Fun Fact abot Fatu’s positive Gimmick in 1995 taken from “The Headshrinkers Wikipedia page” After being away from the spotlight for a while Samu returned to the WWF in 1995. Samu along with his cousin Matt Anoa'i were known as "The Samoan Gangster Party" with Samu being known as "Sammy the Silk" and his cousin Matt Anoa'i (son of Sika) became known as "Big Matty Smalls", and joined Samu as The Samoan Gangstas. The two men did not wrestle for the WWF but watched Fatu from afar as the former Headshrinker tried to turn himself into a positive role model for kids on the street.[22] The angle was dropped as the Samoan Gangster Party never got in the ring or confronted Fatu before he was repackaged.
