NEW YORK, NY — MLW fans are in for a historic and unprecedented event as Eric Bischoff, the mastermind who changed the face of wrestling during the Monday Night Wars, returns to take control at MLW ONE-SHOT. See it go down on Thursday, December 5, live from the Melrose Ballroom in New York City and presented for free on YouTube.

In a twist that no one saw coming, 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 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.

With a career steeped in transforming pro wrestling, Bischoff’s influence reshaped the sport in the 1990s, headlining as Executive Vice President of WCW. Bischoff famously led WCW’s rise, dominating the wrestling landscape for 83 weeks and challenging WWE in an intense ratings war. Known for his bold, cutting-edge approach, Bischoff innovated and pushed the boundaries of wrestling, with big matches, iconic moments, and surprise twists that kept audiences and competition on the edge of their seats. Now, in 2024, he has the opportunity to return to power, bringing his visionary style to MLW for one unforgettable night.

This will mark Bischoff’s first-ever wrestling event promoted in New York City – a place that, during the historic Monday Night War, was considered “enemy territory.” With Bischoff now at the helm of MLW in the Big Apple, fans are already speculating about how the mastermind behind wrestling’s most shocking moments will make his mark on the MLW stage.


MLW ONE-SHOT has become one of the most talked-about MLW events, inviting trailblazers of the sport to take command and execute their creative vision for one night.

Will Eric Bischoff, the mastermind behind some of wrestling’s biggest moments, be able to reshape MLW for one explosive night?

Find out on Thursday, December 5, at MLW ONE-SHOT, presented live on YouTube from the Melrose Ballroom in New York City – and join fans from around the world for this historic, free-to-view event.

Fans are in for a wild night in the Big Apple as Eric Bischoff takes the helm as Executive Producer for ONE-SHOT on December 5, live and free on YouTube from the Melrose Ballroom in New York City. In an event packed with blockbuster matches, Bischoff is pulling no punches, and at the center of the night’s action is a highly anticipated clash: Matt Riddle vs. Donovan Dijak.

Both undefeated in MLW, Matt Riddle and Donovan Dijak are set to collide in what could alter the path to the MLW World Heavyweight Title for Riddle. Riddle, the #1 contender for Satoshi Kojima’s championship, is renowned for his fearless fighting style and eagerness to face anyone, anywhere, in any type of match. But standing in his way is Donovan Dijak, the disruptor who has been tearing through MLW competition and leaving his mark, most recently sidelining fellow MMA fighter and ex-MLW World Heavyweight Champion Tom Lawlor. Backed by his conniving portly manager, Saint Laurent, Dijak has been doomsday for many in MLW, raising questions about whether he might derail Riddle’s march to the title.

Eric Bischoff’s return to wrestling with Major League Wrestling has one purpose: to deliver a night of can’t-miss wrestling. With ONE-SHOT, he’s presenting a marquee event for fans around the world to watch live on YouTube for free. This match could be a main event anywhere but for ONE-SHOT, it’s just one of the blockbuster bouts on deck.

Will Dijak hijack Riddle’s path to the title, or will Riddle overcome the disruptor to stay on course for the biggest prize in Major League Wrestling? Only one way to find out.

Tickets start at $15 at http://www.MLWNYC.com. Tickets will also be available day of show at the box office unless the event sales out in advance.​

Executive Producer Eric Bischoff is pulling out all the stops for ONE-SHOT, airing live and free on YouTube from New York City’s Melrose Ballroom on December 5. The night promises unforgettable moments, and one of the evening’s most anticipated bouts will see Mexican sensation Místico defend his MLW World Middleweight Championship against Trevor Lee, making his MLW debut in one of the biggest matches of his career.

For Eric Bischoff, the legendary figure who introduced luchadores to American audiences in the 1990s, the opportunity to spotlight Místico—Mexico’s biggest box office star of the 21st century—is one he couldn’t resist.

Trevor Lee steps into MLW ready to prove himself. What better debut than to challenge for the MLW World Middleweight Championship? A victory would not only make him a champion in his first MLW appearance but would also etch his name in MLW history, forever remembered as the man who took down Místico’s incredible reign.

Místico’s championship run has been nothing short of spectacular. Since capturing the title last spring, he’s continued his dominance, winning the 2024 Opera Cup in September and headlining a sold-out Cicero Stadium this past weekend. His popularity and unstoppable momentum make him one of the sport’s best.

Eric Bischoff boasts ONE-SHOT is about big moments and big matches. With Místico vs. Trevor Lee for the World Middleweight Championship, fans will enjoy a match they’ll never forget.

It’s one night, one chance, and one shot to see something extraordinary.

Will Trevor Lee make history by winning gold in his MLW debut, or will Místico’s extraordinary reign continue in front of a worldwide audience? The stakes couldn’t be higher.

It would be good for the lineage of the MLW World Heavyweight title if Ultimo Guerrero defeated Kojima and then lost the title to Mistico. I think UG can work a good match against Kojima and UG vs Mistico is a lucha libre classic.
