Former WWE champion and current AEW superstar Chris Jericho recently shared a hilarious incident that happened between him and Roman Reigns' father back in the day.
Roman's father Leati Sika Anoa’i Amituana’i, popularly known as Sika was one of the most popular tag team wrestlers in the world.
Jericho on his Talk is Jericho podcast recalled the moment when he met the wrestling great while he was a kid.
Jericho went to Sika and asked for an autograph but the response that he got from the Samoan star was ‘f*ck off kid'.
Jericho was surprised to know that Sika spoke English. During that era wrestlers rarely broke kayfabe and fans didn't know more about the stars' personal lives.
The Wild Samoans were signed by the WWE (WWF back then) in 1979 and won multiple tag team championships during their time there.
Sika and Afa were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame back in 2007 by their respective sons Rosey and Samu.
Roman Reigns' cousin Solo Sikoa was asked to keep quiet after he was present during a moment where Roman's catchphrase was used
