Think it over. He was standing behind Door #2 waiting for his entrance, with no studio monitors near him. It's very possible that he didn't know what was going on, except that something *was,* from the audience's reaction.
Those of you who've seen how things are set up backstage (and knowing that things like that are pretty much the same then as now)--is that a correct assumption that Barker can't see any monitors where he makes his entrance? [/quote]
There is 1 monitor on each side of Door 2.
You can see the monitor in this photo:
