Jacob Fatu Concedes Defeat to Roman Reigns Before Making Bloodline Debut, Reason Explained

Roman Reigns‘ family is seemingly taking over his stable in his absence. While he left The Bloodline believing that it was in safe hands with Solo Sikoa, things turned around when fans saw what he was capable of without supervision. Now, the stable has welcomed two more members who will accompany Sikoa in wreaking havoc all over WWE. But there is one more talent who is yet to debut.

The superstar in question is Jacob Fatu. He is sidelined for now because of some complications. Although he was signed to the Stamford-based company immediately after WrestleMania XL, people have yet to see him perform. But he seems to have dropped a major hint about his future in the storyline.

Roman Reigns held supreme by Jacob Fatu

Ever since he lost the title at Mania 40, there has been ongoing speculation that the Anoa’i family members may not respect Reigns the same way. This might result in a revolt, throwing him out of The Bloodline. This could mean that Jacob Fatu will be placed against him if he joins the heel stable. However, in an interview with MuscleManMalcolm several months before his WWE signing, Fatu claimed that he may not be able to defeat The Tribal Chief.

Jacob Fatu said, “With Roman Reigns being who he is and what he has done, it’s kind of hard to really balance me and Roman because [I will] keep it one hundred, no disrespect or anything, bro is up here. I’m just, f**k man, he might be up.”

Fatu believes that Roman Reigns is the Head of the Table for a reason and Fatu doesn’t come close to the respect that The Big Dog deserves for taking care of the family in the present era of WWE. Although he wishes to face him in the ring, Jacob Fatu may end up siding with Roman Reigns.

Could Jacob Fatu end up as The Tribal Chief’s supporter?

So far, all the members of The Bloodline seem to be preparing to exile The Tribal Chief from his stable. If Jacob Fatu ends up joining Sikoa in his quest to overthrow the Anoa’i chief, then the story would go in a completely different direction. However, with the way that Jacob Fatu thinks of his cousin, he may help him redeem himself and turn babyface.

This would allow Roman Reigns to fix things with The Usos and take back the stable that they started together. Jacob Fatu may also play a role in helping out his cousins further.
