The New and improved Mana has forged a trail that few have had the oppurtunity to make in as short a time as he has, facing top names in the Independant Industry as well as many former and Current WWE Superstars. Mana has literally run over the competition with a savageness uncomparable to any other pro wrestler on the scene today.

The brutality and the ease at which Mana has disposed of opponent by opponent, victim by victim has much to be explained by who Mana was trained by - Afa The Wild Samoan and Headshrinker Samu. This native of Waikato New Zealand may have been raised in surreal conditions, but is definately destructive by nature within the four corners of the ring especially taking on board the teachings of two of the best at his style.

MANA is a Maori , A Son of Aotearoa, the first of his people to dare to come from his place of origin to America and proud to be a Kiwi. Brought up from humble beginnings  in a small place called Matamata in the regions of Ngati Haua, Mana is the baby of eight. But now Mana is here and Mana misses his Whanau, his Family, and is forced to release his anger, his sadness, his frustrations of being so far from the people he loves on people he faces in the ring. Now is the time for Mana, This year coming of 2005 will be the year for him  he will prove all the wrongdoers and he will rise to the top. He is being seen there near that destination  but soon  noone will withstand the Island Monsters Fury because he is - " NEVER SCARED "
