Dusty Rhodes defeated NWA TV Champion in a non title barbed wire match in Baltimore in front of 13,500 fans
I was in Baltimore for this match.
The card went long, and this match started only a few minutes before curfew.
I remember the ring announcer stating that curfew was lifted.
Seems like the match lasted barely a minutes. IIRC Dusty threw Tully into the ropes wrapped in barbed wire, and then got the pin
Wow really? What a disappointment for the fans, they should have timed out the card better

Found the listing for the match. Says it went 4 minutes - that's 3 minutes more than I remember about it lol
I went to Baltimore monthly back in the 80's and it was not uncommon for the show to start late - sometimes almost 30 minutes
