This week on the Wrestling Stoop w/Bob Roop, we take a deep dive look into the lawsuit of one Ron Fuller (Welch) vs. Ron Garvin in the Knoxville territory. Fuller suing Garvin for the reimbursement of a $12,000 loan for a Bayliner boat (that's $52,00 0 in today's money!), and the return of Fuller's Southeastern Heavyweight Title belt! Listen to excerpts from the book "Pro Wrestling & The Law", including actual transcripts from the court case which features Fuller admitting that Pro Wrestling matches are pre-determined! Find out the judges ruling and what "unclean hands" means in the court system. Then from there, we dive into the ICW's infamous "Sugar Hold Challenge", where Angelo Poffo forced Bob Roop to take on fans from the audience, with the promise of $1,000 to any fan that could escape Roop's Sugar Hold! SPOILER ALERT.... SOMEONE ESCAPES THE HOLD... BUT ANGELO DOESN'T WANT TO PAY!!!

The Wrestling Stoop w/Bob Roop returns this week as we discuss the "Knoxville Five" and their FINAL night in the Southeastern territory, the following week's card featuring Roop & company sitting in the crowd (find out the REAL reason why), and the first week of the brand new All-Star Wrestling promotion running opposition to the NWA. All the while, Bob dispels, shuts down, & calls into question MANY stories & false narratives that have been spread about the entire situation. We talk comments made by the likes of Ron Fuller, Jimmy Golden not blaming the group for leaving Southeastern, why the Knoxville 5 was really the "Knoxville Seven", the impact Dick Slater played in clipping the new company's wings before they could fly, early issues with getting TV, having the deck stacked against the new outlaw territory from the start, & so much more!
