He Calls Himself ‘Mr. NWA’…
Now Joe Alonzo Can Call Himself Champion!

For months, Joe Alonzo has called himself “Mr. NWA” — all while claiming to be the uncrowned National Wrestling Alliance World Junior Heavyweight Champion. At NWA Hard Times 2024, all it took was a low-blow and a three-count to prove both!

Throughout his reign, Colby Corino put the World Junior Heavyweight title up-for-grabs multiple times a week. Since winning the championship from Kerry Morton at NWA 75 in August, Corino defended over 30 times nationwide.

When the NWA rolled into Dothan, AL, the title was again on-the-line as Corino faced Alonzo on the Season 18 debut of NWA Powerrr. A rematch from NWA Samhain, where the competitors brawled throughout the Cleveland arana, it was a hotly-contested back-and-forth battle between the champion and the No. 1 contender.

Second-generation star Corino seemed to to have the victory in hand. However, never one to be deterred, the arrogant Alonzo capitalized when Senior Referee Kevin Keenan was distracted.

After delivering a vicious low-blow, Alonzo landed a devastating elevated version of “The Stroke.” Three seconds later, the Chicago native claimed his first NWA championship.

As the new NWA World Junior Heavyweight Champion, Alonzo’s already massive ego is sure to further explode. With gold around his waist, though, who can refute his claim to be “Mr. NWA”?!
