Larry was the NWA National Heavyweight Champion and would only wrestle Tommy Rich with a ten minute time limit. This makes Larry's typical stalling more meaningful here. A Dusty Rhodes promo airs right before the match. From 1983 Georgia TV https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mE_zcH7cu98

MLW TO AIR FIRST LIVE SPECIAL ON BEIN SPORTS

MLW will be presenting its first-ever live television special in December.
It was announced today that "MLW Fusion Live" will air on beIN Sports at 8 p.m. Eastern time on Friday, December 14. The show is taking place at the Scottish Rite Temple in Miami, Florida as part of MLW's night of tapings. The venue is also hosting MLW tapings on December 13.
For the live Fusion episode, MLW is promoting a double main event of Rush vs. Rich Swann and a five-way ladder match with Middleweight Champion MJF (Maxwell Jacob Friedman) defending against Andrew Everett, Dezmond Xavier, Kotto Brazil, and Jason Cade. If MJF isn't cleared to compete in time due to his fractured elbow, the title will be vacated and it will be a four-way match to decide the new champion.
Dragon Lee vs. DJZ and appearances by Low Ki, “Filthy” Tom Lawlor, Salina de la Renta, the Hart Foundation (Teddy Hart, Davey Boy Smith Jr. & Brian Pillman Jr.), Tommy Dreamer, and more are also advertised for the special.
“There is an energy and sense of expectation to live TV, and with only one or two other companies on live, it puts us in rarified air,” MLW's Court Bauer told Sports Illustrated. “We have now exceeded every milestone we had mapped out in our business plan within our first 13 months of operation. Once again, we now find ourselves in unchartered territory, but it’s very exciting.”
Bauer also noted that there are more live specials in place for 2019.

Update On Silas Young's ROH Future

Young's contract was set to expire at the end of the year and he seemed open to signing with WWE.The two-time TV champion Silas Young is expected to sign a new three-year deal. He was at the Nov. 26 Raw show in Milwaukee, Wisconsin however it's been noted that Young was only there because his son is a big WWE fan and wanted to attend. Young is also from Wisconsin and was born just outside of Milwaukee.

If Young does indeed sign a three-year deal with ROH, then this could signal the end of his flirtation with WWE. He is turning 40 years old soon and WWE has been trending younger in recent years.

Thanks To Jim Ross.. What I said About ProWrestling.Net Is Indeed True (They Got Checked By me)

A few weeks ago I posted a story on how i corrected ProWrestling.Net on a story they ran claiming Jim Ross was part of a wrestling promotion that Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks were forming. Here's the links to these two stories where i put Jason Powell of ProWrestling.net in his place correcting him on this fact. https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2018/10/jim-ross-addresses-rumors-that-hes.html and https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2018/10/i-get-to-further-put-someone-at.html and oh yes let's not forget this link either. https://billsbrandnewblog.blogspot.com/2018/10/further-fun-putting-someone-at.html

So now.. To further the point that I knew i was right all along and that Mr. Powell at ProWrestling.Net was incorrect (and has yet to even try, and correct himself on this) There's this bit of news, straight again? From the mouth of Jim Ross. So maybe som eone should tell proWrestling.Net that it's time to post that they were wrong and i was right, that is... if they even have them kind of balls (I doubt it).

The talk around the wrestling world is the rumored new promotion that Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks are trying to launch. Every day it seems there is a new name attached to this promotion which doesn't even exist yet, and Jim Ross has frequently been mentioned as part of it.
On the latest edition of his podcast, Ross addressed those rumors head-on and made it clear that he's not in business with Cody or anybody at this time.
"[We are] assuming one or two things in my opinion," Ross said about the rumored promotion. "It's either going to never happen because a TV deal could not be acquired or the TV deal is going to be finalized and it's going to be big… Feast or famine.
"The trademark thing with the Khan Family obviously got everyone's sensor stirred up again... Two things you have to have to start a wrestling company: Television…Talent. In that order."
Ross then says that the promotion would need a major TV contract and not something like ImpactWrestling has with Pop TV. If they can't obtain that, then they don't need any talent.
"If they don't get TV, there is no company," stated Ross. "I've been rumored to be in every role of this company, and I swear to God it's eye-rolling. At one point it's [Chris] Jericho and me, which I thought was really stupid. Me and Jericho are going to spend all of the money we've made over the years to get into the wrestling business? Are you crazy? Are you nuts?
"Then it's we're not involved at all and it's these other guys who are the movers and shakers...There ain't nothing to move here, folks. There ain't nothing to shake."
Everything to this point has just been speculation about the company and Ross says dominoes will really start to fall come 2019.
"I think activity, whether good, bad or indifferent, will escalate in the new year," said Ross. "TV networks are already in the decision-making mode because I know those talks have been ongoing. But I'm not in that loop. I'm not pitching to anybody. I don't have a job. I don't work for them… at this point in time.
"It's either not going to happen because the best TV situation could not be earned, or it's going to be big."
The Khan Family that Ross referenced owns the Jacksonville Jaguars of the NFL and Fulham F.C. of the EPL. They are billionaires and Ross says that they aren't going to want anything less than a top-notch product.
"If it happens I can't imagine the Khan Family is going to want to have a show that looks like a lesser quality-looking show than WWE," stated Ross.
