“Been Paying Their Dues”: Roman Reigns’ Cousin Jacob Fatu Elevated by WWE Legend Ahead of His Rumored New Bloodline Debut Alongside Tama Tonga
After Roman Reigns lost the title bout, The Bloodline surprised everyone by adding a new member to the stable. Tama Tonga’s addition was unexpected, even for many fans who had predicted his WWE debut. However, there are speculations that The Bloodline will continue adding new blood to the faction, possibly resulting in a feud in the family itself.
As part of the Samoan wrestling family tree, WWE has many talents to pick from. However, according to WWE veterans, there is one wrestler from the lineage who deserves the next spot in The Bloodline before anyone else.

Having previously worked in the Stamford-based company, Jacob Fatu ultimately left the workplace shortly after his first on-screen interaction with Roman Reigns. Now, there are rumors of his return to WWE alongside the rumors of Zilla Fatu‘s debut in the leading wrestling promotion. After Mark Henry pitched the idea of Zilla joining The Bloodline on the Busted Open podcast, his co-host had other opinions.
Bully Ray presented a counterpoint to Henry and said, “He [Jacob Fatu] is still new and he’s still young. Jacob Fatu and Tama Tonga, they’ve been paying their dues.” The WWE veteran further added, “They got some seasoning under their belt. Zilla still needs to be developed.”
