On this episode host Karl Stern (DragonKingKarl) takes a look at the monster Big Van Vader. Leon White originally debuted in the AWA as a former NFL football star, but after going to Japan and being given the gimmick of the space monster Big Van Vader, his career opened up internationally in a big way, including a riot against Antonio Inoki, almost losing an eye against Stan Hansen, world titles in Mexico, Japan, Europe, and the United States.
