What a brilliaint choice!

 

Just like saying things in Spanish makes stuff sound a million times better than it actually is, King Curtis bringing in The Yeti made it sound like it was a bigger deal than it actually was.

 

 

It's the new Grand Wizard, mother fuckers.  The Kamala run at the title with Ieukea as manager was made of pure win and genius.

The best is that he basically cut the same Kamala promo 10 years later

I love the fact that Ieukea takes geographical liberties with Kamala in the promos I posted, knowing that no one watching the promo will figure it out. 

 

Kilamanjaro is a word that you can speak with beautiful articulation but the highest peak in Africa is not in Ugandan territory.

You gotta love that Curtis was providing close caption for the hearing impaired like Garret Morris used to.  Meltzer's story about him blading himself when he was running his surf rental spot in Hawaii when they were trying to evict him from his spot was about wrestling carny as you can get.

 

And having not hear his promos as the Wizard in a very long time... I always thought it was the Tooth of Sha-ka.... but now it sounds like Shao Kahn... which I think pre-dates Mortal Kombat... which makes me wonder what Shao Kahn is based on.
