My rotation of classic pro wrestling history topics continues on this week’s DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show. 

On a “From the Pages of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter” edition, we look back at Dave Meltzer’s biography on the death of Gorilla Monsoon which subscribers can read here.

Not only was Monsoon a notable commentator during the Hulkamania era of WWF, the man known as Robert Marella was a main event level pro wrestler and owner of percentages of two major pro wrestling companies as well in both WWF and WWC. 

This is the story of Gorilla Monsoon.
