Tonga

**Fale Simitaitoko** is a Tongan professional wrestler. He currently works for New Japan Pro Wrestling as **Bad Luck Fale** (バッドラック・ファレ, *Baddorakku Fare*). He is a former one-time IWGP Tag Team Champion, a former three-time NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Champion and a one-time IWGP Intercontinental Champion. His name translates to "house" in Tongan, which fits his wrestling persona as an immovable force.

Fale is one of the founding members of the infamous Bullet Club, an originally all-foreigner group that has seen great success in the company. The group and his dojo, the Fale Dojo has helped add a bridge for non-Japanese wrestlers to wrestle for New Japan Pro-Wrestling.

## Early life

Simitaitoko was a rugby union player prior to him training and debuting for New Japan Pro-Wrestling. He attended the strong rugby school of De La Salle College, Mangere East in Auckland, New Zealand and was a member of the 1st XV from 1999 to 2000, also making age grade rugby teams along the way. He then accepted a scholarship to play rugby in Japan at Tokuyama University, alongside fellow New Zealander Sila Iona and Greame Brent where they attended from 2001 to 2005. From April 2006 to March 2008 he played for the Japanese rugby union team Fukuoka Sanix Blues. He would start training to become a professional wrestler in June 2009.

## Personal life

Fale is the cousin of Bullet Club stablemate Tama Tonga, with both having spent their early childhoods in Muʻa, Tonga without meeting. They were in the NJPW dojo at the same time and realized they were related when a relative commented on a photo Fale had posted on social media. He is of Tongan ethnicity and is fluent in Tongan, English and Japanese.

Fale is in a relationship with go-go dancer Pieter, also known as the "Tokyo Latina", who has made appearances for NJPW as a valet for Fale's Bullet Club stablemate Yujiro Takahashi.

Fale also runs his own professional wrestling school Fale Dojo in Auckland, New Zealand that has seen a few of its notable alumni in NJPW (Aaron Henare, Jay White).

## Professional wrestling persona and style

When Fale first turned his back on Yuji Nagata and most of New Japan's fan favorites, he became known as *The Underboss* of Prince Devitt and Bullet Club, carrying Devitt to the ring. After a few years, Fale decided to embrace not being a low-key member of Bullet Club, renaming his persona *The Rogue General*. Fale, being a larger wrestler has always utilized *power-based* moves in his arsenal. Being a villainous character, he uses his power to inflict more pain than necessary and to control the opponent's pace. He is also known to attack ring announcers before his match. Despite having the power (and at some times in his career, the athletic) advantage over most of his opponents, Fale's character has always tried to take the easy way out and cheat during matches.

Fale's big moves include a jumping splash, the *Grenade,*a Thumb Lariat (succeeded after choke-lifting the opponent with his other hand), *Bad Luck Fall,* a release Crucifix Powerbomb and different variations of a Schoolboy sweep.
