SummerSlam is finally here, and fans are excited. With multiple titles on the line and a few speculated surprises, this could be the second biggest night for WWE after WrestleMania 40. Roman Reigns could make his return and aid Cody Rhodes in his match, but that is just speculation. However, what isn’t is that Zilla Fatu was spotted in Cleveland with some of the show’s biggest fans.

Big names, including Chris Van Vliet, Santi Zap, Muscle Malcolm, and more, posted images with Fatu on social media. While the location where this photo was taken is unknown, it is clear that all members in the image are headed to SummerSlam.

This sparked the speculation that Fatu may be making his in-ring debut or could be in the audience. While it is unclear whether the new HOG Crown Jewel Champion has signed with the WWE, they could tease him if he’s in the audience. With Roman Reigns rumored to be returning, this would receive a massive pop from fans.

WWE has signed Hikuleo, who will be renamed as Talla Tonga once he debuts. The speculation surrounding Fatu is that he could be joining Jacob Fatu in his efforts to take over The Bloodline 2.0 or side with Reigns. This will leave a space for someone to join Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa.

All eyes for SummerSlam were on the main event featuring Cody Rhodes and Solo Sikoa. Not only was Rhodes’ WWE Undisputed title on the line but there was also speculation that Reigns would make his return. Fans were also expecting Jimmy Uso.  Unfortunately, only one of those things happened.

As far as Zilla Fatu is concerned, Rikishi gave an update on that during his podcast. He mentioned that despite Fatu being impressive in the ring in smaller promotions, he wasn’t quite ready for the big stage like the WWE. Rikishi has been training and mentoring the next line of Samoan wrestlers who could get their big break in the future in WWE.

Unlike most new talent, he also mentioned that the Samoans would get a direct entry into The Bloodline. While now there are two versions of the group, only time will tell which side the new Samoan talent will pick. Since Reigns returned, he is the babyface with the OG Bloodline while Sikoa commands the heel Bloodline 2.0. What do you think about Zilla Fatu showing up? Tell us in the comments.
