Where Is He Now: New Japan Pro-Wrestling

You would think the son of Haku would have fared better in WWE, but Camacho flamed out after just a few years on the main roster, serving as Hunico’s heavy and riding on his bike to the ring. (Yes, that really happened.) He went on to a singles career after Hunico began donning the Sin Cara mask before being released in 2014.

After leaving WWE, Camacho wrestled in TNA for several months under the name Michah, but he gained his biggest fame in 2016 when he joined New Japan and teamed up with his brother Tama Tonga in the Bullet Club. Now wrestling as Tanga Loa, the second-generation wrestler has become a six-time IWGP tag champ with his brother and won the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship three times.
