In a recent episode of Busted Open Radio, WWE superstar Karl Anderson discussed several topics, including Tama Tonga’s debut alongside Solo Sikoa during Friday’s episode of WWE SmackDown.
“I think he’s got the perfect look, he’s got exactly what WWE needs. I think it’s great that Tama has had 15 or 16 years, all in New Japan Pro Wrestling, to come into WWE and show them that experience and that he is ready for prime time.
I think that it’s unlimited right now for what Tama Tonga can pull off in the WWE, I’m excited to watch man. Just knowing that he was coming last Friday, he had texted me and told me he was going to show up in the city, he had no clue he was going to debut that night either, which is kind of WWE style, they’ll bring you in and then, you’ve got to debut.
They told him that he was debuting, and it was pretty fun to watch my friend and brother go through the fact that he knows he is about to go on live national television for the first-time ever, I’m proud of him, I thought he knocked it out of the park, he looked amazing, which he always does, and I think he’s ready, I think the world is ready for Tama.
I think his attitude, the way he is, he’s an opinionated guy, he’s a charismatic guy, he’s a bit insane, I’m so glad that he is in that Bloodline storyline, because now he’s involved with the tippy top guys, he’s got Paul Heyman right there who is always creatively the genius that he is. It doesn’t get much cooler, especially if you’re a BULLET CLUB fan, and that has followed for so long.”
