Retired WWE Wrestler Kamala Launches Kickstarter For Autobiography After Losing Legs To Diabetes.

Posted: Aug 20th 2014 By: Press Release

James Harris is a former WWE headliner. As ?The Ugandan Giant? Kamala, he wrestled for 30 years everywhere against Hulk Hogan and every major star of the 80s and 90s. He was one of the most terrifying and unforgettable wrestlers of all times. At 6'7, 385 pounds, this big man was known for wearing tribal face paint, white stars on his chest and a yellow moon painted on his belly. As a credit to his portrayal of this character, he was truly believed by fans to be an uncontrollable, dangerous monster. In his scariest match ever, however, he recently lost both of his legs to diabetes. Fans also never heard Kamala speak, until now...

LOCATION: Living in a small humble home in Mississippi, the former world wrestling superstar has, become mostly a prisoner in his own home, but remained active building furniture from his wheelchair. Now, he is releasing Kamala Speakswith help from ghostwriter, Kenny Casanova of Albany, NY.

BOOK INFORMATION: The book?s Kickstarter campaign aims to do two things: 1) Print A High Quality Book to offer wrestling fans a highly-awaited autobiography from a wrestler who never spoke in the ring, and 2) Raise Funds for a man who can no longer work by providing a product fans would really want.

WHAT?S IN THE BOOK? It's an easy-to-read 350 pages paperback, with 125 pictures (B&W and color), and 20 plus pages penned by other wrestlers. Rather than to have to choose which of the many forewords submitted for book, we decided to print them all; Jim Ross, Mick Foley, ICP's Violent J, Jerry Jarrett, Bill Watts, Chavo Guerrero & Koko B Ware. The rest is a humor-filled, behind-the-scenes ?tell-all? story of survival - a look at how James Harris overcame obstacles in and out of the ring like dealing with the murders of family members, bouts with racism, and losing his legs to diabetes.

PRINTING INFO: The book will be self-published to help create more revenue for Kamala. This is actually good because this means nobody is telling James Harris what he can or cannot say. It?s projected release date is the Fall of 2014, probably October.
