NWA Powerrr : 3 ups and 3 downs

4. Down - No real challengers for Nick Aldis

Marty Scurll is the only legitimate challenger to Nick Aldis

Another issue with the NWA is that while Nick Aldis is a great Champion, there is hardly anyone on the roster who seems to be a genuine challenger for the Brit. The likes of James Storm, Eli Drake and Colt Cabana have all been positioned as a level below Aldis, where as Tim Storm is in the position of 'close.. but no cigar' challenger while feuding with Aldis.

One exception to this is the person who showed up at 'In to the fire' to close out the show - Marty Scurll. NWA has teased Scurll vs Aldis since then and while the Villain remains a high profile draw and a worthy opponent to take Aldis' title, all rumours point towards a short run for Scurll in NWA.

A free agent as of now, it seems inevitable that Scurll would make a jump to AEW once he honours his independent dates and NWA would surely once again fall back on Aldis. NWA needs to develop younger talent and build them up to have an alternative.
