5 Controversial Superstars in the WWE Hall of Fame

#2 The Godfather

Light up a fatty for this pimp daddy!

Well, here we go again with yet another inductee that was obviously selected due to the popularity of the gimmick.

The Godfather was definitely an entertaining persona as he would strut to the ring, flanked by his “hoes,” which were typically dancers recruited from local strip clubs. As far as his in-ring ability, The Godfather is a highly experienced wrestler, with plenty of experience under a plethora of gimmicks. But there was not much to write home about as far as his career as a whole. Sure, he was fun to watch as he made his entrance. But beyond that, there was nothing more to it.

Sure, Charles Wright himself has been the man behind multiple gimmicks, and he’s worked several gimmicks. But, we are talking about the Godfather specifically, and when you consider that character alone, is he truly Hall of Fame material?
