A real-life Bloodline and Anoa'i family member created controversy for allegedly shoot-fighting an 18-year-old wrestler. Afa Anoa'i Jr., formerly Manu, was in action in Outlaw Pro Wrestling over the weekend.
In 2006, Anoa'i Jr. signed with the WWE where he started competing under WWE's then-developmental platform, Florida Championship Wrestling. He won the FCW Southern Heavyweight Championship while on the brand. Later, he moved up to the main roster where he joined Legacy under Randy Orton's leadership.
A fan footage of Anoa'i Jr. attacking his opponent at Outlaw Pro Wrestling has gone viral on social media. The 40-year-old wrestler took matters into his own hands, attacking his opponent even before the bell had rung. Post-match, he delivered a promo, asking to be acknowledged.

“This is not cosplay. You had some bad advice from some bad f*cking trainers…because I don’t play wrestling…I bled for this sh*t…my family bled for this sh*t for generations. I’m not gonna let some Puerto Rican sh*t put a skirt on and pretend he’s Samoan. Now acknowledge me, the real f*cking Bloodline,” he said. [H/T: ITR Wrestling]

Afa Anoa'i Jr. has expressed interest in teaming up with original Bloodline member Jimmy Uso
Afa Anoa'i Jr. admitted he would love to team up with Jimmy Uso in WWE. In 2023, Jimmy betrayed his brother Jey Uso, leading to The Usos going their separate paths.
In an exclusive conversation with Sportskeeda Wrestling, Anoa'i Jr. said the following:
"I'd love to tag Jimmy along. Let's do it. Shoot, count me in. I'd be down, you know? Waiting for the phone to ring, I guess."
At the Bad Blood Premium Live Event, Jimmy returned to assist Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes against Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu in the main event. However, the original Bloodline members have been heavily outnumbered by Sikoa and his stablemates.
On the SmackDown after Bad Blood, Jimmy and Reigns were taken out by Sikoa, Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa.
