RIP Kamala

[Waterproof]

Let me say something, I'm 43 year's old started watching wrestling in 1983 the glory territorial year's and Kamala was one of the biggest Draws for WWF, he packed houses, and not only that fans and kids was legit scared of him but at the same time he had a following

Hulkamania would not be Hulkamania with out Kamala, Kamala was a great heel, even Hulk told him to go to Vince to get more money you selling out these arena's. Kamala should of got the belt at least Once when he and Hogan was tearing the houses down and selling out arena's

Kamala was a Giant in the Land of The Giant's. Hogan, Andre The Giant, Undertaker he put them over

Oh yeah and put respect on his name he's a 4x USWA World Champion

Just came in to pay my respects. Sad he died in the condition he did. Not saying Vince is obligated to take care of everyone, but something could've been done to assist

Had 5 year old me shook. Seemed like a great guy. Apparently there is a go fund me for his funeral: Kamala funeral expenses, general help for family organized by Jason King

Never saw him before the Kamala character, but will need to go see some matches as Sugar Bear / Big James Harris.

Listening to the Busted Open Podcast, Mark Henry said Jericho helped James with his mortgage issues, respect to Jericho for that.

Mean Gene: "Kamala, what's this shyt about you missing interviews in St. Louis? "

EDIT - Already posted, but it is what it is.

There should be a system to care of older wrestlers...its not unreasonable...you see how well they do on their quarter profits..they're just greedy. Bezos wife gave away billions because she could and she just got that kind of money recently. Sad.
