The Golden Era of Professional Wrestling, from 1982 to 1992, saw Vince McMahon's WWF dominate the industry, led by Hulk Hogan. PRIME TIME WRESTLING was a notable program during this period, offering a unique two-hour show with top matches from WWF Superstars and Wrestling Challenge, along with exclusive bouts from various venues across the USA. From 1986 to 1991, Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan hosted the program, known for their analysis and comedic banter.
During this week's episode of PRIME TIME WRESTLING, which aired on Tuesday, September 20, 1988, Vince McMahon substituted for an ill Gorilla Monsoon.
