About this listen
Today on the show, Tony Richards welcomes Bobby Simmons back to the show as they return to the state of Georgia in the Summer months of 1975. Bobby was working as both a referee and also in the office for Jim Barnett and booker Tom Renesto during this time and has plenty of stories about the happening in the Georgia territory. Bobby tells some great Abdullah the Butcher stories, stories about the new tag team of Bob Orton, Jr and Dick Slater, Jerry Brisco, Jerry Lawler and Don Greene, and a fairly gruesome story about a Mr. Fuji rib you’ll have to hear to believe. There are some new names in the territory you will recognize just starting out here in 1975. They cover the whole state of Georgia in this episode of the Pro Wrestling Time Tunnel podcast.
