Sit back, pop open a cold one, and be prepared to have the time of your life as Robert Fuller takes you through one great tale after another in RF VIDEO’s newest exclusive shoot interview. One of wrestling’s national treasures, Fuller has been around wrestling since birth and is a natural born storyteller. Fans new and old are going to have a wide grin throughout the course of this THREE HOUR shoot as Fuller ranks right up there with the greats in his ability to captivate an audience. We say in full confidence that this will go down as one of the best reviewed DVDs of the year!
Fuller goes over his entire career, starting with his humble beginnings traveling the road with his grandfather. Just wait until you hear his incredible cigar/chop fest story and hear what would happen to him if he dared fall asleep in the car. Robert gives first person details about how tough his family was and their hard-nosed training tactics. You’ll get incredible stories of working down in Florida with Eddie Graham, up in Georgia for Ole Anderson, and over in Texas for the Funks and the Von Erichs. Fuller has a wonderful story for every big name you can think of. Dusty Rhodes. The Armstrongs. Hulk Hogan. Jerry Lawler. Dick Murdoch. Arn Anderson. Ric Flair. Austin Idol. The Freebirds. Ted Dibiase. Jeff Jarrett. Mick Foley. You name them, they’re here.
Of course we peppered Fuller about his Stud Stable taking over the Memphis scene in the ’80s, and he was more than happy to oblige. And you know we weren’t going to let Fuller go without going in-depth about his stay in WCW and his much talked about Col. Robert Parker character. Fuller talks about being involved in corny skits and all the craziness that happened in WCW, including the infamous Vader/Orndorff fight. You’ll get first hand accounts with a little gossip thrown in as well from one of wrestling’s best talkers. Don’t miss out!!
