New Japan is an incredible wrestling company. One of the best things about them is the freedom they give their wrestlers. Freedom of expression is greatly encouraged in New Japan. Some of the people who came from New Japan to WWE have expressed surprise about how even the entrances are tightly arranged in WWE.
This would never fly in WWE because Vince McMahon wouldn’t want to tip his hat to another wrestling company. But in New Japan, it is nothing new to acknowledge other companies or wrestlers who aren’t under the NJPW banner.
Tama Tonga is a member of The Bullet Club. He’s a beast too. It’s a real surprise William Regal and Triple H haven’t tried to snatch him up yet. The 34-year-old Tongan wrestler has years ahead of him and incredible charisma. He usually dawns facepaint and ties his beard kind of like Captain Lou Albano did back in the day (only he hasn’t worn safety pins with rubber bands through his cheeks…yet).
But Tama Tonga strayed from his usual look to dress in a style that is quite familiar. It’s pretty genius ring gear too because he pulls off the mashup of Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins quite well. Who knows if he’s trying to say anything with this look, but it’s still great, to say the least. The Bullet Club does it again.

Most people remember Andre The Giant as a slow-moving, colossal man. But in his earlier career, he was quite agile for a man his size. It might not seem like a big deal that Andre was able to execute a tombstone piledriver, but you try being his size and just dropping to your knees.
Andre The Giant was over seven-feet-tall and 400 lbs. But in his younger days, he wrestled around the world against men like Dusty Rhodes, The Iron Sheik, Antonio Inoki and other legends of pro wrestling possessing surprising agility. This photo might not be new, but it’s nothing less than extraordinary.
