Jacob Fatu broke WWE Superstar's two ribs in SmackDown attack

A top WWE Superstar has announced that he has suffered two broken ribs following Jacob Fatu's vicious attack on last night's edition of SmackDown. The name in question is Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes.

On last night's SmackDown, Solo Sikoa was mere seconds away from being assaulted by Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes, and Kevin Owens. However, Fatu made his surprise debut and helped Sikoa by putting down the babyface trio. He even hit a big splash on Rhodes after placing him on the announce desk.

Tonight, Cody Rhodes defeated Shinsuke Nakamura in a title match at a live event. After the contest, the 38-year-old announced that he had suffered two broken ribs. Judging by the fact that The American Nightmare competed in a full-fledged match against Nakamura, it looks like the injury is part of the storyline.

Jacob Fatu was unstoppable on last night's SmackDown. Many fans believe that he immediately outshined Solo Sikoa upon his WWE debut. The Samoan Werewolf was one of the most popular wrestlers on the independent circuit before he joined the global juggernaut. Hence, viewers are excited to see what he does next in the coming weeks.

As for Rhodes' "injury," only time will tell whether it is real or he's simply keeping kayfabe alive.
