The Godfather On The Undertaker: I’ve Wrestled That Man Under Five Or Six Different Gimmicks, I Beat Him One Time In A Handicap Match

The Godfather speaks on his losses against The Undertaker.

Both wrestlers have known each other for a long time. In fact, The Undertaker was a major reason behind WWE signing The Godfather back in 1991.

Speaking on Rewind Recap Relive, The Godfather discussed his friendship with The Deadman.

“I met him in 1987. Right away, we became really good friends, and we’ve been friends ever since.”

The Godfather then talked about his win/loss record against him, noting that he only managed to defeat The Phenom one time in a handicap match.

“I don’t have a good record against The Undertaker. There are a lot of characters. But I tell people I’ve been put in caskets as Papa Shango [and] Kama. I’ve been beaten up as Godfather [and] Kama Mustafa. I’ve wrestled that man under five or six different gimmicks, and I beat him one time in a handicap match.”

As for how this match came to be, The Godfather said:

“I came back to be Papa Shango. They made me Kama Mustafa. Just as soon as I get to TV, they’re like, ‘Hey, change of plans.’ Me and Ron Simmons had a match. That’s the first time I met Ron Simmons, who’s a great friend of mine now. They say, ‘You and Ron Simmons are going to wrestle Undertaker, and you’re going to go over with a finish.’ I’m like, ‘What?’ That’s how that happened.”

Elsewhere in the interview, The Godfather said he never had to call WWE for a comeback. Fans can read more about it here.
