10 WWE Superstars who got over despite not winning much

#7 The Godfather

Pimpin' ain't easy!

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

Charles Wright is someone who has worked under multiple monikers throughout his career. However, none were as adored by the fans as much as The Godfather. Following his run with The Nation of Domination as Kama Mustafa, Wright underwent a character repackaging and was reintroduced as The Godfather.

Fans immediately fell in love with the fun-loving persona and his ever-expanding lineup of beautiful ladies, more commonly known as the "hoe train."

While fans loved the gimmick, that didn't necessarily translate into a big pile of wins for The Godfather. While winning only 44% of his Raw matches, The Godfather lost 21 of the 32 pay-per-view matches he competed in. Regardless of his wins and losses, the gimmick was good enough to land him a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame, where he was inducted in the class of 2016.

Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
