As a professional wrestler, Jacob Fatu made a significant mark on Major League Wrestling and the independent wrestling circuit. Part of the renowned Anoa’i family, Fatu, has proven to be a standout talent in his own right. Known for his impressive agility and power, he is especially remarkable given his wingspan. And it wasn’t just his cousin who was impressed by the new superstar, as veteran Rob Van Dam too sang praises for the Anoa’i.

Fatu’s quality has been praised by many, and the list also includes Rob Vam Dam. The legendary high flyer revealed his first-person experience on his podcast, 1 of a Kind. “Yes, I have. He’s very good. I was very impressed with him. I saw him in LA at PCW, Pacific Coast Wrestling. I was there, and I was very impressed with him. For being a big dude, I like the way that he does the double-jump springboard moonsault, and that just stuck out in my mind. Obviously, he does a lot more than that, and he’s a really good wrestler. He’s been around for a while, making a lot of noise.”

In recent days, it has been reported that WWE’s creative team has some fear that Fatu’s presence will overshadow Solo Sikoa, who has been portrayed as a dominant figure recently. Undoubtedly, it is only a matter of time before he debuts with the company, as he has been under contract since April. What do you think? Are you excited to see his debut? Let us know in the comments.
