(Tonga
Kid is pictured in the middle with the "I want Piper" shirt).
This 350 pound Californian has had a very
busy career in Pro Wrestling and even the movies. Born in California, this
100% pure Samoan was trained from an early age by Afa and Sika. In the
early 1980s, the Tonga Kid began his career with an impressive streak of
wins. After awhile, the Tonga Kid teamed up with his brother Fatu to form
the Islanders (the original Islanders were Afa & Sika before they evolved
into their true selves- the Wild Samoans). After teaming for awhile with
his brother Fatu, Tonga found himself knee deep in a violent and vicious
feud with "Rowdy" Roddy Piper which was publicized on the cover of
wrestling magazines all around the world. From there, Tonga would from
time to time team up with international sensation Samu (his cousin) and
Fatu as a six man tag team version of the Samoan Swat Team (SST). It was
around this time that Tonga made his motion picture debut in the movie
Body Slam along with his uncles Afa and Sika. Today the Tonga Kid
continues to wreak havoc on the West Coast and will continue to do so for
a long, long time.
