When Crocket left Central states did the titles they brought stay with who ever promoted it after or did the go with Crocket. I'm talking about the Central States heavyweight and tag titles.

The titles weren't brought in by Crockett, only the talent. Control of the titles returned to Bob Geigel when he took over after Crockett ended his association with them.

Think I may have miss wrote what I was trying to explain. I was talking about the actual belts, not the name of the titles which I do know were not brought in by Crocket.

Yeah, I got what you were asking. Crockett didn't bring in or take out any titles or belts related to the region, he basically just handled the talent and who held the belts. The belts and control of the titles passed to Geigel when Crockett withdrew, and later Geigel dropped out of the remnants of the NWA altogether when his promotion became the WWA.

The titles reverted to Geigel, but I think JCP took the new physical belts it brought in with it upon departing. I saw a post JCP clip and the Central States Title belt looked different from the JCP version.

Who booked the Central States for Crockett? Was it Dusty or was he to busy booking the Carolinas and gave the book there to someone else?

I could be wrong but I thought Crockett sent Dundee to Central States, not only to be a headliner, but also to book the territory.

Bill Dundee and Buddy Landell went to JCP at the end of July in 1986 as a duo. Bill was Buddy's "player/coach", meaning both his tag team partner and manager. The two were quickly transitioned from the low midcard tin JCP to Central States where Buddy, as lead heel, started a feud with top babyface Sam Houston. Buddy got fired, so Bill became the top singles heel out of Kansas City with Sam as his main rival. Dundee eventually got the Central States Title after Sam abruptly quit and moved to the UWF. Bill seemed to have a hand in the booking although it's hard to remember many of the angles. After JCP ended its relationship with Central States, Bill dropped the title and headed to Florida, JCP's new farm club so to speak.

When Geigel returned to promoting and started the WWA who did he use for talent? Who were his top stars? What angles did he run?

When Geigel bought KC back, honestly it was alot of the homesteaders - Bob Brown, Rufus R. Jones and & Mike George, who was the first WWA Champion.
