Jacob Fatu is a real-life Bloodline member from the Anoa’i Wrestling Family. He is the son of Sam Fatu, cousin of The Usos and is the nephew of Rikishi, The Rock and Roman Reigns. Jacob Fatu was trained by Rikishi and made his debut in 2012. He stated that The Usos are his inspirations for his professional wrestling career.
He spent the first seven years of his career in the independent promotions and moved to Major League Wrestling, teaming up with fellow Anoa’i family members there. He was an MLW World Heavyweight Champion there, holding the title for 819 days, which is the longest title reign in the history of MLW.
In February 2024, he ended his five-year tenure with MLW to become a free agent and Rikishi officially revealed his departure. On April 8, 2024 PWInsider, Wrestling Observer & Fightful reported that Fatu had signed a contract with WWE and would make his return sooner.
Last week PWInsider announced that they have heard from the source that Jacob Fatu could debut within the week. However later withdrew his statement saying that there was no urge for his debut. Although this being said, the WWE fans on Twitter predict Fatu could debut on Backlash.
