Cody Rhodes’ first NWA World Title defense has been announced. Cody won the strap from Nick Aldis at All In earlier this month in Chicago. It has already been announced that Aldis will receive his rematch after defeating Doug Williams at Wrestling MediaCon.
Aldis had a great run as NWA Champion. He held the title for 266 days and even defended the title 20 times over 60 days at one point. Aldis’ and Rhodes’ initial match at All In was tremendous, and a rematch should be even better.
Before that, however, Cody is set to defend the NWA Title against Willie Mack – better known for his work with Lucha Underground and Pro Wrestling Guerilla – at the September 29th Ring Of Honor event. NWA made the official announcement on Twitter.:
“BREAKING! @CodyRhodes announces his first NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship Match on 9/29 at @ringofhonor vs… Willie Mack”
