In this 3-part television event, 4 teams will face off against one another for an opportunity at NWA gold. In the event that a team wins, each member and legend involved will receive an NWA title shot. If one of those individuals is a current champion, they will be able to protect their title from any challenger beneath them. It&#8217;s also worth noting that if an individual receives a title opportunity, but is either retired or chooses not to redeem it, they can transfer it to anyone the winner seems fit.<\/p>\n<p>Four NWA titleholders will be paired off with four handpicked individuals; they will be co-captains for four separate teams. From there, they will choose from a host of 20 candidates in an open draft.
