Top Contender Crowned For NWA National Title At NWA 73

Chris Adonis has his next challenger.

Judais won the 13-man battle royale at NWA 73 to earn a future shot at the NWA National Championship. The battle royale came down to JTG and Judais with the finish seeing Judais hitting a spring board punch to eliminate JTG, who was standing on the middle rope on the outside portion of the ring.

The battle royale came down to Judais, JTG, Mims, and Luke Hawx. Judais eliminated Mims before taking out Hawx as well. Judais scored the most eliminations in the match.

El Rudo, Jamie Stanley, Marshe Rockett, Slice Boogie, Jeremiah Plunkett, Captain Yuma, Rush Freeman, Hearthrob Jayden, and Sal Rinauro also competed in the bout.

Twelve men were initially announced for the battle royale, but James Mitchell introduced Judais (Mikael Judas in NWA Wildside, Murphy in TNA/IMPACT) as the thirteenth man.

The NWA National Championship is currently held by Chris Adonis. Adonis successfully retained the championship against James Storm earlier in the night at NWA 73.

It is unknown when Judais will get his title match.
