Kamala deserved so much more than what he ended up with in his later years. Seems like he just had one tough break after another. But throughout it all, he still remained humble, grateful, and kind.
Wrestlers like KAMALA made the WWE what it is today. VINCE OWES SO MUCH TO HIM🤔
RIP Kamala and Paul Bearer
He was such a great performer and a great guy in real life. Hard working truck driver and family man.
I’ve heard stories on how he ate a lot lot… but my favorite is when he carried a cylinder to a dump truck inside Truck Pro to be rebuilt.
Nobody "sold" the Undertaker like Kamala did...he made it look very believable that he was afraid of the guy. RIP Mr. Harris.
I heard kamala only made $13,000 from Summerslam '92
@@isaiahwinbrone wow smh
@@isaiahwinbrone It kinda makes you sick to think about it...he deserved SO much more.
True but I think Yoko did a pretty good job as well especially during the survivor series match of team usa vs foreign fanatics
True Story....
It’s amazing to me how Kamala was absolutely terrifying watching him as a child to find out years later he is a gentle giant with the softest of all voices ... GOD BLESS James Kamala Harris !!!
I think he was a really nice guy...too bad his life was so hard the last few years. RIP Mr. Harris.
Legit. When he came out I think he was the only guy I truly define as terrifying, he made you believe he was Kamala
WhenI heard his music I knew what was coming, he was awesome. RIP James Kamala Harris.
Kamala Harris' dad must have been a fan. That's just too much of a coincidence.
@@braddockakalatis2 Yeah, I know she was close to the age of banging her boss at the time. I was making a joke.
Wonderful person. Thank you and RIP, Mr. Harris.
I wish I could’ve met him. He terrified me as a child, but he seems like such a gentle soul.
Hes the kinda guy ya wanna be neighbors with. RIP
I wished he was mine.
Underated wrestler. He is one of my favorites. R.I.P big man Kamala 😢
RIP to the legendary Ugandan Giant kamala!
I can't see undertaker earning 500.000 back then in 1992 for one match. Maybe he just saw 50.000
Yes. No way in fucking hell did Undertaker make anything close to 500K for that night. It was closer to 50K as you said.
On a card featuring bret, warrior, macho, Shawn Michaels none of them baby's complained about the 500k at summer slam. Yeah, he misread the book. Kamala had started he got 10k and then 13k..
@@Run187 They would've been at a loss if they had been distributing that kind of money to all their stars. LOL
I find it hard to believe that a book with that sensitive of information would have been just laying around open in a locker room.
As a man that's been In the looker rooms, that does happen
Kamala was a great attraction can't believe in his hay day he would get the beat down by Vince ! Rest in peace Kamala ! Always remember you dude !
first time i'm watching this, if this was only audio i'd never accept that was KAMALA, because he had such a trrifying image in my mind 😱👹
I remember when that came out it made a Nailz fan because Vince finally got what he deserved from a wrestler with guts enough to do it! Especially after doing so many wrestlers wrong 👍🙂👍👍👍
Man, Kamala is actually a swell guy in real. R.I.P. you will be missed.
Can you imagine being invited to Kamala's house for a backyard BBQ and a keg of beer? I can dream can't I? 🍻🍔🥓🍖
He said taker was a sweet heart!
What an awesome guy, I remember as a little kid just hating on this guy while he was wrestling cause he was such a heel. It just shows how well he did his job, it takes a great performer to really make you believe they are that "guy". RIP Kamala, you were a class act.
Vince screwed more talent than Ron Jeremy.
😂🤣
@n/a Vince gave both Hulk and Warrior 1 mil each for their 1990 Wrestlemania match so 500k for Taker in 1992 isn't that far fetched.
Vince paid him 13k for a 3 minute match with no bumps and the mtch was the drizzling...
The way he sold Taker rising after their match at Summerslam 92 was superb.
Hell naw, Kamala got 13,000 and Taker got 1,000,000. I would've pulled an Ultimate Warrior. He would've had to pay me 500,000 or I wouldn't come on. Kamala was too nice. RIP.
He said it was a half a million, 500,000. But still it is a big big difference compared to 13,000.
Lol @ pull an Ultimate Warrior lmfao!!
I defanitly would've pulled a ultimate warrior that night.
@@mattguy2998 Kamala’s star power was nothing compared to the Warrior. Vince would have found Undertaker another opponent lol
Loving this one brother thank's for sharing very important information giving blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💪💪💪
Rip kamala and Paul bearer legends gone
I think Undertaker got $50,000 not $500,000. Kamala should have gotten more than $13,000.
Yeah there's no way Undertaker was paid half a mil for one match in '91. He must've misread it as 50,000 which would have been a lot more reasonable.
will be missed watch in Memphis
What a nice guy Kamala was, geez it almost seems like two different people. Amazing, what a talent. As a kid I was afraid Kamala was going to end Hulkamania, I remember the announcement of Hulk Hogan vs Kamala on a House Show in the Los Angeles Sports Arena. He was terrifying to watch, his size & strength. This was before Wrestlemania III, up to that point, King Kong Bundy was the other monster Hogan had gone against.
RIP kamala. seems like a nice guy. man Vince did him dirty. I truly hate Vince.
For the many years Vince and his company has cheated people and did them wrong, I feel he's about to finally reap what he has sown.
Kamala was a great attraction amongst a group of special scary wrestlers. He falls in the great monsters of the mat. I.e., Abdullah the Butcher, Bruiser Brody, The Great Kabuki.
Papa Shango don’t forget him. I believed that man was crazy.
@@brettjordan7287Killer Khan. Tor Kamata. George Steele. King Kong Mosca.
Maybe Kamala miss understood that book list but I dont think some wrestlers were getting paid half million in 1992
Probably missed a zero... More than likely it was 50K
Idk, but as a grown man I feel like if I saw 500000..then I saw 500000. Especially if I repeat it out of my mouth. But who knows? If that's the truth, sad and unfair af, but just like any other time..life goes on.
Kamala's (SummerSlam) Match nd Fued with Taker , is one of the underrated fueds in WWF/WWE Hystory.
That Priceless expression on Kamala's face , when Taker Rose from The Beat-Down.
Saw Kamala vs Hogan in Los Angeles when I was a kid.
Kamala I see your video all good you are a good man. Year 2022
Dude's body slam of Andre looked effortless edit: Much better than the current Kamala
if Taker got $500K then Kamala should have gotten at least 1/2 that
why? I can assume if the undertaker was paid 500K to keep him happy about past money owed to him. might not be legal or above the board, but taker was happy. kamala did get a boat load of money. and now he could be the president of the united states.
I find it very hard to believe Undertaker got 500k for summerslam '92. This was just a midcard match. Maybe 50k. At this point Taker hadn't even been in WWF for a full 2 years. Kamala may have misread it.
@@snaidnietahi4654 I would agree with you. 500k is a lot of money even for hogan or austin at their height.
@negro bsr I never said anything about Taker being a midcard talent or not at that time. He was basically thrown to the top immediately as a heel character to feud with Hogan, and Warrior. It wasn't until a few years after he turned babyface, that he truly became "top talent" in the eyes of Vince though. All i was saying is that Taker vs Kamala was a midcard feud and match. That match was like what 3 minutes, and ended by dq? Probably the shortest match on the card, very unlikely he made 500k that night. That was a ton of money for back in '92. Taker hadn't even been there a full 2 years, and wasn't in a position to demand that pay, nor have I heard that he's ever complained about that. I'm thinking it was probably around 50k, and it must've just been a mistake by Kamala.
Not calling Kamala a liar, but the combined revenue from every aspect of the show was roughly 3.7 million dollars before taxes. With all the overhead, I think a $500,000 payoff to Undertaker was a huge stretch. The PPV buy rate was also much lower than the previous year, and a huge slice of that revenue was gone before WWF touched it
Percy Pringle said Taker's payoff was more like $50000. The business was way down in 92. Main event guys like Bret Hart were making three hundred grand tops for the entire year.
God bless him
RIP Kamala
Why does the MWF put graphics all over the place on these videos? Even if you pay for the full shoot it still has their obnoxious graphics all over the place. Very strange.
it's super cheesy, like watching PBS on youtube
Kamala actually sounds like an intelligent and down to earth good man. R.I.P Kamala!
Why would that surprise you? Did you think he was dumb because he played a character on tv?
@@sluglow6357 I was not focused on thinking that way at all... just trying compliment the man (R.I.P.) he deserves it and I think he should be put in wrestling Hall Of Fame.
Leveractionjake idk why he’s not already in? Could’ve sworn he was by now
@@sluglow6357 I looked it up... he was inducted to Hall Of Fame in 2012 and wasn't aware of it.
Leveractionjake yea I could’ve sworn I saw him go in 👍🏾
These are great videos man...thanks..RIP Kamala 🙏🙏🙏😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥
People dont realise the level of injustice he went through...$13 thousand and the other wrestler in the same match got $1 million comeon man....what kind of crap is that....how do you do that to a man. Just so wrong.
There's no way Undertaker was paid $1m. Savage, Warrior, Hart & Bulldog weren't paid anywhere near that much for the double main event matches 😂😂😂
Taken advantage of more than any modern day main eventer
Kamala is a WWF/E Legend!
Cant believe everything you hear on the internet
More like 40 times more money man, that was messed up. Even if you want to give Undertaker more drawing power, he drew on the basis of he faced a threat and a believable threat. They could have paid him 100K's so undertaker makes 400K, give up 4 minutes of pay. I assumed the match I found was cut, it was under 12 minutes so I gave them 20 minutes. That is evil Vince, probably racist lol
RIP
Vince is finally getting what he deserves.
Come on guys..save your fucking money.There is no reason for this man to have gone through what he did at the end of his life
Chances of Taker getting half a million for a mid card match in 1992 is very low
Yea know way he got that paycheck in 92 for 1 match.
His theme was actually pretty catchy haha
RIP Mr. Harris.
RIP Kamala. Imagine if Kamala won a belt. He would have used that gimmick so well with it.
Kamala, Andre and King Kong Bundy always freaked me out as a kid
King Kong Bunny freaked many out at the Drive Throughs ...500 pounder ordering $100 worth of Combos in a beat up civic
No way taker was making that kind of money in 92.
Seriously they ripped him off!! WTF! 😡😡🤬 @wwe
"I don't wanna do bad math" then proceeds to say 13,000 is 1/20th of a million. More like 1/75th
$13k vs $500k. Thats 13k time like 40. dude in the video missed it by double. he said 20 or 25 times, but its more like 40 times more
Hey guy you evah leave Bawstin with that accent? Gawd it's wicked thick
No way Taker made half a million for that match. Business was down and despite a successful event, I doubt Warrior / Savage / Bret or Davey was getting anywhere close to that. I could imagine Taker getting 50k tho. That seems more realistic.
Craig, believe you're spot on based upon all of the different individuals we've spoken to over the years (this Kamala shot was from 2005). Bret is about as up front as they come, he said he got $55k and was in what the fans in the UK would have looked at in the main event. Would place a wager Kamala misread whatever paperwork he saw and it was $50k UT -vs- the $13k he received. Can make arguments either way about how right or wrong that was.
He should be upset but looking back, 13k in the 90s for 1 night isnt bad. So it is what it is. 13k for 1 night isnt bad at all. They got pro boxers that have gotten 5k for 1 night. Yet this man got 13 k and is bitching.
Excuse you? Obviously, you don't know how the business actually works.
I see why Kamala was always getting screwed McMahon was just taking advantage of his humbleness Kamala was to nice
Someone mentioned that the most Kamala made from any WE match was $700.
$500,000 vs $13,000? Vince screwed Kamala. Shame on you.
I find that 550k figure very hard to believe. Bret Hart wrote that he got $55k for his match with British Bulldog, and that was the last match on the card. So for Taker to get half a million is a bit iffy IMO. Regardless of the amount though, I can imagine McMahon paying Taker much more than Kamala. Even when Kamala had been in the WWF longer than Taker.
The host sounds like Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting
Dude is from Boss tin
@@darylchase7595 Wicked!
This is the real Kamala Harris
They should have been paid the same amount. One can not do the job without the other. You should get the same amount for the dance especially since both are marquette names and if you take the L your pay should be the same or more.
Always get a lawyer
Alot of the black wrestlers except New jack. Seem very grounded and talk well of a business we here is racist. But whats the gun thing? Kamala had a gun against Andre, and stevie Ray was packing heat against someone i forgot who. But you'd think guns in a anger fueled room would be a really bad idea.
Man... they should have his teeth done at least with all the money he made for them. Screw Vince
How did this guy wrestle barefoot
And now hes running for Vice President!! Good for him
The original Kamala Harris! (Real name James Arthur Harris)
And better, too!
I'm sadden on this interview of the paid,of what the
Under taker made then Kamala,truly not far,at all.Thats Vincent Kennedy
McMahon way of business...
He's wrong. Bret said he got paid $50,000 for this PPV. That is more normal for paydays then anyway.
A lot of fans & gamers would probably like to play a newer WWE video game with Nailz in it? But the WWE would probably never add or include him in a video game now or ever after that 1992 incident 🤔?
What a sweet man.
Such a nice guy. They screwed him like they screwed Warrior
The WWF or WWE now only made roughly around 3.5 million in revenue for Summer Slam 92. There is no way Undertaker is making 500,000 on that day, there where other big draws like the Ultimate Warrior, Macho Man Randy Savage, Brett Hart. Just not enough money to pay one wrestler. Kamala even admits that he only confronted Vince about his own take home pay and did not mention the 500,000. So he never received confirmation other than what he says he saw in a book left in a locker room.
Lmao so we suppose to believe you over him? You ain’t never worked for wwe at no point in yo life, on here acting like you was the wwe accountant in 92 🤣

"I don't speak any English." Kamala 1984, blooper.
The better looking of the Kampala’s.
Why do I love this man? Seems like a super nice dude.
Also, why did you have Daniel Bryan on your channel? He's the most overrated wrestler in the history of the business. I thought Spike Dudley had more talent and took much better bumps.
RIP Kamala, Paul Bearer and Don Mirade
Man, why did they take this Kamala Harris and not the other one?
RIP Kamala Harris
Not right that Mark got that much money. And Jim didn't get even half that. Whose playing the "race card" in that match Vinny...(g)
So sad 😢
$13k for one night of work? not bad!
💔
Maybe 50k > 13k which is still unfair but 500k > 13k I can’t buy it. Not saying the big man is lying but it’s not coherent.
With what other top guys received for the event that night, it almost has to be $50k.
Kamala talking shit, no way Undertaker got half a million pay off for that.
Sure Kamala wasn't the biggest draw but he was one of them...he deserved at least 30 k for that one
I doubt Undertaker got paid a half million
Wow
What is classed as a shoot ? Sounds to me this is a guy talking positively about his friend 🤔
'Real' as opposed to kafabe: 'fake.' A 'burial' is always negative.
13,000 vs 500,000 = 20x more....yikes
The reality of it is The Undertaker is the draw. No one is buying a PPV because Kamala is on the ticket. Sorry, they just aren't. They are buying because Undertaker is on the ticket. Vince may not be "fair" in terms of splitting revenues equally among the players, but he does know who pays his bills. There are plenty of other people out there that would jump at the chance to make 13k in 1992 in a 8 minute match.
13k is bullshit for what he did regardless. If he said 20-25k I would have understood, but 13? No.
pretty sad Vince shafted him like that !
Why did Joe Biden pick him for his running mate?
He got paid 1% of what Taker took home
You are great with math.
Vince payed who he wanted to pay he wasn't fair to alot of them wrestlers.
I get what Kamala was saying here but....cry when you got 13000 for working a match that lasted 3 and a half minutes? That almost 4000 grand a minute.
WHAT!!!!!!!....SHaME ON VINCE...THAT WAS A GOOD CHARACTER...GREED IS A TERRIBLE THING....PAY THE PROPLE THAT PERFORMED FOR YOU...
