Eric Bischoff coming to MLW for One-Shot event

Eric Bischoff is coming to MLW for an event in New York City this December.

Touting that he will have creative control for one night only, MLW has announced Bischoff for their One-Shot show in Queens on Thursday, December 5. MLW is hyping that this is Bischoff promoting a show in “enemy territory” after going against the Northeast-based WWE while leading WCW during the Monday Night Wars.

The news was made official after actor/wrestler Paul Walter Hauser invited Bischoff to MLW during an appearance on his Wise Choices podcast.

“Bischoff will have total control over MLW for one night only. From matchmaking to the TV trucks, Bischoff will oversee the event in his vision,” the promotion wrote. “The unique opportunity for Bischoff to call the shots came about during a recent episode of Bischoff’s YouTube show, Wise Choices, where he was joined by MLW’s Paul Walter Hauser. When asked what he would do if he had one more chance to run a wrestling show his way, Hauser seized the moment, calling MLW owner Court Bauer live on the air to pitch the concept. Bauer gave an enthusiastic YES.”

One-Shot 2024 is being held at the Melrose Ballroom on December 5 and will air live for free on MLW’s YouTube channel. No matches have been announced for the show yet.

This will be Bischoff’s first-ever appearance for MLW. He previously had a show on the MLW Radio network.
