The Monster vs Mario Valenzuela



DESCRIPTION FROM YOUTUBE: "Very early 82' L.A wrestling"

COMMENT FROM YOURS TRULY: Another of those "often discussed, rarely seen" gimmicks, The Monster was a misguided, wrong-footed and short-lived attempt to revive the ailing Los Angeles promotion run by Mike LeBelle. Winner of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter's inaugural "Most Disgusting Promotional Tactic", The Monster was introduced with a series of vignettes and hype claiming that this wrestler was a genuine Frankenstein's monster, made in a lab from parts of cadavers. The only thing dead in the end was the promotion itself, shortly after the Monster disappeared.
