"I'll knock your a** out" - Current Champion teases match against Jacob Fatu on SmackDown
Jacob Fatu has been the most impressive member of The Bloodline this year - with many believing that he has already overshadowed Solo Sikoa, while others think it's only a matter of time before that happens. Tonight on SmackDown, Jacob Fatu was confronted by a current Champion, who teased a match against him.
Solo Sikoa and The Bloodline opened SmackDown this week, making one message clear - there is a place for Roman Reigns, and the beatdowns will stop if he can acknowledge Solo as his Tribal Chief. Out of nowhere, Intercontinental Champion "Main Event" Jey Uso appeared to a huge pop. For those unaware, Jey rejected two attempts at reconciliation from his brother Jimmy Uso this past week on RAW.
While the segment was about Jey Uso telling Solo Sikoa not to attempt to divide the family, there was a moment when Jey looked at Jacob Fatu and threatened to knock him out, teasing a future match between the two.
"I'll knock your a** out," Jey said.
It was an epic moment that got a big pop. The Bloodline didn't attempt to attack Jey and they let him go freely - with Jey making it clear that the next time they met, things would be different.
Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso arrived after the following match and crossed paths with Jey Uso.
What played out following that was interesting.
