RIKISHI – FITNESS AND DIET

Solofa Fatu Jr., also known as Rikishi, became famous as a WWE wrestler when he adopted the nickname “Stinkface”, which was attributed to his trademark move of sitting on the face of his opponents after successfully bringing them down on the floor. Weighing a hefty 425 pounds, his heavy body frame would undoubtedly weaken any competitor. But, in 2000, Rikishi badly hurt Steve Austin backstage during a wrestling match. To save himself from being presented to an attorney for trial, the incident made him leave his wrestling career.

During his absence from the ring, the wrestler adopted a healthy diet and fitness program and lost 125 pounds. After two years, Rikishi was able to return to WWE through The Rock’s help. He might need a Financial Advisor now to keep track of his finances. It would not be easy if he will hit rock bottom if he will neglect his health again.
