Umaga and Lashley had a great physical shoot style feud! Rest in power Umaga! You were definitely a fearsome gladiator! 🙏🏽👑

@youngreece864 Ай бұрын

I watched that feud from top to bottom one of my favorites from that time. They didn’t do a lot of flashy moves just explosive brawling from week to week!

@Mixedup90. Ай бұрын

@youngreece864 lasley jumping through the cage is legendary. And umanga has the best pop up samoan drop ive ever seen. Those 2 along with finley really made those matches look like fights.

I've lived in Pensacola FL all my life and surprised I've never seen Jacob here. I saw Rikishi and his kids when I worked at Checkers getting food. Plus, I feel old thinking about it, the Usos were kids playing in the van when Rikishi would come get food. I saw a person who had to be Roman Reigns father at a Whataburger too. He had to be one of the Wild Somoans. I wanted to speak but he looked scary as hell.

I live in Pensacola. Back in the early 90s or late 80s i was at the arcade in Cordova Mall playing that wrestling game Main Event. I was out of quarters so i just watched other people play until my mom was done shopping when some teen started talking to me about wrestling. He told me some wrestlers live in Pensacola. I'm thinking to myself "bull crap, nobody famous lives here other than Roy Jones Jr". He then says "Fatu lives here, matter of fact he's right behind you ". I'm like "yeah right" as i turn around but he wasn't lying. I kinda froze. Fatu was with a kid around 4yrs old, one of the Usos i assume, said "yall talkin bout my daddy".

When i was a kid i always rooted for the babyfaces. If you were a good guy, in my mind, that made you a better wrestler than the bad guys. I always backed the babyfaces and always expected them to win unless they got cheated. But there were 2 guys that legitimately scared me to the point that i never wanted any of my favourites to wrestle them because i didnt think they could win. And those guys were Umaga and Kurt Angle.
