Billy Corgan & Nick Aldis were on FOX 46’s Good Morning Charlotte in Charlotte, NC three days ago to discuss the NWA, the return of the Crockett Cup and the ROH event Aldis was apart of later that night in Concord. Below are a few quotes as well as the video of the interview with the NWA President and its Heavyweight Champion (transcription credit should go to @DominicDeAngelo at WrestleZone):

Nick Aldis on doing a lot of “firsts” with the 10 Pounds of Gold:

“It was a great honor before and after we spoke here last spring we were able to go and do a lot of things that were firsts and that’s an important thing in our business to be the first person to do something. Like to be the first champion to defend the title in China. I defended the title in four continents last year and then last night I defended the title in Center Stage in Atlanta which has a very rich history with the NWA. It’s the first time that ‘s belt been there since 1993. So any time I get to restore any of that history and that legacy and even be mentioned in the same breath as guys like Flair and Dusty and Harley Race and people like that it’s just a huge honor.”

Billy Corgan on some Crockett Cup details:

“Yeah fantastic. April 27th and in Concord. In fact, we’re talking about maybe even The Champ will come in with a tag team because you know, this is the most prestigious event as far as tag team wrestling. Obviously the history here is incredible. The Crockett Family has worked with us to bring The Crockett Cup back so very very excited.”
