Pictures[edit]

We should really have at least one picture here. 72.199.69.111 (talk) 02:58, 26 April 2012 (UTC)Jordan123235[reply]

4th generation wrestler?[edit]

Article says so, but then doesn't say how. I don't recall Haku ever being billed as 3rd generation (or even 2nd) so how is Camacho 4th instead of 2nd? Needs explaining (and a cite, hopefully).76.226.123.180 (talk) 01:36, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

NXT or main roster?[edit]

He's still on WWE's website on the main roster, as is Hunico, who now portrays Sin Cara.PeterMan844 (talk) 07:54, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

He left WWE. So oh well.PeterMan844 (talk) 21:41, 17 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Camacho (wrestler)Tanga Roa – Hes become more notable in Japan. Now a two-time IWGP Tag Team Champion and the highlight of his career is in NJPW as Tanga Roa. 2A02:C7D:3B50:2400:61D7:37F8:A309:F491 (talk) 12:33, 14 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - His longest tenure in his career is with WWE and he only debuted in NJPW earlier this year. But, he is a two-time and the current tag team champion, whereas he has never held a title in WWE. Perhaps we can wait until this is clearly WP:COMMONNAME or once he gains more success under the name. Sekyaw (talk) 17:05, 15 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Oppose - I read the Tanga Roa name and asked myself "Who?" because if the article should be renamed now, it would be to Mycka from his TNA run. But this article will not be moved at this point in time to Tanga Roa. He's best known as Camacho and that's what we go with, not their current ring name.

  • Oppose - If a wrestler wrestles in WWE under a certain name, that's the name that people are going to recognize them by, no matter how short a time they spent there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:6000:5644:600:69D8:1173:FCB4:BDDF (talk) 23:04, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Camacho (wrestler)Tanga Roa – A year in NJPW. A year in Bullet Club. Guerrillas of Destiny one of the greatest tag teams in the World. More Exposure in NJPW. 2x IWGP Tag Team Champion. I think its time to move on from his Camacho days in WWE, because Tanga Roa outshines Camacho in a heartbeat. 2A02:C7D:3BB6:4800:49B5:3F73:C384:F57D (talk) 04:19, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New Japan doesn't have more exposure than WWE. Nothing does. Better spot on the card, maybe, but it's going to depend on his common name in the entirety of stuff written about him, not just more calling him the new name lately. InedibleHulk (talk) 04:45, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I had to read the article to remember who Camacho was. He had a tiny role in a big company, now he has a big role in a smaller (but still relatively big) company. It looks like sources have phased out using the old name so WP:NAMECHANGES applies.LM2000 (talk) 05:18, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support He has had success in New Japan. Camacho was a lackie for Hunico, the current Sin Cara. Not really worth keeping as Camacho. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 10:44, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support He has two titles in NJPW, the second largest promotion in the world. Against a small role in WWE. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 11:52, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per Fishhead2100 and others. (talk page stalker) CrashUnderride 04:35, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - time in NJPW and lack of major achievements in WWE this makes Tanga Roa his common name IMO.  MPJ-DK  10:51, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Tanga RoaTanga Loa – There always was a confusion on how to spell Tevita Fifita's ringname with either Tanga Loa or Tanga Roa, but this is the accurate and always has been the spelling to Fifita's ringname (see Tangaloa (Tongan mythology) / @TangaloaNJPW). 81.136.46.167 (talk) 02:04, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support, per nom. It's official that he uses Tanga Loa now anyways. L and R are interchangeable in Japanese dialect, but despite using both names at the time, Tanga Loa is usually how it's spelled and pronounced in English. Sekyaw (talk) 17:29, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Pretty clear "Tanga Roa" was a misspelling from NJPW from the start, seeing as how the name comes from Tangaloa. Both Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa himself have also stated from day 1 that it's Loa. REEEEEbbon Salminen(talk) 08:16, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
