Did Jacob Fatu just flip the script on the Bloodline? What does this mean for WWE's future?

The most ferocious member of the Bloodline at this time is undoubtedly Jacob Fatu. Due to WWE’s indecisiveness, the Samoan Werewolf had to wait a while to join forces with Sikoa’s Bloodline. Popular theories suggested that Triple H and his team withheld Fatu’s inclusion in the faction to safeguard Solo Sikoa’s leading momentum. The fear isn’t unrealistic at all. Fatu has been trained by his uncle Rikishi and has left a significant mark in various promotions from 2012 to 2019 in the Independent Circle. His MLW journey, however, brought him the highest recognition, boasting the longest reign as MLW World Heavyweight Champion in the title’s history, lasting an impressive 819 days.

But the terror went away as soon as Jacob Fatu made his first Bloodline appearance and quashed the trio of Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes, and Kevin Owens to make the save for Sikoa. The 32-year-old immediately caught the eyeballs of the entire WWE Universe as he ascended in stature. Despite his rare size, the premium athleticism, including a series of high-flying moves, he pulled in the stage of Money in the Bank was unfathomable. So, it won’t be surprising if WWE wants to put more weight on the wrestler from the esteemed lineage. But there is a twist in the story.

As we rapidly advance toward the potential Bloodline Civil, some interesting details stirred the fans into anticipating the next big twist on the platter. If Roman Reigns has indeed decided to handle the new Bloodline and take them down, Jacob Fatu will be the most disturbing factor that can make his defeat inevitable.

Also, by the flow of the events so far, it looks like Fatu is fuming with rage to attack Reigns head-on. But here’s where WWE pulled the rug of our thoughts.

If you are a keen-eyed fan, you must have noticed the significantly stone-cold expression of Fatu during Solo Sikoa’s dominant anti-Roman Reigns promo.

Fans spotted Jacob Fatu playing a trick with Solo Sikoa on SmackDown tonight 

Just when Solo Sikoa was busy asserting his dominance and making it known to the Tribal Chief that he was now in control, the camera focused on Fatu’s creepy face as if he was sneakily waiting to sell out. Fans rightfully returned to the old theory of Fatu being Reigns’ representative to spy on Sikoa. 

What’s your perspective on:

Did Jacob Fatu just flip the script on the Bloodline? What does this mean for WWE's future?

Have an interesting take?

Fatu’s folded hands with spine-chilling eyes looked like he was desperately expecting to get some space to inflict more chaos.

The Bloodline has a history of double crosses starting from Jimmy Uso. After some initial cracks within the faction, the younger Uso infamously turned on his Tribal Chief at the Night of Champions 2023. He super-kicked Reigns, allowing the Kevin Owens-Sami Zayn duo to pick up the victory. Shortly after, Jey Uso followed suit and in SummerSlam 2023, the twin brothers also broke up. The latest one on the list was unsurprisingly Solo Sikoa who shamelessly evaded his former lord’s territory. So, fans decoding Jacob Fatu to follow the tradition next seems to be a logical jump at the moment.

Fans disapproved of Solo Sikoa’s stewardship from day 1 of his takeover. They find him too ridiculous to be acknowledged. However, it seems they find the ideal replacement in Jacob Fatu. Thanks to his on-point dressing sense and commendable presence.
