Tama Tonga Announces He’s Signed A New Contract With NJPW
Tama Tonga is no longer a free agent.
On February 6, Tama tweeted “I am a free agent since January 30, 2022” but used the hashtag #misinformation, leading to some confusion as to whether or not the tweet was true.
On the latest Tama’s Island, he cleared up the confusion by saying that he was a free agent on January 30, but his free agency period did not last very long.
“It’s true. I was a free agent on January 30. I am now officially signed with New Japan Pro Wrestling,” he said.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
