Match: Tommy Rich vs. Larry Zbyszko/Promos: Tommy Rich, Dick Murdoch. WCW, April 1983

After paying Killer Brooks $25,000 for the belt, freshly, illegitimately minted National Heavyweight Champion Larry Zbyszko (he would be stripped of the belt by the end of the month) grants Tommy “Wildfire“ Rich a title defense on television, but only a ten minute time limit. Zybyszko aggravates Rich by doing things to run out the clock. After the match, Tommy Rich, joined by Tony Atlas, has some special words with Gordon Solie. Dick Murdoch speaks briefly about his upcoming tag match with Dusty Rhodes against Koloff and The Iron Sheik. WCW, April 1983.
