Is because Harley race did a favor for the business when he put rich over, he damn sure wasn’t doing it for Tommy Rich I can tell you that right now! He did it somewhat for Barnett but more so for Muchnick and the NWA at the time that either the AWA or the WWF were gonna come- and he wanted to protect himself, Ric Flair, Sam, and other NWA interests. This was the only sure way to do it because it was so preposterous that Rich could beat him. I wish Harley hadn’t put this hack over

Kill Tommy Young in front of all those fans, and while it would not have made it to TV at that point, and at least the lights were going in and out so the fans didn’t freak out, but the fans who did see it would have been traumatized! And why the hell was a baby face putting his hands on a ref anyway, even if it wasn’t a lot? Sorry but Tommy Rich IS a trash wrestler indeed, and I’ve held this opinion long before BTT podcasts were a thing. The only reason he’s even in this match and spot anyhow

But anyway, I know Mike Mills and several others know this, and I can’t really remember what all Young said on the podcast, but this match was not supposed to be anything to really start a feud with them per se, but a simple slow heel turn by Mike against a guy the fans liked. And having Mike face a jobber wasn’t gonna do anything to help because Mike himself needed a boost. But it wound up having to be so much more because that stupid idiot Rich legitimately could have and almost did...

Was to work the ring corners until they had a chance to work around and do things to convey messages to get the right response from the back, and by the time Rich does THIRTEEN corner punches someone HAS to know by now that it’s really bad because A) it’s not the standard ten B) the ref would have broken it up after ten probably and C) the crowd is counting along and by this time that’s the extent of Rich’s ability to count as well as some of the fans 😂

That he has to check on him and get help- but since they had been having light issues the fans really could not tell what was going on, and probably there was some sort of delayed issues getting a message to the back. My guess is then that the only way they can really continue to work the match in a logical way to protect the business, the finish, and the angle- at least for Mike- but to get help for Tommy...

Without having been using overly heel tactics then- which the real finish probably was supposed to have some sort of tactics like Rotunda wound up using- but that kick was designed to do at least a few things- get an idea of how bad and where Tommy was hurt without looking back over while he was making the pin or asking him out loud- nobody was able to give Mike any nonverbal communication to where he wouldn’t have had to do that. He then knows almost immediately that it’s a neck injury and

*Young* in a way that would not hurt him, made sense as to why a wrestler beginning a heel turn

Fans won’t really be able to know that they’re discussing something. They needed to be able to get over there towards him kinda slowly, but without jarring the ring of that would have given away the match and finish- by painfully obviously having had to see that Tommy was hurt and therefore they have to stop the match. So they work on the mat and he goes for a pin that had Mike being able to kick Tommy Yoingas he did in a way that would not

After those punches, Mike kinda does a turn with his back to the ropes. That probably tells Tommy that he needs to wrap up Mike somehow, and the only way he can do so is to put a sleeper hold on him. Which of course it is absurd that somebody would put a sleeper hold on anyone from the outside of the ring on the apron except as a call spot that the fans

Rotunda protected the finish, he protected Tommy Rich from his own damn self- look at when he throws Tommy over the top rope- he knows something is amiss because that would have been a DQ If Tommy Young had seen that- which there was no reason why Tommy wouldn’t have seen it. Then the stupid jackass Tommy Rich, who still doesn’t have a clue yet what to do but probably at least by now knows something is wrong, at least puts Rotunda in a sleeper- but even that is on Rotunda because
