5 Things you did not know about WWE tag team AOP

#4 Akam is Canadian and Rezar is Dutch

AOP with Drake Maverick

AOP members Akam and Rezar are billed as being from India and Albania, respectively, but Akam, real name Sunny Dhinsa, is actually Canadian-born, hailing from Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada.

The 26-year-old AOP member went to college at Simon Fraser University, and made his WWE Performance Center debut in April of 2015.

As for Rezar, his real name is Gzim Selmani, and the 25-year-old was actually born in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

When the two stars debuted on WWE NXT TV, they were packaged as a team of military-style fighters, who dominated the tag team division with emphasis on their size and strength. The two never spoke, as they were represented by Paul Ellering, and on the main roster by Drake Maverick, who did the talking for the tag team.

However, in the promo which aired on WWE RAW this week promoting their returns, Akam and Rezar can be heard speaking Punjabi and Albanian. Punjabi is a language spoken in India, from which a lot of pro wrestlers, such as Jinder Mahal and Mahabali Shera originally hail. Canada, where Akam is from, is also populated with many people of Punjabi descent.
