Cool.
One more run as Papa Shango would be epic.

I'm all for the Godfather returning to the WWE. Always enjoyed his character and his ring work is fine for what he needs to do.

Anybody seen how in or out of shape he is lately? He was never really the reflection of perfection physique-wise, but then again if he's motivated to come back to the big time he's probably been hitting the gym pretty hard.

He didn't look too bad at this years Rumble. If he ever returned I would mark out either way.

The Godfather returning = the best way to utilize the non used divas.
Bad idea? lol.

He missed his best shot when TNA first hired Hogan and Bischoff and brought in anybody who existed during the Monday Night Wars.

Anybody seen how in or out of shape he is lately? I present you: TODD and some other guy.  Hey, I don't think I've ever seen Charles Wright decked out as Papa Shango since the gimmick was dropped. He clearly did it just for Todd. |

In those NXT practice videos Oliver Grey seemed to be doing a James Bond gimmick. Bring back Papa Shango and reinact Live and Let Die.

I want him to combine the gimmicks and be the Godpapa, who uses voodoo to supplement his pimping and punish those who would abuse his ladies.
Bonus points if someone finds a way to work MMA or black pride in there.

The Godfather was pretty damn risque even during the Attitude Era. If he's making an appearance in the WWE (say, on another Old School Raw or the Royal Rumble), I think we're more likely to see Shango or, hell, even Kama.

The Godfather character was brought back in this year's Rumble, albeit very briefly. Don't think they'd bring that incarnation back full time, but another one-off appearance wouldn't surprise me. |

Since he's been doing the Papa Shango gimmick at wrestling conventions of late, he absolutely needs to come back in that incarnation.

If he's making an appearance in the WWE (say, on another Old School Raw or the Royal Rumble), I think we're more likely to see Shango or, hell, even Kama. There was the Rumble appearance, but even something more often, I think you could get away with it. Could, like they did in WWE 13 (though I swiftly corrected this) and for his Rumble appearance drop the, "HOOOOOOO TRAIN!" part of his theme, go with some more technical names for his moves, and just have the ladies be unexplained escorts, maybe with him if he does try to pimp them out talking them up more as being fun to party with or something. Still be sort of risque, but PG still lets you get away with some things and there are ways you could keep the gimmick but sort of make it something kids couldn't pick up on. Though I'd probably prefer Shango, just because wrestling needs more stuff like that and I don't have much exposure to that incarnation of him. Related, I keep hoping for a Boogeyman return. |

Hell, why not combine all three of his gimmicks. "The Godfather" Kama Shango.
