Kamala was a feared heel back in the day. He went toe to toe with top stars such as Hulk Hogan and The Undertaker. Dory Funk Sr., the father of legendary stars Dory Funk Jr. and Terry Funk, began wrestling after serving in the United States Navy during World War II. Unfortunately, he passed away in 1973 at the age of 54.

The third inductee of the Legacy Wing of the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2025, Ivan Koloff, is well known for ending Bruno’s legendary seven-year WWE World Heavyweight Championship reign at Madison Square Garden in 1971. The Russian Bear died in 2017 from liver cancer.
