NWA World Wide Wrestling 1979 - Ernie Ladd & John Studd vs Johnny Weaver & Herb Gallant

From a 1979 episode of NWA World Wide Wrestling from WRAL-TV Studios in Raleigh, NC. Rich Landrum is the host:
Tag team action with "Big Cat" Ernie Ladd & Big John Studd vs Johnny Weaver & Herb Gallant. There's several moments of dead time after the introductions before the bout starts - I forgot to edit it out. The match is followed by an interview with U.S. Heavyweight Champion, Ricky Steamboat.
