Summary
On this episode of What Happened When, Tony and Conrad take us back to the 1980s for some truly bizarre in-ring action from Chicagoland's very own Bob Luce!
Bob Luce's Monsters of the Mat embraced the wild, the wacky, and the downright creepy sides of professional wrestling. From mind-controlling sinister ministers to nearly unintelligible Kentucky beasts, this show had it all — and Tony and Conrad are here to relive every outrageous moment.
