Afa Jr. had a run in WWE as Manu years ago, and he says he’s looking to get back in with the company. Afa, who was with WWE from 2006 through 2009, appeared on Busted Open Radio this week and talked about his goals to get back with WWE, plus his work as a choreographer on the musical The Last Match. You can see a couple of highlights below, per Wrestling Inc:

On his WWE goal: “I’m trying to get back on [WWE’s] radar. I’m trying to do the right things and stay hungry, and stay humble, and just keep it moving.”

On his work on The Last Match: “[I’ve] had to upgrade a lot and change with the times, you know, I can’t just stick to the standard that my dad had set back in the 80s and stuff like that because the business has changed. So, we’ve been able to roll and adapt and all that, so all my focus has gone to The Battlefield – my company, Battlefield Pro Wrestling. We have a couple of shows coming up; we just started running shows again. And The Last Match musical, I’ve been blessed to be a choreographer alongside Bull James, and that has taken off.”
