Following the latest episode of WWE SmackDown, Tonga Loa has once again become a hot topic among fans. However, the buzz isn't due to a noteworthy achievement but because of the hilarious botches he's made since his debut in the Stamford-based promotion.
On the latest edition of SmackDown, Tonga Loa was brutally attacked by Roman Reigns when he attempted to help Solo Sikoa against The Original Tribal Chief. Before the beatdown, he was seemingly involved in a hilarious botch.
In this article, we'll discuss three major blunders by the Bloodline member that have already caught the attention of fans since he arrived in WWE.
#3 Tonga Loa seemingly botches his debut itself
Tonga Loa's first botch occurred during his debut at Backlash France earlier this year. For those unaware, the 41-year-old star made his first WWE appearance at the 2024 Backlash Premium Live Event, where he assisted Solo Sikoa's Bloodline in securing a victory over Kevin Owens and Randy Orton.
However, when Tonga attempted to emerge from beneath the ring, his head got caught in the apron cloth, causing a slight delay in his entrance. This mishap was quickly noticed by fans, who humorously trolled The Infamous for the awkward debut.
#2 The low blow sequence at Money in the Bank 2024
The second noticeable botch by Tonga Loa occurred at Money in the Bank 2024 during the main event six-man tag team match, where The Bloodline faced off against Randy Orton, Kevin Owens, and Cody Rhodes. As the bout neared its conclusion, Tonga attempted to interfere by delivering a low blow to Kevin Owens.
The Infamous' attempt went awry as he failed to execute the low blow properly on his first try, resulting in a chaotic spot. This obvious botch was quickly noticed by fans, who didn't hesitate to jokingly call out the Bloodline member for the sequence following Money in the Bank 2024.
#1 Tonga botched while posing with the Tag Team Title on SmackDown
The most recent botch by Tonga Loa occurred during the latest episode of WWE SmackDown. It happened when Tonga joined The Bloodline for the main event segment. As Tama and Tonga raised the Tag Team Title to acknowledge the new Bloodline, the 41-year-old star lifted his title in a hilariously awkward manner.
This moment quickly caught the attention of fans, with some speculating that these botches might be part of Tonga's gimmick. Others believe that the former NJPW star's one eye being patched could explain why he held the championship in such an unusual way.
