Mad Mike is a pizza chef monster who serves as the main antagonist of the episode "Trouble by the Slice".
History
Mad Mike the Pizza Chef was created by Porto when he touched a picture of the mascot of Mad Mike's Pizza Parlor on the pizza box associated with the restaurant bringing it to life. His mission was to distract the Turbo Rangers so that Porto, Elgar, and Rygog could find and rescue Divatox who had amnesia.
He fought the Rangers and was strong in hand to hand combat. He threw his pizza discs at them. Then he took control of Lightning Cruiser and Storm Blaster by covering their wheels with evil pizzas, which then caused the two vehicles to attack the Rangers and send them hurtling into his Colossal Cooker, which Mad Mike used to bake the Rangers into a giant Power Rangers pizza (complete with onions, green peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, pepperoni, and extra cheese). As he was getting ready to eat them, Blue Senturion freed the Lightning Cruiser and Storm Blaster from the evil pizzas with a stoplight, then freed the Rangers with his Senturion Synergizer, and they delivered a beating to Mad Mike, the knockout blow being a one-two jump punch by T.J. and the Blue Senturion before they defeated him with the new Turbine Laser.
However, Divatox (memory now restored) quickly turned him into a giant using the Subcraft's torpedoes. The Blur Senturion summoned his Robo Racer but was overwhelmed by explosive pizzas. Luckily, the Turbo Megazord jumped in and energy kicked Mad Mike down before the Blue Senturion weakened him with the Synergizer Blaster Mode and the Turbo Megazord destroyed him with its Turbo Megazord Spinout.
