This year, Kamala may find his way into the WWE Hall of Fame.
Kamala, real name James Harris, portrayed a fearsome and “wild savage” character, complete with face and body paint, a loincloth, and a spear. He was often managed by handlers who would “control” him. He had multiple runs in the WWE during the 1980s and 1990s. During his tenure, he feuded with the likes of Hulk Hogan and The Undertaker.
WrestleVotes reports that the company has discussed the former wrestling star for the honor. If he is chosen, he will join Triple H and Lex Luger among the class’s names.
The account wrote, “According to sources, another name being discussed internally for the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2025 is “The Ugandan Giant” Kamala. Kamala, who had a successful career throughout the ‘80s and ‘90s, is expected to join Triple H, Lex Luger, and others in this year’s class.”
