Sportskeeda meets Tama Tonga
Our interview with NJPW Tama Tonga continues below.
That's another thing that came up that we need to move on to. They said to me, "We want a working relationship between IMPACT and New Japan." I knew I was interviewing Tama Tonga, so I can now get a little bit of input from both sides since those guys have their fingers in all the pies! I know a lot of people would remember stuff that's happened in the past but what are your thoughts on any potential working relationship? We know IMPACT has new management that is familiar with New Japan. What would your thoughts on something like that happening?
I think it would be great! I think it would be great to get... Let's bring our product out here to the States. It would be great to have a platform to share that. We used to be on AXS, we used to have a regular thing here, but I think with the situation, the world situation, and things kind of taking a turn, I think it would be a good relationship for both. Having the Good Brothers there, someone we trust that worked with us before, that understands New Japan, the ins and outs, could really facilitate things like these and I think it would be great altogether. I would love that.
So, obviously, we're going to get into New Japan but I've got one question beforehand. I never really knew how I felt about this comparison but people used to alway compared Tama Tonga and Roman Reigns. What was that comparison like for you? What do you think of being compared to Roman Reigns?
All positive for me. To me, it's nothing. If the fans think so, OK, great. He's up there a level with exposure and all it does it is put me out there with him. So that's all positive. It's all good. Love it. I have no negativity with it. And we had a lot of spat, back and forth but he knows now I ain't one to back down. But it's all good, we have that understanding.
That's a match I would love to see, but we know that if anything ever came of it, you've got the military background which is why I believe you're wear the military attire. You've got the upper hand there, definitely you can say that.
Oh, definitely!
