Afa Jr. Teases ‘Son Of Stalin’ Character, ‘Guest Wrestler Spot’ In The Last Match

The Last Match is being advertised to be one of the biggest shows of all time that is a mix of theatre and professional wrestling. Adding to this, The Last Match will also have guest wrestlers popping up at every show. Recently, while speaking to Wrestlezone Managing Editor Bill Pritchard, former WWE Superstar Afa Jr. shared some insight on the Guest Wrestler Spot.

“The way the guest wrestler spot is designed is, you’re going to see pretty much new wrestlers. New guest wrestlers pop up pretty much every night. And that goes beyond just the guest wrestler. That also goes with some of the female talent that’ll be going into the ballet with Teeth. So there’s a lot of moving parts. And it’s something that keeps it fresh. So that, if you did see one show in Rochester, you come a couple of nights later, it’s going to be a different show. Different moving parts to it and stuff. So it’s a really cool experience.”

Who will be cast?

Anoa’i Jr. also shared that fans will be in for a surprise and also local talent will also be present. He mentioned that it will be a unique experience in every city they perform.

“Yeah, it’ll be a good blend of both. It’ll be uh… You’re more popular wrestlers, you’re more seasoned wrestlers mixed with your locals. So the local variety of the way that we’re booking it with other outside companies, such as MCW and House of Glory and stuff like that. It makes it really unique to each area, each city that we stop in.”

Afa Jr. on the Surgeon and Son of Stalin Characters

During the same interview, Afa Jr. also opened up about his Surgeon and Son of Stalin characters.

“So the Surgeon character is the complete opposite of me. As everyone knows I’ve pretty much grown up as a Wild Samoan in this business. Crazy guy, picking his hair headbutting people. And now I get to be a more sophisticated surgeon. So it’s quite the challenge for me but I’m really having fun with it. And the Son of Stalin is yeah… It’s… We’re in 1989 man, right? This is the heart of wrestling in the 80’s. We’re about to cross over into the new generation and that’s where all these characters stem from. So the Son of Stalin is yeah, he’s your Volkov-type heel. And yeah just very menacing and it’s really fun to take on these roles. It really is,” Afa Jr. said.

The Last Match is touring now. Check out our full interview with Afa and Matt Rehwoldt below:
