    I actually met your father, twice.
    Once in TNA Wrestling, after he left, and then when he was doing Umaga. The man took the time out, about ten minutes of his time to tell me some of his struggles back when. People don't get how well spoken he was, when he wasn't playing a character. He gave me one of the best compliments I have ever gotten- he called me Samoan tough for fighting all the battles I've been fighting. Thank your father for that, and many blessings and prosperity to you and all your family. Thank you Eddie!

I was born in 92, my mom passed in 07, my dad passed in 2010, I caught a case and did time soon after that. This brought back memories of the last time I saw my pops. I see greatness in you, young fella! I'm excited to see the career you've got ahead of you. Your outlook on life just won me over, brother. Keep that mindset, take care of your body, and keep fighting the good fight! Your story is going to inspire a lot of people and your authenticity is going to take you a long way. Your dad would be proud of the man you've become. I believe in you🫡

    You don't have to apologize for crying. It's okay to feel the pain of losing your father even now. Losing a parent is hard as an adult, I can't even imagine how much harder it was for you and your brothers as kids. I lost my mom in 2008 from metastatic breast cancer and I knew it was coming, I told myself I was ready for it. When the time came and I found myself alone, sitting beside her that night holding her hand, it took everything I had in me to tell her the words she needed to hear to finally let go. Though everyone had told her it was okay to let go, she'd fought as hard as she could. She just wouldn't let go, something still kept her fighting. As I sat with her that night fighting my to keep my tears at bay, because I told myself I had to be strong, I told her several times it was okay for her to let go with no change. Finally I said the words that I wasn't sure we're true but I knew she needed to hear which were, "Mom it's okay you can let go. I'm gonna be okay. I promise." With those words said she took a final breath and I felt her heart stop beating. I broke down and cried at the loss of my mother, my best friend, my biggest supporter, my defender, and my cheerleader all in one. After about 5 minutes I pulled myself together and woke up my father and nephew who were home with me as my mom was in hospice, I called the hospice nurse, and my siblings. It would be 3 months before I allowed myself to breakdown again and actually cry for the loss of my mom. I had to be the strong one for my dad because no one would be and of course the rest of the family elected me his caretaker. My father passed 3 years later in 2011. I still feel their losses almost daily, I feel my mom's the deepest as we were the closest. This Halloween will be the 15th anniversary of my mom's passing. I still can't talk about my mom's passing without breaking down😭

    Came across u tonight for the 1st time ❤ been a wrestlin fan since late 80s early 90s 😅 This had me bawling. Went thru similar havin to make that decision last Nov with my mom. It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do. What matters now is your bounceback.. I cant wait to see it. **Hugs**

    The respect that I have for you, not knowing you at all, is very high. Your honesty and vulnerability is admirable! Eddie was the Super Samoan in my book. He passed before I could try and do a loop with him, though I stayed mainly in the Carolinas, Virginias, Maryland, and the Reservations on the East Coast. He passed, and I got career ending injuries, so I didn't get the opportunity. He was one of my dream indy opponents, I just didn't get the chance. Faamanuia le atua!

    I am so sorry for your loss from the bottom of my heart. I don't often cry but you just got me there man. I grew up watching your father as Umaga and I was such a huge fan being a young eight grader I used to get so exited when Umaga would appear my ears would go deff from excitement. I was such a big fan of his and am sad I never got to see Umaga live. I am so sorry for your loss and I remember hearing about it by always looking up when umaga would return to wwe I was so heartbroken. God bless you and your family brother.

    Subscribed, but also because you showed Heart.
    High-key, your Dad was the only legitimate tough dude i felt in an actual fight could had taken on Brock Lesnar straight up. Even in a stiff. The dude was tough, and i feel that doesn't get talked about. Probably because his career was short lived. But damn i knew i sensed something special about him.
    We always look up at our father's thinking they're invincible. But time waits for no one. It sucks to see my father aging, and becoming weaker. In pain. My mom too.
    Now I'm a father since 9 year's this month. It's surreal.
    Your dad is a legend regardless. I feel like I've known you for year's, even though i just found this channel.
    Good luck bro. Stay up. 🤙❤🙏

    I respect you for showing your true raw emotions. It’s okay to cry, especially when it’s about your father. I can tell that you love him so much. Just remember that it’s always okay to cry. I hate when people say it’s weak to cry, especially for a man. Crying can be very refreshing. It feels very empowering to let those emotions loose. It’s the best thing that a human can do. I can’t wait to see you in NXT. Please keep working hard and stay consistent. You have huge opportunities coming your way in the future. Stay humble and keep honoring your father. I know he would be so proud to watch you grow. 💯

    I lost my Dad 9 years ago on his 56th birthday. It never gets easier. I dream of him every week and make every decision thru the lens of what he would’ve wanted. They would’ve wanted us to become stronger men even thru their passing. That’s something that would’ve made them proud that we kept going.

    I'm at 16:04 and I just wanna let you know g that I'm 30 I grew up watching your dad in 3 minute warning (which was my favorite) and as umaga. Your dad used to scare the shit outta me! Such a great talent I loved watching him wrestle. We lost a great one with him and he'd be proud to see how you turned out. I'm a new subscriber but I gotta say this took a massive amount of balls to post. Rest in peace to umaga (jamal) thanks for sharing bro
