The oldest son of Afa, Samu started in Pro
Wrestling at the age of 14. By the time he was 17 he was in the World Wrestling
Federation causing havoc. Then,
Samu went to Canada for several years where he gained great experience and was
the perennial Canadian Heavyweight Champion main-eventing packed shows through
out the country. While in Canada, the Great Samu began working in New Japan Pro
Wrestling where he, along with the likes of Andre the Giant and Hulk Hogan main-evented
many shows. Samu simply destroyed all comers in NJPW (where he eventually teamed
up and won gold with YOKOZUNA) and left his mark on the Japanese company. After
his successful run in Canada, Samu decided to team up with his younger cousin
Fatu and formed the Samoan Swat Team (SST). The duo was unstoppable as the team
ripped apart World Class Championship Wrestling (WCCW out of Texas). The team
held the WCCW tag team and 6-man championship countless times. From there, the
duo invaded the WWE where they took the WWE gold twice! The duo followed in
their fathers' footsteps and continued the Samoan family's dominance from 1992
to 1995! From there, Samu and Fatu parted ways with Fatu staying on with the WWE
and Samu seeking tougher challenges in the wrestling world. So, Samu made
several international appearances wrestling many greats from all around. In
addition to the international tour, Samu began wrecking wrestlers on the
independent scene. Today, Samu continues to dominate the wrestling world with
his awesome Samoan Drop, Samu Kick, and countless other maneuvers. Recently,
Samu did a music video with Cappadonna of the WU-TANG CLAN called "RUN". From
time to time he will help train the students at the Wild Samoan Training Center
teaching them the finer points of the business and holds. Additionally, the
"Great One" wrestles with World X-TREME Wrestling taking it to the X-TREME on a
regular basis.
