The introduction of Tama Tonga has freshened up The Bloodline storyline but led to more questions about his role and Solo Sikoa's apparent nickname for him. The Enforcer referred to Tonga as his "MFT" recently and Jim Cornette hilariously speculated what it could mean.

For starters, nobody knows what "MFT" actually stands for, though fans online have tried to decipher the initials. Jim Cornette addressed the confusion around "MFT" on his podcast and wondered whether WWE had made up something that actually doesn't exist.

Cornette and show host Brian Last even googled for answers but were left with options like - Marriage & Family Therapist and Masters of Foreign Trade, which both comically have no connection whatsoever to the Samoan storyline in WWE.

Jim Cornette honestly admitted that he might not be up to date with internet trends and initially believed "MFT" was a product of a viral phenomenon.

"You mean to tell me they just made up initials? I thought BFF for the longest time was a boy f**king friend. I don't know what! I thought it wasn't one of those hip initials things that the kids were tweeting about doing the Facebook thing and the Myspace and getting on TikTok about it," he said.

Jim Cornette and Brian Last's comical exchange ended with the wrestling veteran giving his version of what "MFT" could be. Cornette went with 'Major F**king Troublemaker' and felt it perfectly represented Tama Tonga.

"I like mine. Major F**king Troublemaker. I think it's better than anybody else has come up with on Google," declared Cornette.

Tama Tonga's first words since joining The Bloodline increase the suspense around "MFT"

Since debuting on the SmackDown episode after WrestleMania XL and attacking Jimmy Uso, Tama Tonga has looked like one of the biggest threats on the blue brand.

He is officially in The Bloodline and wreaking havoc on SmackDown, accompanied by a more vocal Solo Sikoa, whose recent character change also got his father, Rikishi's attention.

Tama Tonga has begun his WWE run excellently as a heel and reacted to his recent actions with a one-word response on Instagram. As you can view below, Tonga surprisingly just wrote "MFT" in his post.

The Bloodline story's next chapter seemingly sets up a potential faction led by Solo Sikoa. Tama Tonga has already joined the group, and there is a possibility he is followed by other members of the Samoan family whom the WWE Universe has not yet seen.
