Rikishi On How His Entrance Gear Was Inspired By Yokozuna

Rikishi was proud to honor his cousin Yokozuna on his entrance gear, following the latter’s passing over twenty years ago.

During Sunday night’s episode of WWE’s Most Wanted Treasures, Rikishi showed off the gear he wore following his cousin’s death in 2000.

Rikishi explained that the gear features the phrase “RKJ 4 Life,” referencing Yokozuna (real name Rodney Anoa’i) and Yokozuna’s children Keilani and Justin.
