How did Dwight Manfredi meet Bigfoot in Tulsa King Season 2? Details explored

Tulsa King Season 2 maintained the gripping narrative of Dwight Manfredi trying to build his own criminal empire amid rising threats. With new storylines, season 2 also introduced a couple of new characters that have now become fan favorites. One of those characters is Mike Walden’s Bigfoot.

Bigfoot is Mitch’s cousin, who introduces him to Stallone’s Dwight, right after he is released from prison. Bigfoot impresses Dwight with his clever and friendly demeanor and buffed-up appearance, and he is hired as a bodyguard for Manfredi. The role eventually became bigger as, at the time, Dwight needed men like Bigfoot, as the threat of violence was already increasing in the Season.

More on this in our story.

Tulsa King Season 2: Dwight and Bigfoot’s first meeting

After Dwight pleads not guilty in the bribery case and is bailed out of prison, his plans become bigger. While Chickie's threat still looms over Dwight, numerous other threats, like the Kansas City mob, have been developing. Due to this, he might need more muscle to fight the violent path ahead. Therefore, Bigfoot’s addition becomes crucial for Dwight’s team ahead of the fights that have been brewing.

Dwight and Bigfoot are introduced to each other in the casino in the premiere episode of Tulsa King Season 2, when his cousin, Mitch (played by Garret Hedlund), introduces them. While he might look like a guy with just muscle and nothing else, Walden’s Bigfoot appears to be much more than his physical appearance.

Bigfoot is charming and friendly and knows when to bash someone’s head, and is only looking for work to feed his family. This is the reason why Dwight hired him as his suited bodyguard. His optimistic outlook on life doesn't hamper his reflexes when he senses danger, as we have seen how he stopped Cal from drawing a gun on Dwight in Episode 3 of Tulsa King Season 2, making him a reliable and important addition to Dwight’s colourful gang.

More about Bigfoot from Tulsa King Season 2

While in season 3, Bigfoot is one of the main characters; he shone through in the limited screen time in Tulsa King Season 2 as well. Most of his entertaining scenes came from his interpretation of other things beyond violence, as he also shows interest in people's psychology.

In addition, Bigfoot, who might remind you of the Mountain from Game of Thrones, has so much color in his personality that makes him one of the beloved characters from Stallone’s show. He is aware of his strength, which gives him so much confidence that he barely twitches when someone makes fun of his name.

Further in Season 2, he also plays a key role in capturing the gangster named Jackie Ming, who is later killed by Tyson.
