The Wrestling Stoop w/Bob Roop: Episode 01 (Breaking In & Catching Up)
It's the debut edition of The Wrestling Stoop podcast with the legendary Bob Roop. In this episode, we catch up with what Bob has been doing since retirement before we head back in time to talk the early days. At the top of the program Roop will also address recent comments made by Ron Fuller and Kevin Sullivan, touching on his issues while in the Knoxville territory that led to the defection of the Knoxville 5 and "Plan B" video.
From there, we go back in time to talk Bob breaking into the business, meeting Sam Muchnick, flamboyant Eddie Graham, amateur colleague Larry Kristoff's only pro match, some GREAT stories involving Sputnik Monroe (including Sputnik getting cute with Danny Hodge), and we learn that there's heat... and then, there's Ron Wright Heat!
Other topics include... which promoter paid the best, what Gordon Solie was like behind the scenes, Larry Heinimi and his Cadillac, the absurdity of a wristlock, the Snake Pit training grounds in Florida, the heat getting Mario Galento, and so much more! Other names discussed in this episode include Jack Brisco, Ron Garvin, Bob Orton, Dick Slater, Verne Gagne, Dale Lewis, Mephisto - Frankie Cain, Louie Tillet, Hiro Matsuda, Sonny King, Gordon Nelson, Danny Hodge, The Great Boris Malenko, and Ron Simmons (DAMN!). And that's just in Episode #1!
A former National AAU Champion and U.S. Olympian, Bob doesn't hold back and opens up about his time in the world of Professional Wrestling.
