The Godfather didn't see himself getting inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame.
As noted, Charles Wright recently appeared as a guest on the Midnight Hustle podcast for an in-depth interview, during which he spoke about thinking he was never going to be inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame.
Featured below is an excerpt from the interview where he touches on this topic.
“Yea, I thought because of the pimp thing that it would hold me up but I mean if you look at the body of work, people today still talk about me and the Warrior. I was part of building The Rock up to be what he is in the Nation of Domination…I was going to the gym and Mark Carrano, who is not there anymore. Mark Carrano called me and he’s like ‘hey Bear you ready for WrestleMania?’ I’m like ‘yeah man I’m ready.’ He goes ‘well who you bringing? You bringing your wife, your kids, what?’ What the f**k does it matter what I’m bringing? He goes ‘ well, we want to know.’ I go ‘why do you want to know?’ He goes ‘because Vince is putting you in the Hall Of Fame this year.’ … I go, ‘cool I never thought a pimp would get in there.’”
