The Godfather Biography

The Godfather is one of the most popular and richest Wrestler who was born on May 16, 1961 in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States.

Wright first entered professional wrestling after being noticed tending to a bar by wrestlers during the filming of the movie Over the Top. The wrestlers involved gave him the advice that, with his large body type and unique (tattooed) look, he should try seeking out Larry Sharpe and his Monster Factory to get into the business. Eventually Wright parlayed his training into a job with Jerry Lawler in the United States Wrestling Association (USWA) with the gimmick the wrestlers from the bar had given him and took the name The Soultaker, taken from one of the tattoos on his arm. Even with his admitted limited skill set, he was given the USWA Unified World Heavyweight Championship on October 23, 1989, and held it for about two weeks.

During his time in the USWA, he would also tour in New Japan Pro Wrestling in 1990.

During the autumn of 1994, there were rumors that the Papa Shango character would be brought back to participate in a storyline involving Bob Backlund, wherein Shango’s voodoo spells would explain the traditionally good-natured Backlund’s erratic and villainous behavior. This didn’t come to fruition. Wright would eventually return to the WWF in early 1995 under the gimmick of Kama “The Supreme Fighting Machine”, a shoot fighter inspired on Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Kimo Leopoldo. Shortly after his debut, he joined Ted DiBiase’s Million Dollar Corporation stable. He became an immediate part of the stable’s feud with The Undertaker, stealing the Undertaker’s signature urn at April’s WrestleMania XI then having it melted down and formed into a necklace, only to lose it back to him at August’s SummerSlam. He was taken off of television in the fall of 1995, and after an appearance in the 1996 Royal Rumble match, Wright left the company again.

Wright was asked to return in 1997, with the original plans being for him to revive the Papa Shango character. Instead he returned as Kama, now billed under his full name, Kama Mustafa. He was announced as the first member of Faarooq’s faction the Nation of Domination. On the June 16 episode of Raw, Mustafa and Faarooq defeated Ahmed Johnson and The Undertaker. Mustafa became increasingly known as “The Godfather” of the Nation, a moniker which would eventually become his official ring name in mid-1998. He stood with the Nation when Rocky Maivia became the leader shortly after Wrestlemania XIV, standing with Maivia, Mark Henry, D’Lo Brown, and later Owen Hart after he joined the stable in early May of 1998.
