He debuted in 1978 and became widely popular in 1986. He later went on to the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWE, where he went from strong mid-carder to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job_(professional_wrestling)#Jobbers. "The Birdman" came to the ring with a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue-and-yellow_macaw named Frankie, both flapping and dancing before and after his matches. Before joining the WWF, he was in several tag teams, most notably with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bobby_Eaton in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_Wrestling_Association and with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norvell_Austin (The PYT Express) in several promotions. In 1993, he lost the first https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWE_Raw match to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yokozuna_(wrestler). In 2009 he was inducted into the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWE_Hall_of_Fame. Continental Wrestling Association (1978–1986)- Ware spent his early days in the sport in the Mid-South, Georgia and other NWA territories.

It was not until late in 1980 that Ware's fortunes changed when he participated in a battle royal to crown the first ever Mid-American Television Champion. The crowd favorite was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Valiant, who Ware accidentally knocked into https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Briley and eliminated. Moments later, Koko dumped Davis to the floor and won his first title. After the match, Valiant returned to the ring and beat Ware down. Ware's feud with Valiant was quickly expanded to include the heel https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tojo_Yamamoto and Ware's ally, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Rich. When https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_Mantel returned to the CWA in early 1981 he quickly defeated Ware for the TV title making Ware's first run with the gold a short one.
