It will be held on August 31, 2024, at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It will be the 14th event under the NWA Anniversary Show chronology.

Background

[edit]
The event will be held at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The NWA Anniversary Show is a professional wrestling event held by the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). The first event was held in 1998 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the 1948 founding of the NWA. The event then continued to be held annually until 2005. It has since been held periodically, with shows held in 2008, 2018, 2021, 2022, and 2023.[1]

On April 2, 2024, it was announced that the NWA 76th Anniversary Show would take place on August 31, 2024, at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[2][3] This would be the first NWA's event in Philadelphia under Billy Corgan’s ownership, as well as NWA's first flagship event in Philadelphia since the third annual Eddie Gilbert Memorial Brawl, held in February 1998.[2]

Storylines

[edit]

The event featured professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that built tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. Storylines are produced during the nineteenth season of the NWA's weekly series, Powerrr.[4]

On the April 23 Hard Times edition of NWA Powerr, Mike Knox and Trevor Murdoch defeated The Southern Six (Alex Taylor and Kerry Morton) in a tag team steel cage match.[5] Both teams would later compete in the Crockett Cup, where the Southern Six defeated Knox and Murdoch – the previous winners – in the semifinals, before defeating The Immortals (Kratos and Odinson) to win the tournament.[6][7] On July 25, the NWA announced that The Southern Six would face Knox and Murdoch in a grudge match at NWA 76.[8]

On July 29, the NWA announced the return of the Burke Invitational Gauntlet, a multi-woman gauntlet match where the winner would receive a future NWA World Women's Championship match.[9]

Ten participants would be announced for the match, including:

On the July 30 episode of NWA Powerrr, Daisy Kill and Talos won the vacant NWA United States Tag Team Championship after defeating The Fixers (Jay Bradley and Wrecking Ball Legursky).[15] Two days later, the NWA announced that Kill and Talos would defend the titles in a four-way tag team match against The Fixers, The Country Gentlemen (AJ Cazana and KC Cazana), and The Slimeballz (Sage Chantz and Tommy Rant).[16]

On the April 16 Hard Times edition of NWA Powerrr, The Immortals (Kratos and Odinson) challenged Blunt Force Trauma (BFT) (Carnage and Damage) for the NWA World Tag Team Championship. However, before they could, BFT's manager Aron Stevens demanded The Immortals relinquish the NWA United States Tag Team Championship. They would do so at the event, but unfortunately, interference by Stevens led to BFT retaining the titles.[17] On August 8, the NWA announced that The Immortals would have a rematch with BFT in a non-title Liberty Bell Brawl.[18]
