TNA wrestler Mica (aka Camacho) recently spoke with Brian Fritz of Sporting News about the process of convincing his father, pro wrestling legend Haku (aka Meng) to let he and his brother enter the professional wrestling business.
“He didn’t like it at all,” Mica said of him and his brother Tama Tonga becoming pro wrestlers. “He worked his butt off to make sure our mom was there to stay home and take care of us, my brothers and my sister and for us to get a good education and experience other things other than wrestling. He was totally against it, he and our mother.”
Mica also shared his thoughts on former Smashing Pumpkins front man Billy Corgan joining the company to become part of the TNA creative team.
“I know Billy is a fan of wrestling,” he said. “I’ve met him before at wrestling fans as part of WWE and he loves wrestling. To have someone on board of his status, with his background to be part of the creative team with TNA, I think is a real blessing.”
