He was a cherished friend to many, a loving family member whose warmth and kindness knew no bounds, and an inspiration to countless individuals. His legacy will continue to inspire and uplift future generations, reminding us of the impact one person’s life can have on so many. Rest in love Uncle Sika."

Born in the village of Leone on the island of Tutuila in American Samoa, Sika moved to San Francisco, California, where he pursued a successful wrestling career after leaving the United States Merchant Marine. His legacy in professional wrestling is significant, particularly within the Anoa’i family. He was the father of professional wrestlers Rosey and current WWE Champion Roman Reigns.
Along with his brother Afa, Sika helped shape the future of the wrestling industry.
