Well, folks, it finally happened! The long-awaited debut of Jacob Fatu, the latest and greatest member of The Bloodline, sent shockwaves through the WWE Universe on Friday night’s SmackDown. And let me tell you, it was bigger than a Kardashian family reunion, minus the drama but plus some seriously impressive wrestling moves.
As the main event came to a close, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes found himself in a rather unfortunate situation, courtesy of Mr. Fatu himself. After the bell rang, Solo Sikoa squared off against Rhodes without his Bloodline backup. Or so we thought! In a plot twist that could rival any soap opera, Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa crashed the party, causing a disqualification and setting the stage for some major mayhem.
Enter Randy Orton and Kevin Owens, sprinting down the ramp like they were late for the all-you-can-eat buffet at Golden Corral. The trio had Sikoa cornered, and just as Sikoa started to beg for mercy with a grin wider than the Grand Canyon, Jacob Fatu made his grand entrance. Sneaking up like a ninja with a vendetta, Fatu took out Orton and Owens faster than you can say, “Where’s the remote?”
Rhodes, bless his heart, was then subjected to a beatdown that can only be described as epic. Fatu, channeling his inner acrobat, launched himself from the top rope and sent Rhodes crashing through the announce desk with a splash that would make a cannonball at the neighborhood pool look like a mere ripple. It was a move so electrifying that even The Rock would’ve approved.
With the carnage complete, Fatu joined his cousin Sikoa in the ring for a heartfelt embrace, bringing a tear to the eye of every wrestling fan out there. Not to be left out, Tonga and Loa joined the family reunion, and the foursome raised their “ones” high as SmackDown faded to black. Cue the dramatic music and the standing ovation from living rooms across America.
For those keeping score at home, Fatu’s WWE debut was no small potatoes. The former Major League Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion had been a free agent for much of 2024, finally sealing the deal with WWE over WrestleMania 40 weekend back in April. And boy, did he make his first night count!
