Jeff Jarrett to referee Cardona vs. Aldis NWA title match at Crockett Cup

The NWA has revealed some changes to the Crockett Cup lineup.

Jeff Jarrett has been announced as the special guest referee for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship match between Matt Cardona and Nick Aldis at the Crockett Cup. A video uploaded by the NWA states that Cardona threatened to no-show the event unless a fair and unbiased referee was assigned to his title defense.

Cardona also insisted that his wife, Chelsea Green, be inserted into the NWA World Women’s Championship picture. Kamille will now defend the title against both Green and Kylie Rae in a triple threat match at the Crockett Cup.

It was also revealed that Doug Williams will team with Harry Smith in the Crockett Cup. Williams and Aldis had recently re-formed their British Invasion team, but with Aldis challenging Cardona at the event, Williams needed a new partner. 

Smith is returning to the ring for the first time since being released by WWE last November. He and Williams will face The Ill Begotten in the first round of the Crockett Cup tag team tournament.

The Crockett Cup takes place Saturday, March 19 and Sunday, March 20 from the Nashville Fairgrounds. It will air live on Fite TV. Cardona vs. Aldis and Kamille vs. Rae vs. Green will both take place on night two.
