NPA

The National Prediction Alliance (NPA) was a corporation based in the United Kingdom that previously owned LLR and many other territories, and in 2017 and 2018, attempted to take control of LLR.

The company has been dissolved as of February, 2018.

## History

### Background

Years ago, there were many prediction promotions scattered throughout the United States. The parent company of all of these promotions was the NPA, which operated the business side of each promotion, leaving them to run the individual shows. One of these companies was Loser Leaves Reddit (LLR).

Over the years, LLR expanded and took over many of the territories, which were failing. Eventually, when LLR was a national phenomenon, it cut ties with the NPA, leaving the company with only failing promotions and putting them out of business in the United States. However, LLR was still technically under contract with the NPA.

### Out from the shadows

When LLR truly became popular, the NPA sought out to take back control of the promotion. To do this, they planted their own agents within LLR, as well as recruiting new members. Meanwhile, Immathrodis and TheCivilizedGamer began investigating what happened to the old company. In return, however, the NPA started pulling strings and getting certain matches scheduled, forcing the respective general managers to agree to them.

After No Mercy (2017), SimaShi revealed that he was a member of the NPA. SimaShi was recruited after he failed to be hired from LLR originally in late 2016. The company guaranteed him a contract in exchange for his loyalty. He claimed that the NPA got him in the match to determine the new Raw General Manager at Summerslam (2017), as well as a United States Championship qualifying match.

At Hell in a Cell (2017), Immathrodis and TheCivilizedGamer revealed that the returning RyRyLloyd was the NPA's final world champion, and was still working for the company.

Immathrodis and TheCivilizedGamer recruited TheUltimateMark to fight against the NPA, and he would be scheduled to go against SimaShi at TLC (2017) as a stand in for his previous opponent, The gift of g2j, who had been attacked. TheUltimateMark defeated SimaShi, and HironationRockz came out to celebrate with his partner. Just then, however, Mark turned on Hiro and attacked him, with Sima joining soon after. Mark would then reveal that he had also joined the NPA and that he was G2J's attacker. He claimed that his motive was the lack of respect from everyone in LLR as well as the fans.

On an episode of Raw, a returning King-of-Zing revealed that she, too, was a part of the NPA. She ran the final territory of the company, the UK territory, which was closed down by LLR. Zing would also be entering the match at Survivor Series (2017) to determine the next Smackdown General Manager, though this effort would end up being unsuccessful.

At Takeover: WarGames (2017), Team NPA would defeat Team LLR in a war games match.

### Downfall

After his United States Championship match at Clash of Champions (2017), TheUltimateMark turned on the NPA and stated his intention to cash in his Option J clause.

Very soon after that, SimaShi would snap and savagely attack King-of-Zing over a leadership dispute, ejecting her from the NPA.  ROH2002Fan also stopped their involvement with the NPA over time, leaving SimaShi alone in his effort to take over the company, with the executives applying more and more pressure on him.

SimaShi joined All In, as they had similar goals at the time.  A couple weeks later, he went to the NPA headquarters in the UK. While he was there, he found out that the NPA, and specifically it's CEO, Willy Morgan, was taking a lot more out of his paycheck from merchandise sales than they should have. Willy was very disrespectful to Sima, and as a result, Sima reported his crimes to the police and he was arrested. The NPA's investors were appalled at this, and the organization was quickly dissolved.
