For real though, Ice Cube's mean muggin' skills are on point and he's got charisma, he probably could have had a nice wrestling career if he'd been interested.

Is there an NWA tape library separate from what the WWE already owns from WCW/JCP, and if so is it worth anything?

At this point WWE likely owns everything that's even close to worth owning, at least from the states

I remember reading an update from the front page. The original deal didn't include the Houston tapes but there's a new deal that would include them.

Dave posted:

Unlike a few weeks ago, the Houston wrestling library is now part of the deal. The actual ownership of the library is still in the hands of Valerie Boesch, Paul’s widow. Bruce Tharpe was used as a broker and went to sell it to WWE, but felt their offer was too low, and then created the NWA on Demand website where they charge a monthly subscription fee and put up new matches on a regular basis as they transfer them to digital from the original tapes. Corgan will take over that position and there are a number of different things they could do with the library, including sell it to WWE, or market it in some form themselves.

there is a hitch in billy corgan's masterplan for NWA world dominance

http://www.pwinsider.com/ViewArticle.php?id=109950

quote:

Multiple sources have told PWInsider.com that the deal is described as "in jeopardy" due to issues regarding the transfer of the existing copyrights and trademarks for the National Wrestling Alliance.

PWInsider.com research indicates that the copyright and trademark on the brand name lapsed last year with his International Wrestling Corp, LLC applying for it again on March 30th of this year. The trademark has not been officially assigned, theoretically making it impossible for them to be transferred to Corgan.

Mike Johnson's version is the condensed one. It is very much like the Corgan-TNA sale. Tharpe kept avoiding Corgan even though the terms were agreed around Wrestlemania time. I dunno if Billy is really naive or he thinks he's a better "con man or gameplayer.

I am sure Tharpe has a masterpiece in his head but his actions have pretty baffling. Some thought the delays and new demands were doing a "Dixie" and his way of getting a role in Corgan's new NWA.

Also Corgan kinda like bailing out TNA financially for TV tapings has been playing middle man with the Houston footage with WWE so to make the NWA sale to him happen. Lots of legwork with no guarantee Billy will get want he wants in the end.

It is like a game of "Magic Cups" where Billy is always the loser.

Corgan will probably end up owing six figures to Tharpe just because.

I mean, maybe someone should take Billy aside and gently explain the term "money mark" to him.
