309. Samu
As the son of Afa of the Wild Samoan, Samu reached the big time early as the third member of the Samoan clan and even helped to defend the WWF World Tag Team Title when Sika was on the shelf for a bit. Despite his young age, he was not out of place and held is own against much more experienced competition. He would later team with his cousin Fatu and form a devastating tag team (The Samoan SWAT Team in NWA and the Headshrinkers in WWE). Samu was a decent tag team wrestler, but as he did not go in with Afa & Sika, and with Fatu’s career eclipses his, it does not seem likely for this Samoan to get in.
