August 25, 201114 yr comment_5480738 I loved Papa Shango. I thought Kama was decent. I thought the GodFather was rather embarrassing (a face pimp was the nadir of the Russo era in WWF). I thought the GoodFather had zero reedeeming value.
August 28, 201213 yr comment_5513606 I wish we got a bit more from Sid/Warrior but I guess you can slide Shango into the spot instead. If I was like 5 years old when he came around I probably would have been terrified of him.
August 28, 201213 yr comment_5513609 This is funny, I can see Shango scaring kids though. Oh he did indeed. Especially at house shows.
July 21, 201312 yr comment_5552733 Papa Shango burns a picture of the Ultimate Warrior and threatens his demise. Why is he doing vignettes after debuting?? Presumably damage control over Sid's walkout. I know for a fact that the Shango gimmick in general and the puke angle specifically were the final straw(s) for a LOT of longtime fans, who gave up on the WWF. I was always fascinated by Voodoo as a child so I got a kick out of the gimmick, but this is SUCH a step down even from Sid as a main event heel.
August 12, 201312 yr comment_5555959 I think I've said it before, but I'll repeat it here. Papa Shango is the biggest rip of of Baron Samedi from Live and Let Die. It makes me think that Vince caught the film on TV one night and decided to use the gimmick.
January 31, 20169 yr comment_5724653 Shango looks more to me like the kind of voodoo villain that Batman would have opposed back in the sixties, complete with bad dialogue. I could see him scaring very little kids for about as long as it took their parents to stop laughing and explain things to them. I don't know what else Vince could have done once Sid walked out, but there had to be a better idea than this somewhere. There simply had to be.
