The first team for this year’s NWA Crockett Cup has been officially announced.
The National Wrestling Alliance took to social media this morning to announce British Invasion (Doug Williams and Nick Aldis) as the first participants in this year’s NWA Crockett Cup.
“No surprises here, but we’re honored to announce as the first *official* entrants into the #CrockettCup:
Former:
IWGP Tag Team Champions
TNA @IMPACTWRESTLING Tag Team Champions
@DougWilliamsUK & @RealNickAldis
THE BRITISH INVASION,” The National Wrestling Alliance tweeted.
Last year, WrestleZone sat down with Doug Williams to discuss a variety of subjects. When asked about the British Invasion tag team, Williams had this to say:
“I think the whole run of British Invasion was good fun but I think the ongoing feud we had with Beer Money was probably always our favorite. We had fantastic matches, went all the way around the loop with them, but me and Nick, we knew what it was, the characters, we just played it up to the max, you know? Overly British, singing the national anthem, getting everybody turned against us because of that and yeah, we just had great fun with it cause we knew we could deliver it as well in the ring so you might as well have fun with the characters while you can, you know?”
