On this episode of Rick Del Santo’s Classic Wrestling Talk, Rick welcomes “The Motor City Madman” Mike Moore for a wide-ranging conversation about his unusual road into professional wrestling, his time in multiple territories, and the wild characters he crossed paths with along the way. Mike talks about growing up with a background in amateur wrestling, judo, boxing, and football, including walking on at Temple University and later being signed by the New Jersey Generals before an ankle injury changed that path. From there, he found his way into pro wrestling through Buddy Rogers, Pretty Boy Larry Sharpe, and the early days of the Monster Factory, where he was part of that first wave of big men coming through the school alongside names like Bam Bam Bigelow. What makes this interview fun is that Mike Moore comes across as honest, relaxed, and full of old school perspective. He remembers the business as rough, spontaneous, physical, and unpredictable, where you often found out who you were wrestling when you got to the building and had to figure it out from there. From the Monster Factory to Montreal, from WWF dark matches to WCW, Puerto Rico, ICW, the AWA, and beyond, this is a great conversation with a wrestler who traveled through a lot of interesting corners of the business and has plenty of stories to show for it.
