[edit] History
[edit] World Wrestling Federation (1995-1996)
The tag team, Samoan Gangster Party was made up of two brothers, Lloyd and Samu, the sons of legendary Afa Anoa'i. Lloyd originally worked in the independent circuit while Samu wrestled with cousin Fatu as The Headshrinkers in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) and originally Samoan Swat Team before WWF. Samu left the spotlight before returning to the WWF as Sammy the Silk with Lloyd as LA Smooth. They were dubbed "Samoan Gangster Party". Silk and Smooth did not wrestle for WWF but instead came down with Fatu during his matches from a far. The team never got in the ring or confronted Fatu before he was repackaged as The Sultan while Silk and Smooth left the WWF and the angle was eventually dropped.
