Freddie Blassie & Kamala in Piper's Pit

[TheTzdope]

@starboybillysynth i thought it was san francisco!

[davekn74]

He knows nothing about wrestling.. only brutality.. This is the greatest response possible to this question. If a question ever begins with do you know anything about something, say no. only brutality

[rufus317]

Isn't Friday/Kim Chee

[TheMashwatcher585]

piper had kamala on another pit and piper said that he is definately not from texas lol

[Rahgroove89]

kamala for hof 2012!!

[blaknyte08]

Kamala looked much more vicious n intimidating back then

[VolumedMusicMan]

how did friday turn into kimchee LOL?

[thyczko2]

he look great in a tux

[MitsuharuMisawaRIP]

Talk about hardcore...ECW fucktards may say that guys like Sabu and Balls Mahoney are hardcore. Fred Blassie was hardcore before hardcore was even a word. Especially during his Vampire days

[bigrigbob2010]

@MitsuharuMisawaRIP None of the ECW guy's ever caused people watching to have heart attacks !

[MitsuharuMisawaRIP]

1 retard/noob who has no clue what real wrestling is disliked this video

[MALANGA1]

Friday was Frank Dalton. Lombardi became KimChee later on. Lombardi was taller and bulkier.

[MALANGA1]

Friday was Frank Dalton. Kimchee was Lombardi.

Lombardi was taller and bulkier.

[RayNDeere]

This is an early appearance for Kamala in the WWE. My guess is about 1984. I don't think he lasted long in this run, but came back about three years later.

[nygnyg1]

a cannibal from Mississippe

[geechi71]

I forgot how funny this stuff was!

[MFMoshDEK]

Classy Freddie Blassy used to punk out pencil neck geeks on the daily!!

[southplnk]

@MFMoshDEK including you

[Coldstonechampion]

what politically incorrect is that there no cannibalistic tribes in Africa only in South America

[rickhuck64]

They paid this dumb black guy to dress up like a goddamn fool and beat on his stomach. He's from Uganda, that dumb fucker from Texas or Arkansas.

[suspekt29]

Did Kamala ever beat anyone aside from jobbers?

[Bloodsport1]

@suspekt29 Kamala is a legend my friend. Check out his legendary matches with Brody, Von Erich, Andre. Kamala was a big name in the World Class Championship Wrestling

[Lfdjake91]

Although I watched wrestling all the time back then I barely remember Kamala's WWF run. I remeber him better from his time in WCCW w/ manager Gen. Skandor Akbar.

[mykielbasa]

When he beats his stomach he's ready for FOOD!!!

[heidelbergBW]

kamala was there in 84!!??!

well wank me sideways and call me susan

[mastervoz]

Kamala is from Mississippi. Senatobia to be exact.

[VolumedMusicMan]

Cmon Vince Friday was in Robinson Caruso WTF?

[mistabig3]

These were the great days when wreslting was fantastic. Vince or anyone at WWE if you read this quit giving us the shit you give us nowadays we want it like it used to be in the 1980s

[wizardmig]

I couldn't agree with you more.

[bearsu]

I tell ya... Classic Freddie Blassie not too many of him around anymore. Vintage Pipers Pit and Kamala... ... Man those were the days.... Wrestling should go back to the future... I like all the broads but save for the recent Randy O/Shane O feud (not bad loved that head kick) where are the characters the sub plots? A Good Manager or two wouldn't hurt. I'm available "Bear the Brain" SU

[Lfdjake91]

Yeah, I enjoyed the Randy Orton vs. Shane McMahon fued too.

[JKTube]

Kamala's original WWE TV debut was on the July 21, 1984 episode of WWF All-Star Wrestling. He pinned Jose Luis Rivera (later one of the Conquistadors) in 1:33 with two splashes. This Piper's Pit was from the August 25, 1984 episode of Championship Wrestling. Steve Lombardi was Kim Chee, not Friday.

[wajimya]

That Friday is awesome. Blasie can sure find them

[TehKarmaPolice]

Was this the official wwf debut of Kamala?

[Srd1126]

No, notice Piper asking about beating his stomach in matches. back then you didn't have big debuts like today for the most part. If I remember right, Kamals just "showed up" one week.

BTW: "Man Friday" is Steve Lombardi.

[AdoribleAdrian]

Lombardi? I did not know that. Thank you. Also, later played by the Honky Tonk Man at least once.

[VolumedMusicMan]

Blassie and Piper sold Kamala like he was a boogyman! LOL

[MIZIKE69]

so degrading

[robbyled]

Kamala didn't miss many meals did he...

[battlestarmarc]

great pit, blassie could be very funny.

[mr10tomidnight]

My favorite moment was when Kamala was on Tuesday Night Titans with a caged chicken.Freddie Blassie says to Lord Alfred Hayes and Vince Mcmahon"Kamala will go a magic trick for you.You want to see the chicken do a dissappearing act?"He lets the chicken go and Kamala is chasing after it with a spear.They break to a commerical and when they come back Kamala is chewing what's left of the feathers with Lord Alfred Hayes with his heads over his eyes grossed out.

[Cobra37061]

luckychucky77 just posted that Kamala clip from TNT today. It was from 08-08-1984.

[JIMMYLINE]

this is the Piper's pit that put Kamala over for me. When I first saw this, I saw Piper and FEAR in his face. He says, "will he stab me?" and acted scared--which he NEVER did for any wrestler. I thought Kamala was "legit" in a way because of it. Great memories! I can't believe its been 25 years almost.

[Irockgswift]

The best wrestling talk show segments in history. I remember wrestling superstars each week a Piper's pit from 1984-87.

[ibebetn]

I love Blassie's wardrobe. Does anybody know where you go to buy lavender Sansabelt slacks?

[alvanson]

@ibebetn the man was a class act...I love him!

[bigrigbob2010]

@ibebetn Thats why they called him the fashion plate !

[tornadotp]

CLASSIC!!!!! In Blassie's book, he talks about this interview and said how Piper really helped sell Kamala. He said if a lunatic like Piper was afraid, then Kamala really was a killer.

[FujiGeneral]

"The man is a cannibal you know. He enjoys human flesh." Classic Blassie.

[terjer01]

I like your nickname.

[FujiGeneral]

Why thank you.

[cja2k8]

LOL I love it.

[ArnoldOldSchool]

Ah Kamala's short 1984 run! Excellent!
