  • The Dragon Master along with his manager, Christopher Love(Bert Prentice) debut with a cheesy video and interview. He comes out in a casket like Undertaker. Dragon Master lasted about a month before leaving the territory. He feuded with Jerry Lawler.

    The Dragon Master should've tag teamed with Ta-Gar Lord Of The Volcano. It would've been epic!

      In all seriousness, Lawler’s approach was actually pretty clever for the limited resources he had to work with. Between facing off with serious wrestlers like Bobby Eaton or Harley Race, he’d roll out these over the top “monsters” to fill the gaps and keep the audience’s attention. That said, it doesn’t make the likes of The Dragon Master or TaGar Lord of the Volcano any less hilarious.
