Bully Ray Evaluates Tama Tonga Making His WWE Debut

– During a recent edition of Busted Open Radio, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray discussed Tama Tonga making his WWE debut last week on SmackDown and joining The Bloodline. Tonga previously trained at Bully Ray’s Team 3D Academy. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):

Bully Ray on Tonga debuting in WWE: “Very proud of Tama Tonga and his finally debuting in the WWE. I want to talk about how the segment went off the air. I don’t know if I needed to know who Tama Tonga was the minute he jumped the rail and hit the ring. Like, I found it just a little bit odd that Wade Barrett and Corey Graves knew immediately ‘That’s Tama Tonga, son of Haku.'”

On the differences between Tongans and Samoans: “Haku is Tongan. The Bloodline are Samoan. Different, considerably different, but amongst the Samoan Family and the Tongan Family, very much the same because the Tongan families and Samoan families have crossed over a lot.”
