What exactly did Jacob Fatu say about his time in jail?
Two years ago, an all-access interview featuring Fatu was posted on MLW's YouTube channel. He revealed that he never intended to become a wrestler growing up. It all changed when he saw The Usos on TV while he was in jail.
Check out his full comments below:
"I really didn't grow up wanting to wrestle. I didn't want to wrestle at all until the day I caught my case for the 211 when I was 18. I was locked down, went to jail for some crazy reason. Every dorm has a TV. It's just so happened to be flipping through the channels right? Who comes on my brothers, The Usos, man Jimmy and Jey coming on and I will never forget it. They came out with Tamina [Snuka] and they was wrestling against Tyson Kidd, another former MLW Superstar Davey Boy Smith, and Natalya." [H/T Fightful]
Jacob Fatu possesses insane charisma and has already impressed the WWE Universe with his work following the events of SmackDown. Only time will tell what more is in store for him on WWE television in the coming months.
