Legendary wrestling manager Jim Cornette recently opened up about Jacob Fatu's debut on WWE SmackDown last week. He stated that the latter is in good shape and still looks like a monster.
The Samoan Werewolf worked with the former WWE writer back in MLW. Cornette has wanted to see Fatu competing on a bigger stage for a long time, and he's happy to see the latter finally make his WWE debut. Jacob is the newest member of The Bloodline and made an immediate statement by taking out top stars like Randy Orton, Kevin Owens, and Cody Rhodes.
In a recent edition of the Jim Cornette Experience, the former WWE personality praised Jacob Fatu for his new look. Cornette noted that Fatu has lost some weight but still looks big in the ring.
"Now you got two Tongans, you got Solo and you got Jacob Fatu, The Samoan Werewolf. And he's lost weight, he looks in great shape. From 5 years ago in MLW I bet he's lost 40 pounds because he was wide and thick and still doing that stuff but for longevity of his career and his health. The s**t that he does, he needed to lose a little weight. But he plays big... In the ring he looks big. He takes up his space and the facials... He's got the weird multicolored hair. He's got the scraggly facial hair," said Cornette. [From 03:00 to 04:01]
