This month we will look at
the 2 most important titles and their histories in the territory, the
United States Title and the NWA World Tag Titles.
The United States Championship
This was the major singles title of the region as the Mid-Atlantic
title was considered the springboard to it. A lot of great wrestlers
held this title and there were a hell of a lot of great matches for this
belt. So here are the men that held the JCP version of the U.S. title:
1.Harley Race (?/75 - Tallahassee, Florida ) - Defeats Johnny Weaver
in tournament final
2.Johnny Valentine {John Wisniski Sr.} (07/03/75- Greensboro, North
Carolina, United States) - Johnny Valentine's career was ended in a
plane crash, causing the NWA United States Title to become vacant on
10/04/75.
3.Terry Funk (11/09/75-Greensboro, North Carolina, United States) -
Terry Funk defeated Paul Jones in the final of a sixteen-man tournament
to crown a new champion.
4.Paul Jones (11/24/75)
5.Blackjack Mulligan {Robert Windham} (03/13/76)
6.Paul Jones (2) (10/16/76-Greensboro, North Carolina, United States)
7.Blackjack Mulligan (2) (01/77)
8. Bobo Brazil {Houston Harris} (?/77-Norfolk, Virginia, USA )
9.Ric Flair {Richard Morgan Fliehr} (07/29/77- Richmond, Virginia,
United States)
10.Rick Steamboat {Richard Blood} (11/11/77-Richmond, Virginia, United
States)
11.Blackjack Mulligan (3) (02/78-Greensboro, NC, USA)
12.Tim Woods/Mr. Wrestling (03/78-Greensboro, NC, USA)
13.Ric Flair (2) (04/09/78-Charlotte, NC, USA)
14.Rick Steamboat (2) (12/18/78-Toronto, Ontario, CANADA)
15.Ric Flair (3) (04/01/79-Greensboro, NC, USA) - Ric Flair vacated the
title on 8/12/79 after winning the NWA World Tag Team Title.
16.Jimmy Snuka (09/01/79-Charlotte, North Carolina, United States) -
