love it when my man Undertaker put him in a coffin.
also remember his brief rivalry with one of my childhood heroes Junkyard Dog.
he was one of the first wrestlers who actually scared me when I was a kid....his entrance with that tribal music and those eyes.
I remember the promo from wccw.

yes...he was hall of fame worthy...too bad he passed.

put him in.

Are you sure he has passed on? Can't find any information online that states that he has. I know he had health issues with diabetes/double amputation a while back.

Remember seeing him at the Myriad in OKC and he did a horrible job of selling a injury that was pretty funny, his manager used to lead him out to the ring wearing a pith helmut which was cool.

He had health issues the last few months but he is not deceased yet. I would think the family would have said something first since they always have been on social media updating people about his health.

Hall of Fame for a scripted sport
Does this mean he is one of the best at following a script?

Kamala started out of Memphis Wrestling with Jerry Lawler. James Harris came to a showing and told Lawler he wanted to become a wrestler and Lawler gave Harris the gimmick next week....Jerry Lawler use to be an artist and he did a lot of the WWE wrestlers costumes also.

I remember Kamala in Mid-South Wrestling as well. It is a shame that he lost both feet, then he lost both legs due to sugar diabetes.

Pretty sure our just recently deceased former Q.B. COACH Wade Wilson suffered from the varying degreed stages of that particular debilitating ailment hisself ( I' m almost certain I've read something along those lines awhile back)
