The Samoan family in professional wrestling has been around for generations now. From The Wild Samoans to The Rock and Rikishi to Roman Reigns.

Regardless of his short career, Umaga is one of the most recognizable superstars of the Ruthless Aggression era. And while the WWE Universe recognizes his achievements, Rikishi believes the WWE also needs to do the same officially.

Rikishi tweeted out, “I feel it’s long overdue #UmagaHOF class of 2022. What do you say @WWEUniverse should my brother go in this year?? #UmagaClassOf2022.”
