CWF Promoter Eddie Graham was a huge supporter and fan of real wrestling. He would send Danny Hodge and Dory Funk Jr to work out with the High School wrestling team.
Eddie also demanded respect and wanted people to think it was real. He didn't take crap from no one.
He took this business very seriously.
He made Bob Roop basically be his hired gunslinger and stretch the guys who thought they were wrestlers.
Bob for his part to this day regrets and hated that he would hurt these young guys.
