Promo with Boris Malenko & The Masked Superstar

This looks to be transferred from 8mm film, so this footage is of poor quality. From 1977, Les Thatcher interviews "Professor" Boris Malenko and The Masked Superstar regarding Superstar's blinding of The Mighty Igor with one of Malenko's lit cigars, and Superstar's subsequent suspension from Mid-Atlantic Wrestling. The Superstar-Igor feud was one of the hottest in Mid- Atlantic Wrestling at the time.

@elc1960 Thats's a shame. I would love to see some more footage of Boris Malenko because so many respected wrestlers have mentioned him. Terry Funk called him the best talker ever in his book. Thanks for the info.

Very little footage has survived of Boris Malenko (Dean's Dad). This is due largely to the then-common practice of the old affiliates destroying or "bulk-erasing" old wrestling tapes after they had shown them once. That's why YouTube and WWE On Demand have so little footage from before 1980. The only ones that have it are fans who had old reel tapes or Betamax tapes from the old days that they have uploaded to YouTube.

Superstar always had the coolest masks.
