Episode 37
Season 1
Episode 37: Injuries, Ortons, The Gladiator, & More! (CWF 1976)
This week The Wrestling Stoop goes in depth as we tackle the first 6 months of 1976 in the Florida territory! A 6-month story arch with many twists & turns! We tackle the formation of "The Bobs", as a deadly triad begins. Bob Roop begins teaming with Bob Orton, Jr... and the duo quickly make a huge impression after they piledrive Mike Graham on the studio floor and put him out of action for more than a month. We talk the feud against Eddie Graham, the Florida Tag Title run, the imminent return of Mike for revenge, Bob Roop's real-life injury and surgery that was worked into the storyline, the banning of the Figure Four, the debut of "The Gladiator" (and his subsequent unmasking), Bob Orton Sr. turning heel and joining the other Bobs in the war against good, and so much more.
