Jacob Fatu is arguably a future WWE main-eventer. He belongs to the famous Anoaʻi wrestling family, which includes popular names such as Roman Reigns, The Rock, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, and more. He has also held the WWE Tag Team Championship once with Tama Tonga.
The Samoan Werewolf is quite adored globally. Even though he is a ruthless heel, fans and veterans agree that he has immense in-ring talent. One of his well-wishers is AEW star MVP. The former WWE United States Champion is a member of the Hurt Syndicate faction, which, apart from him, consists of AEW World Tag Team Champions Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin.
Although the 51-year-old does not wrestle in All Elite Wrestling, he is sporadically seen taking part in in-ring competition on the independent circuit. He recently performed for a promotion called Big Time Wrestling, where, after his match, he name-dropped AEW stars Samoa Joe and Bryan Danielson (fka Daniel Bryan). Surprisingly, he even name-dropped Jacob Fatu.
