As one of the great Super Heavyweights of all time, Gorilla Monsoon used his size and skill to be an upper card attraction for years.  A loyal ally of Vince McMahon Sr., Monsoon would continue that role with the junior McMahon when he bought the company.  Monsoon was given a lifetime job with the company and was the lead announcer throughout the 80’s.  Few were respected in and out of the ring more than Gorilla Monsoon.
