Former MLW World Champion Jacob Fatu made his long-awaited debut on Friday Night SmackDown. The main event was a chaotic fight between Cody Rhodes and Solo Sikoa. The match, already intense, took a dramatic turn when Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa stormed the ring, launching a brutal attack on the WWE champion.
In a moment that left fans breathless, Randy Orton and Kevin Owens emerged to aid Rhodes, clearing the ring and leaving Sikoa seemingly vulnerable. The Tribal Heir’s fearful retreat to a corner was a calculated move, masking the presence of his brother, Jacob Fatu. With a ferocious intensity, Fatu made his presence felt, decimating Orton and Owens, even using Owens’ body to shatter a barricade.
Jacob Fatu’s Unstoppable Force
Fatu’s rampage continued as he mercilessly punished Rhodes, slamming him against the barricades and the hard floor. The climax saw Fatu diving from the ring corner, obliterating the commentary table with Rhodes’ body, showcasing his formidable strength and earning immediate recognition from the WWE Universe. The buzz around his debut left fans eager to see what was next for the Bloodline.
Rikishi’s Cryptic Message
Adding to the intrigue, WWE legend Rikishi took to social media, posting a tantalizing clue about the future of the Bloodline. His tweet, “NEXT IN LINE…,” sparked a whirlwind of speculation among fans and insiders. The post hinted at a potential new addition to the faction, with many pointing to the late Umaga’s son, Zilla Fatu, as the likely candidate.
