestling Alliance, TNA was able to host NWA Championship matches on their weekly PPVs. The NWA was also a recognizable entity within the wrestling landscape, so the partnership benefited both TNA and the National Wrestling Landscape. TNA prospered with the NWA name being associated with the company, and the NWA could attempt to restore some of their past glory by exposing the NWA championship to wrestling audiences once again. The very first NWA-TNA show took place on June 18th 2006, and the main event would feature a unique NWA Heavyweight Championship match.
