Hello Chatterboxers, I hope everyone had a great summer and are enjoying the fall. I am proud to introduce to the wrestling world my niece Sarona Snuka - Polamalu. She is the very first woman in this family to become a professional wrestler.
Sarona Snuka is a second generation wrestler, the daughter of WWE Hall of Fame legend Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka. Her heritage is of Fijian, Samoan and Tongan descendants.
Sarona was blessed with great genetics, she is extremely athletic, smart, and equally tough. In college she played basketball and was an assistant basketball coach. She also doubled as a wild land fire fighter and later worked with the disabled and the handicapped.
Sarona’s burning desire has been to follow in her father’s footsteps. Her dream was to step in that wrestling ring, and to someday entertain wrestling fans worldwide. In June 2009, she received the honor of being the first recipient of the Lia Maivia scholarship in memory of her late aunt, from Usos Foundation to train at the Wild Samoan Wrestling Training Center.
In three short months her dream has become a reality with her debut in Minneola, FL- the home base of WXW Wrestling. Sarona has a bright future in pro wrestling and fans will love her kind but tough ring presence.
Fans of womens wrestling -Sarona Snuka will be one of the Elite 8 women to participate in the 7th annual WXW Elite 8 Tournament which will take place at the Minneola Receration Center in Minneola, FL on November 14th. Also participating in this event will be Daffney, Betsy Ruth, Leva, Lorelei Lee, Lace, Jennifer Blake, and Rain.

If there are any Chatterboxers who live in Minneola, Florida and are reading my column, I hope we can count on your support to re-elect our mayor David Yeager. Here is an open letter that I wrote and proudly inserted into our WXW wrestling program. I'd like to share it with you:
Open Letter to Mayor David Yeager
Dear Mayor Yeager:
As we celebrate our one year anniversary of hosting WXW Wrestling events at the City Hall, we would like to thank you for all of your help and support in what we do.
You are a hands-on Mayor who truly cares about our community and who is not afraid to welcome different events into Minneola so our community can go out and have fun with their loved ones.
When we were approaching our first live event there were many who did not want us to bring our family oriented pro wrestling into the recreation center, but you gave us your 100% support and we are truly thankful to you.
You have also gone above and beyond to help us secure our wrestling training camp here in Minneola, and we can't thank you enough for that and we hope and pray that the people in Minneola re-elect you as our mayor for many more years ahead..
WXW and all our fans are lucky to have you as our Mayor!
Respectfully yours,
Afa “The Wild Samoan” Anoa`i
RE-ELECT Mayor David Yeager!
In closing, I'd like to wish a very happy birthday to my son Afa Jr. and my nephew Solo "The Hamo Bull".
Until next month, God bless.
Afa "The Wild Samoan"
