NJPW News: Tama Tonga Facing Disciplinary Action For Social Media Conduct
New Japan Pro Wrestling’s Tama Tonga has certainly been making some waves over the past couple of weeks, not just for his actions against the rest of the Bullet Club, but for his comments on social media.
The ‘Bad Boy’ of the Bullet Club Firing Squad has been very outspoken on Twitter as of late, firing back without a second thought against fans and wrestlers alike. Recently, Tama has not held back and was placed in “Twitter jail” for some of his remarks, even getting into a back-and-forth with WWE’s Roman Reigns:

I’m out of #twitterJail you bitches. One of you is a #Rat

Got the #Snitch.
Your bark can’t seem to get OVER your Yard for me to hear you. My yard has no fences, come test your skills here anytime. “Jealousy is a bitch trait”- what album is that from? #RomanTheRat pic.twitter.com/VMTMKjlyNR— 'Bad Boy' Tama Tonga (@Tama_Tonga) July 25, 2018
Additionally, Tama even went as far as to choke a fan at a recent event and today, it looks as if New Japan Pro Wrestling officials have finally had enough of Tama’s social media conduct, issuing the following statement:
“NJPW takes actions taken by our wrestlers seriously. In light of recent inappropriate conduct by Tama Tonga including SNS usage, the company has decided to take disciplinary actions against said wrestlers, and will issue updated guidelines to all wrestlers.”
While it remains to be seen exactly what type of punishment will be handed down to Tonga, it does appear as if his days of stepping over the line on Twitter have come to an end.
EA’s Take: I’ve actually loved what Tama has been doing recently, it’s been some great heel work. Has he gone a bit over the line? For today’s society, I’d say the answer is, “Yes”. Unfortunately, that’s just the day and age we’re in right now. Being overly sensitive just comes with today’s territory, people can’t seem to decipher the difference between jokes and what they should be offended by, which is only getting worse. I give props to Tama because at the end of the day, this is the most publicity he’s ever gotten in his career. He just needs to find a way to keep it going without “melting the snowflakes”.

TNA Impact on AMC Drops to 175,000 Viewers, 0.03 18-49 Rating Amid Heavy Sports Competition
TNA Thursday Night Impact averaged 175,000 viewers on AMC last week, a 17.5% decline from the previous week’s 212,000 and the lowest audience since January 22. The show posted a 0.03 rating in the key 18-49 demo, down 25% and matching its lowest demo figure on AMC since the move.
The drop coincided with stiff competition — Impact ran opposite the NFL Draft (simulcast on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network) as well as NHL and NBA playoff coverage, leaving the program tied for 70th on the primetime cable charts. Versus the prior 10-week average (0.04 rating and 240,300 viewers), last week’s show fell 25% in the demo and 27.2% in overall viewers.

Nick Hogan Open to Pursuing In-Ring Career After Viewing Hulk Hogan: Real American
Nick Hogan told the Bonus Edition of the 83 Weeks podcast that after watching the final version of Hulk Hogan: Real American he’s more open than ever to stepping into the ring if the opportunity presents itself. Hogan said he’s been knocking off ring rust, is in good shape and “would absolutely welcome” the chance to pursue an in‑ring career, and noted the docuseries — which premiered on Netflix on April 22, 2026 — helped clarify his father’s legacy.
He also praised the series for pulling back the curtain on the many facets of Hulk Hogan, from character work to charitable efforts, saying it showed how dynamic a person his father is. Nick added that the long-discussed Chris Hemsworth biopic from 2019 remains a possibility despite delays, as the documentary continues to renew interest in Hogan’s story.
