• Update On How Much WWE Fined Tama Tonga

Tama Tonga of The MFTs was fined by WWE, according to Andrew Zarian of Mat Men. There was talk backstage at last week’s SmackDown that WWE penalized Tama for posting rehearsal footage last week, with the fine said to be significant.

The company reportedly has an unwritten rule prohibiting talent from recording or sharing content during rehearsals.

In an update from Fightful Select, Tama’s fine was in the “five figure territory.”

The MFTs (Tama Tonga and JC Mateo) lost the WWE Tag Team Titles to Damian Priest and R-Truth on SmackDown.
