* This happens to many promotions who join the Wrestling/{{N|ationalWrestlingAlliance}}WA (or similar groups) (SWA to NWA SWA National Wrestling Alliance Scottish Wrestling Alliance?) but some promotions that were NWA members from the start still don't avoid it. Championship Wrestling From Hollywood had the excuse of GrandFatherClause, being based on CWF Florida, which was one of those after the fact cases. Most, such as NWA Pro Wrestling, NWA Wrestling/{{WCW}} or NWA Wrestling/{{ECW}}, have none.
