The wrestling world has sent its condolences to the Anoa'i family after the passing of Roman Reigns' father, Sika. Wrestling legend Kevin Nash took to social media and paid tribute to the late WWE Hall of Famer.
After being trained by his brother, Afa, and Kurt Von Steiger, Sika debuted in Stampede Wrestling in 1973. The Wild Samoans gained popularity due to their in-ring skills and other attributes, including their habit of eating raw fish in the ring.
On Instagram, Nash posted a photo of Sika and sent his condolences to Roman Reigns after the tragic loss of his father.
"A legend passed today. Rest in power Sika. @romanreigns so sorry for your loss."
