National Wrestling Alliance Introduces NWA Texas as Sixth Official Territory
The National Wrestling Alliance announced the formation of sixth officially-recognized territory NWA Texas.
The expansion continues!
Today the National Wrestling Alliance announces the formation of NWA Texas. A governing body uniting wrestling promotions across The Lone Star State under the NWA banner, NWA Texas becomes the sixth recognized NWA territory.
On Nov. 16, NWA Chief Operating Officer Joe Galli formally introduced Dogg Pound Championship Wrestling as the first regional promotion to officially join NWA Texas. San Antonio-based DPCW is owned and operated by legendary husband-and-wife duo Rodney Mack and Jazz. Formed in Sept. 2021, it has quickly become a staple in Texas wrestling.
“It’s an honor to now officially be part of the National Wrestling Alliance,” says Jazz, the longest-reigning NWA Women’s World champion in history.
“Our talent roster is second-to-none in Texas or across the country,” she continues, “And this is a great opportunity to showcase Dogg Pound Championship Wrestling and our very talented roster on a national stage,”
San Antonio’s Dogg Pound Championship Wrestling is the first promotion to join NWA Texas.
Though DPCW is the first promotion to come under NWA Texas governance, more are expected in upcoming months. According to NWA National Promoter Bryan Idol, once member organizations are finalized, titles specific to the territory as a whole will be introduced.
“Texas is such a huge state, with so many top-tier promotions in it, each filled with awesome athletes and champions,” he states.
“NWA Texas will allow the National Wrestling Alliance to bring these companies together,” he shares, “And their respective talents will eventually compete for officially-sanctioned NWA Texas titles.”

The NWA Texas launch comes exactly two weeks after NWA-World League Wrestling was announced. A quarter-century after being founded by NWA legend Harley Race, the Missouri-based promotion became the fifth official National Wrestling Alliance territory on Nov. 2.
“Piece-by-piece, region-by-region, we are rebuilding the legendary territory system that defined the NWA for generations,” Idol shares.
“Now whether it’s in Chicago, Cleveland, Tennessee, Missouri or Texas, fans can experience the hard-hitting pro wrestling action of the NWA live,” Idol concludes. “It’s an exciting time for the National Wrestling Alliance and its fans!”
