- TriviaWhile training to become a wrestler, Herman reads the book 'Method Wrestling', probably a joke on 'Method' acting, a range of training and rehearsal techniques that seek to encourage sincere and emotionally expressive performances. These techniques were developed by the Russian actor and director Konstantin Stanislavski and captured in his books 'An Actor Prepares' (1936), 'Building a Character' (1948), and 'Creating a Role' (1957).
- GoofsWhile in training for wrestling Herman is wearing a jacket that states Transylvania Olympic Team 1841. The modern Olympics didn't start again until 1896.

Lily Munster: [Herman is on the phone] Well, I hope that's not another salesman on the phone trying to sell us more cemetery plots. We have enought trouble making the payments on this place without thinking of resort property.
Featured review
Herman, the Munster heel.
In order to raise some extra cash to go towards Eddie's college fund, Herman takes a second jobas a professional wrestler nicknamed The Masked Marvel. With only Grandpa aware of the hulking fighter's true identity, the rest of the Munster family cheer for Herman's opponents, all of whom abuse his kind nature to win their bout.
Herman The Great features the usual plethora of ghoulish puns, a few silly wrestling matches with Herman throwing each fight after hearing sob stories from his opposition, and a fun finale which sees The Masked Marvel becoming a hero after removing his hood to warn spectators of a fire in the arena: when the shocked crowd clock Herman's frightful fizzog, they clear the room in record time! In short, it's not an absolutely unmissable Munster episode, but it passes the time quite nicely.
