When I was a kid I got to do event staff stuff at Central States shows. More than once the performers warned me not to talk to Bob Sweetan.

Lucky you followed their advice.

I was born, raised, and still live in Minnesota and when I was a kid in the 80s, my favorite AWA wrestler was Buck Zumhoffe. Eventually, I became a referee on the Indy circuit and met Buck a few times. Then I found out what he was into and if you don’t know, let’s just say that he probably got along really well with Bob Sweetan and Grizzly Smith.

[@jpowers55]

My first time hearing about this dude. I clicked the thumbnail thinking it was Sycho Sid Viscous only to find out, thankfully, it wasn't.

[@85futureshock]

Paul Boesch wouldn’t book him in Houston because he was such a morally repugnant individual who had a bad reputation. In an industry with lots of shady characters, you have to be pretty bad to stand out even more than usual.

[@TheREALOC1972]

Joe Blanchard was the same way, Grizzly Smith, Sweetan and Zumhof were untouchable, the difference between Leroy and The Gagne's though is that Vern and Greg knew what was going on with Zumhof and his daughter and did nothing.

I remember years ago watching one of those Legends of Wrestling roundtables on WWE 24/7 and J.R. made a quick comment about Bob Sweetan being a miserable human being. I never knew the details behind that comment until watching this clip.

Ross very smart guy , but seemed like he compromised his integrity . Seems like he realized that , but easy to judge when you ain’t there

[@3percenter585]

Sweetan for a long time in Mid-South was the brass knuckles champion. You could tell he was real stiff with the lesser talent in the ring and would bust them up pretty bad. Danny Hodge had enough of him at one time and beat the snot out of him in the locker room, enough to send him back up north.

My Uncle was a Deputy Sheriff in San Francisco. He broke up a fight between Bob Sweetan and Ray Stevens at a bar near the Cow Palace around 1979 or 1980. Stevens beat the hell out of him and had him bloodied up pretty good according to my Uncle.

There’s been a lot of really good changes. Even with the bad stuff that’s happened in modern wrestling it’s nothing like the stuff you hear about from the old days.

If they had social media back then, oh man......

[@thebigandgreat1]

As much of a fan I am of the old-school style of the business I am glad that wrestling of today doesn't deal with the scum and dregs of society like in years past. There's a lot to be desired for me as a fan with today's pro wrestling approach, but I'm glad that the sport is cleaner drug and alcohol wise and physical and s&#%al abuse gets punished.

Are you at liberty to say who else besides Sweetan were gotten rid of with the Watts purge? The whole saga is a GD shame because when I first read about him in the Apter mags, he looked legit. But after hearing about all of what changed my mind about him--and damned quickly at that--I then understood why *every* extant photo of him has a completely emotionless stare. Now whenever I hear of YT videos of an actual *face* run of his, I am all the more sickened. n I recuse myself from further commentary particularly about BS pursuant to my personal belief in not speaking ill of the dead,
