The estate of the Jim Crockett family have issued a statement noting that the NWA World Wide Wrestling independent promotion, which runs live events in several areas in southeastern North Carolina and has been promoting a “Crockett Memorial Cup”, which ended last weekend, has been doing so without their authorization.

“The Facebook page NWA: World Wide Wrestling is in no way affiliated with the Crockett family. They are using the name Crockett Memorial Cup without authorization from our late grandfather’s estate. This is why we started this page; for our fans to get the real scoop on all the fake pages and events that claim to be us.”
