From MLW:

Major League Wrestling today announced a No Ropes Barbed Wire Match: Jimmy Havoc vs. Mance Warner at MLW: Zero Hour at the NYTEX Sports Centre in the greater Dallas/Ft. Worth area on Saturday January 11. The event will be a MLW FUSION TV taping for beIN SPORTS.

For the first time in 16 years Major League Wrestling will promote the most dangerous match in the sport: a no ropes barbed wire match.

The Lord of the Death Match Jimmy Havoc has earned a reputation around the world as the most dangerous wrestler. Feared for his violent tendencies and twisted tactics in matches, Havoc is sadistic top ranked wrestler.

Mance Warner, the Bucksnort brawler, is one of the most unpredictable and beloved wrestlers in 
the league. Known for his uncanny threshold for pain, Ol Mancer is no pushover once the bell rings... and come January 11 he guarantees the "Southern Psychopath" will be unleashed when he faces Havoc.

Why a barbed wire match?

The answer can be tied Jimmy Havoc brutally attacking Mance Warner with a coil of barbed wire that ultimately put Warner in the hospital.  Since that time, the two men have fought and bled in and out of the ring including a Stairway to Hell match that saw Havoc once again bludgeon Mance with barbed wire. Now league officials look to contain both men by having them enter a ring to settle their feud once and for all in a match where the perimeter is wrapped in barbed wire.
