Zilla Fatu is the son of the late legend Umaga. He has been signed with Booker T's Reality of Wrestling since 2023, and in such a short span, the real-life Bloodline star has made a huge name for himself by winning several titles. Fatu is also the current HOG Crown Jewel Champion. Many believe Zilla might soon be headed to the Stamford-based promotion and could join The Bloodline on WWE TV.

The ROW star recently took to Instagram to share that he was blessed with his first child. Zilla also mentioned that he named his son after his father, Umaga's real name, honoring the late legend's legacy.

The legend also mentioned that he believed Fatu would make a big impact when he eventually signs with the Stamford-based promotion.

"Zilla Fatu? He's gonna be primed for the WWE when he gets there," Booker T said. "I just talked to him about WWE and making that move, and one thing about this kid, he's not, you know, in a rush or anything to make it. But trust me, when he makes it, he's going to make the biggest impact that you have seen from any young star to come along in this business perhaps in the last 30 years."
