If I remember correctly he sued WCW for discrimination or some shit like that. Never did hear what came of it though.

From Wikipedia:
After being released by WCW in November (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/November) 1999 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999) (Bischoff was by then no longer with the company), Onoo and a number of African American (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_American) wrestlers launched racial discrimination (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism) lawsuits (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawsuit) against WCW in February 2000 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/February_2000). Onoo claimed that he had been given a disrespectful gimmick and that his final salary—$ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_dollar)160,000—was only half of the average pay for a wrestler at that time.
Onoo began working on the independent circuit (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_circuit), and was associated with the short-lived WrestleXpress (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WrestleXpress), and Xtreme Wrestling Federation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xtreme_Wrestling_Federation).

Doesn't actually say what the outcome of the case was. :-\
