iv never seen this, im very interested though... and i really cant recall it beeing released on a wwf vid, it sounds like it may of happened late 80's, (when bundy was a main eventer) If thats not the case, i guess it may have been a random episode of superstars in the early 90's when bundy was hired by the $$$man... although, im sure undertaker put kamala in a casket before $$$mans (bundy/tatanka) group kicked off.... hmm cant remember off hand, will have to go watch a couple of vids
i only saw the yokozuna vs kamala match for the first time the other day.

I don't recall seeing a match between King Kong Bundy and Kamala. I'm not too sure they would've even wrestled against each other back then because they were both heels at the time.
Kamala didn't turn face until sometime in '93 when he had Reverend Slick as his manager and by then Bundy was long gone from the W.W.F. Then, Bundy made his return in '95 and at that point, Kamala had left the W.W.F. and I believe was in W.C.W. for a short stint.

I can confirm this match actually happened. I saw it on a insert slip advertising future and past releases in my Best of WWF Vol. 14 Coliseum Video case. It was a rare heel vs. heel match. Let me check and I'll get back to you.
EDIT: Never mind. I guess I got it mixed up with something else. I still could've sworn that I saw that on a matchlisting somewhere. Maybe I've mistaken. I'll keep looking around.

I remember hearing about these matches taking place at House Shows near the end of Bundy's WWF run in 1987. Here are the results of the House Shows where the matches took place. Credit: History of WWE.
WWF @ St. Louis, MO - Kiel Auditorium - February 28, 1987 (3,800) The Assassin (Randy Culley) pinned Lanny Poffo Sivi Afi pinned Moondog Spot Paul Roma pinned the Brooklyn Brawler Jim Duggan pinned Iron Mike Sharpe Bob Orton Jr. pinned Dick Slater Kamala pinned King Kong Bundy after the 5-minute mark Billy Jack Haynes fought Hercules to a double count-out Roddy Piper, Ricky Steamboat, & the Junkyard Dog defeated WWF IC Champion Randy Savage, King Harley Race, & Adrian Adonis in an elimination match; JYD and Adonis fought to a double count-out; Race pinned Steamboat; Piper pinned Race; Piper pinned Savage
WWF @ San Francisco, CA - Cow Palace - March 17, 1987 Blackjack Mulligan defeated the Iron Sheik Paul Roma defeated Frenchy Martin Nick Kiniski defeated Steve Lombardi Bob Orton Jr. defeated Raymond Rougeau Jacques Rougeau fought Don Muraco to a draw Kamala fought King Kong Bundy to a double count-out Nikolai Volkoff defeated Outback Jack WWF IC Champion Randy Savage, Hercules, & Butch Reed defeated Ricky Steamboat, Tito Santana, & Billy Jack Haynes
WWF @ Sacramento, CA - Arco Arena - March 20, 1987 (11,111; sell out) Paul Roma defeated Steve Lombardi The Iron Sheik defeated Nick Kiniski Outback Jack defeated Frenchy Martin Raymond Rougeau defeated Bob Orton Jr. Don Muraco fought Jacques Rougeau to a draw Blackjack Mulligan defeated Nikolai Volkoff via disqualification King Kong Bundy fought Kamala to a double count-out Ricky Steamboat, Tito Santana & Blackjack Mulligan defeated WWF IC Champion Randy Savage, Adrian Adonis & Butch Reed in an elimination match; Roddy Piper was to have been on Steamboat's team but did not appear
This House Show fued between the two took place right around the time of Wrestlemania III which makes me ask another question...
Why was Kamala left off the Wrestlemania III card?
