Wrestling Uncensored Episode 652. September 8, 2023. Hosted by Dave Simon and Johnny North.
Dave Simon and Johnny North on Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's Family Ties:
Dave clarified that The Rock is not blood-related to the prominent Samoan wrestling family.
Johnny believed there was a connection by marriage, but Dave refuted this, stating that after examining the family tree, they are separate entities.
The Rock's Lineage:
Dave explained that Peter Maivia (The High Chief) had a daughter named Atta, who married Rocky Johnson. Their son is Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.
The Rock's lineage is separate from the larger Samoan wrestling family, which includes the likes of Yokozuna and Roman Reigns.
The Extensive Samoan Wrestling Family:
Dave detailed the vastness of the Samoan wrestling family, mentioning names like Yokozuna, Roman Reigns, Rikishi, and the USOs.
He emphasized that while many associate The Rock with this family due to wrestling connections, he is not blood-related.
The High Chief, Peter Maivia, was a significant figure in Samoan wrestling and acted as a godfather to many Samoan wrestlers, which is why they are closely knit.
Potential Matchup: The Rock vs. Roman Reigns:
Dave speculated on a potential match between The Rock and Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40 to determine the top Samoan wrestler.
He believed that The Rock should lose to Roman Reigns, given Roman's current prominence in WWE.
Johnny North on Past Matches:
Johnny recalled a rare match he watched between Yokozuna and Rikishi (then known as Fatu) that took place in the U.K.
He noted the physical limitations of Yokozuna during the match due to his weight.
Legacy of the Samoan Wrestling Family:
Dave praised the Samoan wrestling family for not only producing a large number of wrestlers but also exceptionally talented ones.
He highlighted the versatility of Rikishi, who portrayed various characters throughout his WWE career.
Dave marveled at the family's achievement of having multiple WWE champions within their ranks.
