A year later, while traveling between Oregon and the Hawaiian Islands, King Curtis would capture the NWA Pacific Northwest Heavyweight Title on September 5, 1963,[6] In Australia, King Curtis was a part of the face tag team known as the People's Army with Mark Lewin and Spiros Arion.[7] His first sojourns to Australia were in the 1964–1965 season, where he was a Heel. He was teamed with Skull Murphy. King Curtis initially wrestled as Curtis Iaukea in his first run in Australia. The King Curtis tag was the one that stuck as he feuded against Mark Lewin. After becoming a fan favorite in the seventies, King Curtis feuded against Tiger Jeet Singh and the Tojo brothers from Japan." King Curtis was also a member of an alliance known as "The People's Army." Management Edit After retiring in the mid-1980s, he turned to managing. In ICW, known as King Curtis, he managed Kevin Sullivan and Mark Lewin, taking on the gimmick of a crazed cult leader. His faction feuded with Joe Savoldi and Austin Idol. In the 80's, he also appeared with Sullivan in Championship Wrestling from Florida as "The Chairman of the Board". Curtis Iaukea re-appeared briefly in the WWF promotion as The Wizard, a manager and mouthpiece for Kamala. The Wizard claimed to be in communion with the spirit of the late original Grand Wizard. He later teamed Kamala with Sika before selling the pair to Mr Fuji. He also appeared briefly in WCW as 'The Master' of the Dungeon of Doom stable in the mid-1990s, reuniting with both Kamala and Sullivan (who, as Dungeon leader, would address Iaukea as "my father") His role in the Dungeon was to conjure up new Dungeon members for Sullivan's war with Hulk Hogan.Championship (3 times) - with Buddy Austin (1) and Mark Lewin (2) World Brass Knuckles Championship[9] World Wide Wrestling Federation WWWF World Tag Team Championship (1 time) with Baron Mikel Scicluna Wrestling Observer Newsletter Wrestling Observer Newsletter Hall of Fame (Class of 2011)[10]
