Can somebody jog my memory of what the name was of a monster truck show that came on in the mid 90's. I'm sure it was syndicated. Here in Memphis it came on Saturday mornings after WWF Challenge. I've never been a fan of monster trucks or anything, but I would watch it because they had characters representing each monster truck that would cut wrestling styled promos on each other standing in front of a green screen with the truck's logo behind them. I know Grave Digger was one and I think that was woman that turned into a panther or something. I always thought it was called Monster Jam, but all I can find is a TV show called that from the 2000's, and this would have been around 1994-95.
I'm sure someone knows what I'm talking about. I was just wanting to find some of those promos on Youtube and can't find any.

Its funny how time changes perception because I honestly thought that the Gravedigger mascot was cool and scary looking and then after looking at it on Youtube I see that it is just a cheesy fake Skeletor costume. Honestly if more sports that I didn't care about had their mascots cut wrestling promos on each other I would probably have watched them too back then. |

That was on TNN, right? Between wrestling and all this cheesy monster truck talk, my childhood memories are flooding back. |

I miss the days of trucks being independently owned and operated, and you had trucks that had better names instead of having these goofy ass bodies on them now. And I miss the real racing and points standings, instead of the crap they do now.
One of my favorite independent trucks. I miss Casper.

I remember this. I think after a victory, one mascot had the helmet of the other in his hands as some type of trophy.
I wonder if any of these guys went to some success in pro wrestling.
