Ranking all second generation wrestlers in NJPW

#3 Tama Tonga

Tama Tonga was a founding member of Bullet Club

A wise man once said, “A rejection is nothing more than a necessary step in pursuit of success.” The story of Alipate Fifita, the adopted son of Haku and brother of Tevita Fifita, best justifies this quote.

He, with his brother, took part in WWE tryout in 2009, where he was rejected and his brother was selected. Fast forward nearly a decade and he finds himself in the same position as his brother.

The major differences being that Tama Tonga was founding member of arguably the greatest wrestling faction of the 21st century, the Bullet Club and had a promising singles run at the G1 Climax 2016.

More than anything else, it’s his intense behaviour and lightning-quick movement in the ring that has earned him a lot of praise lately. With the G1 Climax 2017 approaching and not much to achieve left in the tag-team division, a major singles run seems inevitable.
