* ScrewedByTheNetwork: In hindsight, it's pretty clear that, for one reason or another, WWE was never really going to seriously push Funk/Scorpio. Being TheStoner in RealLife probably didn't help. If that was the reason, then it was way [[{{Hypocrite}} hypocritical]] for them to push the Godfather, who ALWAYS ended his pre-match spiel with "I want ya' to roll a fatty for this pimp daddy, light that blunt/stinky green/hydro up and say 'PIMPING AIN'T EASY!'". However, unlike Scorpio, who was coming in from Wrestling/{{ECW}} and worked an aerial style that was not common to WWE at the time[[note]]he certainly would have fit in with guys such as [[Wrestling/MattHardy the]] [[Wrestling/JeffHardy Hardyz]], Wrestling/{{Edge}}[=/=]Wrestling/{{Christian}}, Wrestling/KofiKingston, Wrestling/ReyMysterioJr, and Wrestling/EvanBourne[[/note]], Charles "The Godfather" Wright was a company man who had been there on-and-off through three different gimmicks (Papa Shango, Kama "The Supreme Fighting Machine" and Kama Mustafa of the Nation of Domination) starting in 1992 and worked a generic power wrestler style that fit in better with WWE. Furthermore, Funk/Scorpio was not just a marijuana user, but also had a serious crack issue at the time, which the man himself admitted didn't help matters.
