The WWE Universe is abuzz with the recent return of Tanga Loa to the ring, and none other than Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s daughter, Ava, has taken to social media to show her support for the newcomer. At the recent Backlash France Premium Live Event, Loa made his WWE debut, teaming up with Tama Tonga and Solo Sikoa to take down Randy Orton and Kevin Owens in an electrifying tag team match.
Ava, clearly thrilled with Loa’s WWE debut, took to Instagram to react to the news, commenting with a salute face emoji. It’s a nod of approval and respect from the 11-year-old, who’s no stranger to the world of professional wrestling, given her father’s legendary status in the sport.
Meanwhile, AJ Styles, a former Bullet Club stablemate of Loa’s, has also weighed in on the newcomer’s WWE debut. Speaking with SHAK Wrestling in a recent interview, Styles revealed that he had long hoped to see Loa join the WWE ranks, but the timing hadn’t been right. Now, he’s thrilled to see his former Bullet Club brother make his mark in the Stamford-based company.
For the uninitiated, Loa and Tonga were known as the Guerrillas of Destiny during their time in New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), where they made a name for themselves as a formidable tag team. Their Bullet Club roots run deep, and it’s a testament to the faction’s enduring legacy that its members continue to make waves in professional wrestling.
In other news, the Bloodline, a faction that has made waves in the WWE in recent times, welcomed The Rock to its ranks in 2024. The People’s Champion brought his latest WWE run to a close on RAW following WrestleMania XL. Faction leader Roman Reigns, meanwhile, is currently on hiatus, having lost the Undisputed WWE Championship to Cody Rhodes on Night Two of WrestleMania XL.
As the WWE Universe continues to buzz with excitement over Loa’s debut, it’s clear that the road ahead promises to be filled with thrilling matches and unexpected alliances. With Ava and AJ Styles leading the charge, Tanga Loa is sure to have a solid support system as he navigates the WWE terrain.
