Jacob Fatu had reportedly signed with WWE back during the WrestleMania week. Despite having signed with the company so long ago, the Samoan wrestler still didn’t make his debut until Friday Night SmackDown on 06/21. The electrifying debut caught everyone’s attention, including former Bloodline member Jey Uso. All fans are aware that Jey Uso was not happy with his tenure in The Bloodline.
The betrayals hurt him enough to cause him to leave the family stable altogether and start his character anew. However, the “Main Event” star still watches his old faction wrestle as he recently showed support for Jacob Fatu’s debut.

Chicago experienced a surprise ending to the blue brand show last night. Not only were the viewers shocked to see “The Werewolf” show up, but his own family members seemed to have been unaware of the situation. This is probably why the viewers saw Jey Uso reacting to the SmackDown highlight on his social media. The former Bloodline member took a screenshot of his cousin, uploaded it on his Instagram story, and gave a one-emoji message by inserting “👀” on top of the image.
Ever since he walked out of SmackDown and the rest of The Bloodline, Jey Uso has not been very accepting of the family stable and the anarchy that it puts up. Now that they have been breaching all boundaries on WWE under Solo Sikoa‘s rule, Jey Uso would understandably like to keep his distance and not make any contact with them.

Despite what went down between Jey Uso and The Bloodline, the former member still seemed to have welcomed his cousin as the latest member. Uso is probably excited to see where his cousin’s character is headed.
What direction will WWE take with Jacob Fatu?
Solo Sikoa was in trouble during the main event of the night against Cody Rhodes. While getting a beatdown, he was aided by the rest of The Bloodline, but that proved to be in vain, as Rhodes also had a couple of friends at his disposal. However, Sikoa pulled out his trump card, which turned out to be Jacob Fatu. The ex-GCW wrestler charged at everyone during his debut and laid waste to all the enemies in the arena.

For some reason, the announcers called him “The Werewolf” while a wolf could also be seen on the tank top that Fatu was wearing. This seems to hold significance in his character moving forward as the same merch is up on the WWE shop, hinting at the fact that this gimmick may be what they could carry into the future for Jacob Fatu’s run in The Bloodline.
