Episode 48: Lawsuit - Fuller vs. Garvin & Sugar Hold Challenge Debacle!

The Wrestling Stoop w/Bob Roop

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!!! More fun to be had this week, so pop a squat on the stoop and listen to more stories from Mr. Roop!
