Emeka Mukendi

“Wrestling is more than just entertainment, it's a way of life.”

Growing up in the Central African Republic, Emeka always had a love for wrestling. He would watch old WWE matches and practice the moves with his siblings. When he moved to Sydney as a teenager, Emeka started getting tattoos that represented his culture and heritage. His passion for wrestling never died down, and he eventually turned it into a career. Emeka is now a successful WWE wrestler, known for his signature move, the 'Lion's Roar'. But outside of the ring, he's a proud father to his three kids and volunteers at a local community center.

What inspired you to get your tattoos?

My tattoos are a way for me to stay connected to my roots and embrace my culture, even though I'm far from home.

What's the best part about being a WWE wrestler?

I love the connection I have with the fans. It's amazing to see people get so excited over something I love to do.
