If ‘Tulsa King’ Returns For Season 3, What Will Be The Plot?

In it King of Tulsa Season 2 finale Sylvester Stallone’s Dwight Manfredi seems to have most of his issues resolved.

In episode 9, Jackie Ming paid the ultimate price for trying to kill Dwight earlier in the season. In episode 10, Dwight is forced to wipe out Cal Thresher from the weed operation Cal ran with Ming, and the oil baron ultimately has to settle for making his money solely from oil.

In addition, Bill Bevilaqua still believes he is entitled to a 50 percent cut of Dwight’s business in Tulsa, but Dwight balks at the suggestion since he saved Bill and Cal from Ming.

Bill is obviously unhappy with Dwight, and it looks like he’s going to team up with Chickie Invernizzi to put the Tulsa King out of business. Shockingly, Bill executes Chickie in front of Dwight, prompting Dwight to give Bill the 50 percent he asked for because he deserved it.
