Gorilla Monsoon, also known as Robert James “Gino” Marella, was a prominent figure in American professional wrestling. He began as a villainous super-heavyweight main eventer before transitioning to a successful role as a play-by-play commentator and backstage manager for the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in the 1980s and 1990s. Monsoon’s on-screen portrayal as WWF President solidified his legacy in the industry. The “Gorilla Position,” located behind the entrance curtain at wrestling events, is named in his honor, reflecting his lasting impact on the sport.
