The Reason Jacob Fatu Could Miss Major WWE Shows

Jacob Fatu is now part of WWE after his shock SmackDown debut but it seems there could be hurdles to him making all of the company’s shows.

Solo Sikoa has had his hand firmly gripped around The Bloodline since WrestleMania 40 with Roman Reigns disappearing and Jimmy Uso banished from the group.

Sikoa brought in Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa to reinvigorate The Bloodline and now on SmackDown in Chicago, the group may have made its most dangerous acquisition yet.

Solo Sikoa faced Cody Rhodes in a main event that did not last long before Tonga and Loa interfered causing the disqualification. Kevin Owens and Randy Orton made the save for Rhodes but with Sikoa cornered, it turned out he had a plan all along.

Jacob Fatu appeared and laid out all three men in a brutal and vicious attack as he stood with The Bloodline as the show went off the air.

Jacob Fatu Could Face Hurdles For Major WWE Shows

Fightful Select has noted that Fatu has never wrestled outside of the USA with sources in his previous promotion – MLW – indicating that it was due to Fatu’s criminal record. Fatu was arrested at the age of 18 for a robbery.

That record is seemingly what stopped him from taking bookings outside of the US and it remains uncertain if that situation will change now he’s part of WWE. The company has greatly increased its number of major international shows and Jacob Fatu could miss out on being on them if this hurdle is not overcome.
