Former WWE Tag Team Champion and WCW Hardcore Champion Haku recently did an interview with Sportskeeda to talk about several professional wrestling topics. Haku was first asked about who the toughest man he has ever faced was:
“They’re all tough. It’s very kind of others to talk like that about me. But, as you know, I come from a Third World Country, hoping only to spread the name of Tonga in the world. My parents, my grandparents, my cousins, my hundredth cousin…they wanted me to send money home. I had to fight my way for everything, to send money home.”
Haku has earned himself quite a huge reputation as a tough guy amongst his peers in the professional wrestling world. He discussed being challenged by many when he was younger:
“There are people out there who don’t understand wrestling, who wanted to try the wrestlers and the wrestler they faced just happened to be me (laughs). We were just told that we have to take care of ourselves, inside and outside the ring. Pro wrestling has been great to us, to me and my family. It was wrestling that helped me survive all these years.”
Finally, Haku was asked about tomorrow’s PCW Ultra event in California. Haku said he’d like to go to the event and pass the torch to a new generation:
“I’ve done it. I’ve given everything to wrestling. I want to go to PCW Ultra and pass the torch to new generations. Martial arts and all that stuff is far behind me now and I gave it all to wrestling when I was able to.”
