Jacob Fatu is in a dangerous situation following the changed Bloodline power balance by Solo Sikoa which has turned the tide in favor of his cousin on many occasions. The most recent was at Night of Champions on June 28, where Solo regained the United States Championship by pinning Fatu, with the assistance of JC Mateo, Tonga Loa, and a debuting Tala Tonga--formerly Hikuleo, who had left Jacob outnumbered. Rumours are now flying that yet another ally of Bloodline might join in with Samoan Werewolf and give his chances against enhanced side of Solo a boost.
When Solo lost the title, he openly dumped Fatu, referring to him as a dead weight and doubting his commitment. The isolation of his revealed an unbalanced balance of power between the Bloodline: on one hand Solo and his collected group; on the other Fatu in and of herself. However, conspiracy grew as a backstage video of SmackDown depicted a serious scene, in which he came to the rescue of Jimmy Uso against the interference of Solo, hinting at the revival of an old partnership with the older Uso.
Jimmy Uso or a Fresh Bloodline Path?
There are speculations among fans and insiders that Jimmy Uso may take up role of the new wingman of Fatu. During the SmackDown, the older Uso gave a Superkick to Solo after breaking a sneak attack on him, possibly indicating a future collaboration. As Jimmy doubled his dedication to him, the two of them could stage a combined attack on Solo stronghold.
But the mystery does not end at that. A new possible ally appears: Zilla, son of Umaga and Jacob's junior cousin. He has been making noise in the social media, saying that he is just a phone call away from joining the WWE mire. The rising star power and family connection of Zilla makes him a high-impact wildcard to this blood feud. An actual family partnership between youth and heritage would put him in a position of long-term benefit.
