ROH and NWA had a working relationship beginning in 2018, but the two promotions cue ties in July 2019. The two parties appear to be working together again, which began with Marty Scurll making a surprise appearance at the end of NWA Into The Fire, confronting Aldis following his victory over James Storm. Scurll recently signed a new deal with ROH that also gave him lead booking duties.
Here is a look at the updated card for NWA Hard Times.
