Tama Tonga Whacks Fan with Vicious Chops at Restaurant

Ryan Satin of ProWrestlingSheet.com is reporting Tama Tonga posted videos Monday on Snapchat which show the wrestler at a restaurant with his brother Tanga Loa, aka ex-WWE Superstar Camacho.

After some preparation, the IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team champs take turns doling out chops, and you can check out footage at this link.

Another WWE Star Absent from WWE Raw Battle Royal

As noted, both Heath Slater and Ryback were scheduled to be in the U.S. Title #1 contender battle royal match on WWE Raw last night, however both did not appear in the match. Ryback was sent home from Raw as he is amidst a contract dispute with WWE, and it’s unknown at this time why Slater did not appear in the bout.

As seen in the match graphic posted below, Jack Swagger was also being advertised for the bout, and for unknown reasons he did not compete:
