How is it picking up girls from a strip club – a story by The Godfather?

The Godfather revealed that during his time in the WWE, Vince McMahon asked Charles whether he could get some women for the role. He said, “Vince says to me, ‘Charles, you think you can go get some girls? I’m like, ‘Vince, are you joking? You know, me and Taker are in strip clubs every night.

We know every strip club; we know every girl.’ So I grab The Undertaker, you know, I grab Mark (The Undertaker), and we go down to a strip club.” [h/t Wrestlinginc.com]

Wright mentioned that getting the girls from a strip club was done during the daytime. ‘The Phenom’ Undertaker would join Papa Shango, aka The Godfather, in this activity. WWE used to sign the girls and pay them for their time in The Godfather gimmick’s wrestling business.

Charles Wright then recollected a memory when he was walking through an airport and people were already fans of the act. He added, “I swear to you, I went from walking through an airport where maybe some people will notice you, to the next day people are like, ‘Godfather, where’s the h**s?”

The Godfather stated that the gimmick of bringing in the girls inside the professional wrestling was insane; the fans absolutely loved it. During that time, the showcase with the girls became popular.

Godfather’s wife came up with the main gimmick!

Charles Wright was asked about his main Godfather gimmick. He said it was his wife’s idea to develop The Godfather gimmick. He added, “It wasn’t that I should be a p*mp, she was more like, ‘if you could let people see what you are really like and you’re not a voodoo man, you’re not an Ultimate fighter, you’re not a Nation member, but just be who you are.’” [h/t wrestlingnews.co]
