Biography: WWE Legends S03E08 - Yokozuna

Rodney Anoa'i was a high school dropout who needed direction and purpose. That's when Rodney joined the family business in World Wrestling Entertainment. After exploding on to the scene in 1992, the 500 pound giant became "Yokozuna", and quickly skyrocketed to WWE superstardom as he battled legends Hulk Hogan, The Undertaker and Bret "Hitman" Hart. In the ring, he became the top villain in the industry but outside the ring, Rodney was a lovable family man who always helped his friends. In 2000, the size and stature that made him a star ultimately took his life when he died suddenly at the age of 34. Yokozuna remains one of the greatest "big men" in WWE history, and his legacy lives on through his children, Justin and Keilani, as well as the grandson with his namesake, Rodney.
