"Babe, wake up, new Bloodline member dropped"- WWE Universe reacts as Umaga's 22-year-old son kicks off wrestling career
One of the biggest stories in wrestling today has been regarding Umaga's youngest son beginning his wrestling training. As we reported earlier, Zilla Fatu has joined Booker's T's wrestling school and hopes to correct the wrongs of his troubled past.
Zilla Fatu belongs to the famed AnoaΚ»i family that has given WWE one of its most successful superstars in recent times, Roman Reigns. The Tribal Chief is currently at the top of his game as the leader of The Bloodline, which also features The Usos, Solo Sikoa, and honorary member Sami Zayn.
Due to his Samoan lineage, Zilla has predictably emerged as a future Bloodline member in the fans' eyes. The WWE Universe didn't waste time admitting to the possibility of Umaga's son joining the Roman Reigns-led faction in the coming years.
While it's too soon to predict how Zilla Fatu's career might go, wrestling Twitter seems convinced about the 22-year-old star's chances of becoming a Bloodline member once he gets familiar with the business under the watchful eyes of Booker T.
We've compiled some of the best reactions to the arrival of another potential Bloodline member, as you can view below:
A few wrestling stars also reacted to Zilla Fatu's entry into professional wrestling, including former MLW Champion Jacob Fatu, who welcomed his Samoan cousin to the industry.

Solo Sikoa grabbed all the headlines recently with his tribute to Umaga
The latest episode of RAW featured a fantastic tribute to the late great Samoan superstar, courtesy of Solo Sikoa. The newest addition to The Bloodline has regularly been compared to Umaga, and he showcased exactly why by delivering the former Intercontinental Champion's most memorable moves.
After helping The Usos retain their tag team titles, Solo Sikoa unleashed a vicious attack on Matt Riddle by hitting the Samoan Spike and a Samoan Wrecking Ball on the Original Bro.
Solo even took to Twitter after the show and once again remembered Umaga, who sadly passed away in 2009 at the age of 36. The Samoan Bulldozer's premature death hasn't impacted his legacy by the looks of it, as he is still a popular name in wrestling circles.
