Rikishi is probably most remembered today for two things - his enormous stinkface to opponents in the corner of the ring and for being the father of the Usos.

He was mainly a tag team specialist as a member of the Samoan Swat Team, the Headshrinkers and Too Cool.

None of those teams would factor into a discussion of the best of all time, but they would be a competitive team occasionally.

He probably experienced the most success of his career towards the end of the 1990s when he and Too Cool were a fun-loving team that some fans loved.

Rikishi held tag team titles three times, but one of the weirdest storylines in WWE history was when it was revealed that he was the man who 'ran over Steve Austin with a car' in the early 2000s. It was sort of a let down of a storyline with potential.

His resume did include winning the Intercontinental Championship once but other than that, his career was that of a mid-card staple at best.
