I have tried for ages to get footage of Papa Shango, namely his stuff with the Warrior and the vignettes they did to introduce him. It's a bit of nostalgia that I'm after but so far I've come up empty.
Can anyone point me in the direction of what I'm looking for?

Im sure Ive seen some of that footage around somewhere on DVD's I think. I did have a WWF videotape from 1992 where theres a Bodybag match between him and Undertaker and Im sure Warrior runs in.

The only thing I've managed to find is a crappy "Colosseum Video exclusive" match. I've no idea what video that appeared on but the banner in the background is the Superstars TV show banner.

Colosseum Video, hahaha the old days! I remember the stupid set they used on some of them. I remember it being used in 1992 The Year in Review (with Sean Mooney!) and one with Gorilla Monson. I have a tape called Wrestlings Greatest Matches featuring....Big Bossman vs Barbarian!
Hope you find your footage.

Wouldn't mind seeing that Bossman/Barbarian match. Two of my old favourites.

I have tons of the Coliseum Videos, I love them. Sean Mooney was the man! I have one called "Most Amazing Matches!" On it you get such classics as HHH vs Henry O. Godwinn, Undertaker vs Mabel in a Casket match, and not 1 but 2 Bret Hart matchs (1 vs Jerry "The King" Lawler and the other is vs Issac Yankem in a steel cage. Plus the Royal Rumble 1992 Coliseum Video has a great Hogan promo just for the video. I swear Hogan must have done some speed in his day because this was a tweaked out Promo.
Ohhh and I want to see that footage of Warrior vs Shango too. That was great, where his head started to sweat that black oil. Made me laugh my ass off when I saw it. I will admit though, I loved the whole story line. It sits right next to the Warrior/Roberts angle too. Good luck.

ahh the classic colisum video udget tapes i pick from walmart for like $7. I had a bunch of them then pawned some off. I kept the Sunny one, the Bret Hart was ok not the greatest, some matches were featured twiced in that series tapes. Sorta like the early colisuim videoes vol. 1-10 where they must have put that ricky steamboat vs Cowboy Bob orten match like 4 times. It was still a great match though.

Bossman v barbarian is the second match at Royal Rumble 1991 . . . and for two big guys it is fairly good . . . compared to todays hoss matches
