The task force held their hearings on the 44th floor of the World Trade Center in New York City. Over 200 people were asked to testify, but only a handful agreed. Captain Lou Albano told The New York Times that he did not agree to testify because, "some of these politicians have brains the size of dehydrated peas." Morgus the Maniac (incorrectly identified as Manfred the Maniac) also told The New York Times he turned the invitation down and added that if he had testified he may have felt compelled to body slam members of the task force. Sheik Ali was one of the few wrestlers who testified and he denied that wrestling had predetermined outcomes. Former wrestler Eddy Mansfield told the task force that wrestling was fixed.
