NWA Special Supercards are professional wrestling supercard events promoted by the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). Unlike the NWA's live pay-per-view (PPV) events, these events are primarily taped for future programming.
Beginning in 2019, the NWA would promote Pop-Up Events in-conjunction with various independent professional wrestling promotions. NWA President William Patrick Corgan explained the concept as "being able to work, show up anywhere in the world that appreciates moments", and partnering with local promotions. The inaugural event, New Years Clash, was held on January 5, 2019, and co-produced with Crimson's Tried-N-True Pro Wrestling in Clarksville, Tennessee. Matches from the event would later air as part of the NWA's web series, Ten Pounds of Gold.[1]
Since 2022, the NWA has also hosted PowerrrTrip events. These events serve as tapings for future episodes of NWA Powerrr, and are usually held after the NWA's live PPV events.[2]
With Powerrr's move to The CW network's app in 2024, future NWA events going forward are known as Signature Live Events, with matches exclusively taped for future Powerrr episodes.
