Piper's Pit with the "Tonga Kid" (actually Samu)

[radentsgo89]

Tonga kid is Rikishi and Umaga's brother

[dannyboywwe]

WOW! The description of the video is wrong.I never knew this. This is not The Tonga Kid aka Tama of the Islanders. Its Samu of th e Headshrinkers. He may have used the nickname Tonga Kid on house shows. I never knew he had a stinf in the WWE in the 1980s. Classic footage.

[jgfear]

Well I guess the letter was from Sim Snuka lol man Piper was a great heel

[arpegio88]

...Orton's former gimmick on the back of Roddy's shirt @ 2:52...maybe hmm?

[dsd310580]

The Tonga Kid was in WWF at that time. He would later go on to be Tama of The Islanders.

[ckendall67]

This is the 1st time I actually ever heard Samula speak!! :-O

[dsd310580]

@ckendall67 He later returned to WWF simply as Samu of The Headshrinkers.

[AMQ82]

Roddy Piper the original Legend Killer!!!

[ItsFrankieBoy]

Probably the worst Piper's Pit segment in history. But its not Piper's fault, The Samula guy had ZERO mic skills.

[TheBestEVER4LIFE]

oh shit roddy piper is the original legend killer...

[epajrgolf]

if piper was interviewing Haku the conversation would be over just as quick as it started.

[mitsubishidiamante]

he used to play football on Balboa H.S

[TheMashwatcher585]

Piper: we got a killer whale with us lol

[UltimateSenshi]

Tonga Kid, isnt samu, he also wrestled as Sam Fatu, he was in the film Body Slam with Rowdy Roddy Piper

[cdd7012]

Tonga Kid is not Samu

[sjmmrcrdd]

Piper was and is the best man

[cobaltbovine]

Piper is a Hart cousin...........

[Srd1126]

This never went anywhere. The Tonga Kid was set up as Snuka's cousin then they put this out there as another cousin of his. The gimmick seems to have had run course for the time.

[reggie46404]

Is that Rikishi?

[blackshogun77]

@reggie46404 yeah it was rakishi in this clip. to reinevnt himself he put ona little weight. He has since took all that weight off.

[brat4thawln]

@reggie46404 Nope it is his cousin Samu from the Samoan Swat Team and later became 1 tag team with Rakishi called the Head Shrinkers. His cousin took over the Tonga Kid Gimmick when Rakishi brother "Sam" was fired. Sam looks dead on like Rakishi.

[brat4thawln]

@blackshogun77 Your dead wrong. That is Samula from the Samoan Swat Team. Samula is Rakishi tag team partner from the Head Shrinker. The original actor for the Tonga kid gimmick was Rakishi younger brother Samuelu Fatu. Samuelu was fired from the wwf and then Samula who is in this video is AFA son. FYI Solofa Fatu aka Rakishi Samuelu Fatu aka The Tonga Kid and Eddie Fatu aka Umaga are all blood brothers. How I know this? Well those are my uncles.

[gregnice25]

@brat4thawln so is THE ROCK & YOKOZUNA....they're related to them too...cousins i assume...

[brat4thawln]

@gregnice25 Yes they are cousin. They are the Anoai Family.

[delideliver]

@brat4thawln also,Samoan 2 (Sika) is the father of the Tonga Kid,I learned this many years ago when a policeman friend of my cousin,arrested Sika for being drunk in public,the Tonga Kid came to bail him out

[brat4thawln]

@gregnice25 Sorry for the late ass reply. The Rock and Yoko are from the Anoai side. I'm from the Fatu's.

[mizznesian]

the tonga kid wasnt even tongan he was samoan....so dumb

[Debaser11]

@mizznesian

So? Piper is not really from Scotland. I'm not even sure if he's

Scottish. Get over it.

[wwebatmanmaniac]

@Debaser11 he's of scottish heritage, from canada.

[brat4thawln]

@mizznesian It was use because at the time they had 4 islanders. The barbarian=Tongan Haku=Tongan Snuka=Fijian Big Sam Fatu=Samoan. The reason for that name is because they wanted another islander tag team. So they threw Haku and Big Sam together. Out of respect for Haku Sam took the name the Tonga Kid and ran with it.

[TheMashwatcher585]

we got a killer with us lol

[qaenos]

That's not the Tonga Kid. It's Samula, the Wild Samoan.

[spiro356]

@qaenos True. That is why I added the deleted intro of the Pit

[oldschoolbx1970]

@qaenos THe son of Wild Samoan Afa.

[LordZacknafien]

@qaenos actualy that is the Tonga Kid He Just changed His name to The Wild Samoan after a few years when he got a little older.
