Trevor Murdoch Comments On Nick Aldis’ NWA Departure: There’s Two Sides To Every Story

Trevor Murdoch talks about Nick Aldis leaving the National Wrestling Alliance.

For several years, Nick Aldis was the face of the NWA revival. recently, Nick announced that he would be leaving the NWA and entering free agency in January 2023. This decision for Nick came after months of tension with Billy Corgan, the president of the National Wrestling Alliance. 

In a new interview with MuscleManMalcolm, Trevor Murdoch, the current NWA World Heavyweight Champion and the man who defeated Nick for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship at NWA 73, spoke about his relationship with Nick and Nick’s decision to leave. Trevor Murdoch says that while there are two sides to every story, he has always gotten along with Aldis and believes Aldis has always been a professional.

“Nick was always a professional with me in the locker room. Here’s the thing, when you’re a passionate individual, when you’re an individual that has the drive and desire to want to be the best you want and expect everybody else around you to be the best, you know what I mean? That’s how top guys elevate other people. Nick is an opinionated individual. There’s nothing wrong with that, though. Nick always told me what he wants up front and he was very upfront with me. Nick’s always been respectful of me, as well,” Trevor said. “People have their opinions, and they can sit from the outside and judge until they’re actually in there and know exactly what’s going on, really, they should just keep their mouth shut. Also, too, it’s easy for people to go out and say one side of the story. It’s naive for people to believe one side of a story. It’s not as juicy. If you don’t use common sense. It’s very juicy, to just take somebody’s word for it, and run with that hate. But common sense, hopefully, will come into play with most people, and they’ll realize there’s two sides to every story.”

For now, Trevor Murdoch must stay focused on his championship defense at NWA Hard Times 3 where he will face Tyrus and Matt Cardona in New Orleans. Fans can check out the full card for that event, which will be held on November 12, at this link.
