Harry Smith who is the former two times NWA World Tag Team Champion recently spoke to Battleground podcast where he revealed his goal to be the NWA World Heavyweight champion. He also talked about his relationship with Billy Corgan. He said;
“I would certainly say that’s a fair assumption, very fair assumption. But I gotta get past Mike Knox first [at PowerrrTrip 2]. Once that’s taken care of, I’m certainly intrigued by and have my eyes on the Ten Pounds Of Gold. I think that I’m gonna be getting pretty hungry for it, we’ll put it that way.
“There’s been a really great resurgence with the new NWA that’s come about. And Billy Corgan has been a longtime friend of mine and a friend of my cousin Natalya. So I got to work with Billy when I first left WWE in 2012 with his promotion Resistance up in Chicago. So I was his first world heavyweight champion at the time, defeating Kevin Steen and The Sheik in a three-way.
“So I was doing that until I started going full-time with New Japan Pro-Wrestling and then I had to relinquish the title. But the storyline was that I sent it back in a UPS box because I had turned heel and Raven was my manager at the time. So that relationship with Billy has been for quite some time and it’s been a very good and strong one.
“I really respect Billy, what he’s doing with the NWA. So far he’s been running very well and he really appreciates and respects the old-school style of wrestling and it’s just great to see that he’s brought that about.”
