Stoop 69: Discussing Global Wrestling (Solie, Dr. Red Roberts, Death Row, More)

The Wrestling Stoop w/Bob Roop

This week on the Wrestling Stoop, Bob goes back and talks the early inception of the late 80's Florida promotion and the first publicly traded wrestling company, the Global Wrestling Alliance. We discuss how Boris Malenko played a part in getting Bob involved, meeting Dr. Red Roberts for the first time, dealing with the corporate "suits", hiring Gordon Solie and what led to his firing(!), how tapings were scheduled, the Soul Patrol, Rusty Brooks, Death Row, innovative vignettes and segments on the TV program, and more!
