/ ABOUT TALLA TONGA

Hikuleo debuted as a professional wrestler in 2016 in New Japan Pro-Wrestling, becoming a member of Bullet Club and Guerrillas of Destiny, winning the Strong Openweight Championship, Strong Openweight Tag Team Championship twice, and the IWGP Tag Team Championship. He departed NJPW in 2024 and signed with WWE that same year. After nearly a year of training, he debuted at Night of Champions in 2025 as Talla Tonga, assisting Solo Sikoa to win the WWE United States Championship before the ring name was adjusted and the Bloodline was rebranded to the MFT. The six-foot-eight powerhouse possesses extraordinary size and strength with a dominant in-ring presence.

Talla Tonga is signed to WWE where he performs on the SmackDown brand as a member of the MFT stable. He is currently dealing with an undisclosed injury but is expected back fairly soon.
