"Junior Heavyweight" is an NWA title. Eventually they shit-canned the "junior" part. No big deal though, it just means the holder isn't the official NWA heavyweight champ but rather a southern territory champ with potential. Like Lawler, for example. If they offered it to me, I'd take it. Heh heh. :)
