Umaga was known for the nicknames “The Samoan Bulldozer” and “The Samoan Savage”.

He was best remembered for a match against Bobby Lashley in where WWE owner Vince McMahon put his hair on the line against the hair of Donald Trump.

    I feel sorry for the loss of Umaga,for his family, & fans as well. It's tragic coz' he's just 36-still young! But nevertheless, he'll always be remembered for contributing in the world of wrestling.
