Real-life Bloodline member predicts blockbuster feud for Jacob Fatu against major WWE name
The Bloodline's Jacob Fatu has been a force to reckon with on WWE SmackDown. Meanwhile, Rikishi predicted a blockbuster feud for The Samoan Werewolf against Jimmy Uso.
Earlier this year, Jacob Fatu made his monstrous debut in the Stamford-based promotion against a few notable names from Friday Night SmackDown. The Samoan Werewolf has remained a loyal enforcer for Solo Sikoa and The Bloodline.
Speaking on his Fatu Off The Top podcast, Rikishi said he would like to see a major feud between Fatu and Jimmy Uso. The feud will allow both names to grow as individual performers in the company.
"The guy that I would like to see him have his first run would be Jacob [Fatu]. I feel that this could be a good test for Jacob, and at the same time, the two boys that were raised together underneath the same roof can also make their memories together. Jimmy got his memory together already and made history with his brother. How cool would that be to go down with your cousin on a big PPV? I would like to see like a Hell in a Cell type of vibe against those two... I feel that Jimmy can have a good run; a safe bet would be Jacob Fatu," Rikisih said. (From 16:28 to 17:36)

The Bloodline's Jacob Fatu gave up his title on WWE SmackDown
Earlier this year, Jacob Fatu signed with the Stamford-based company and joined The Bloodline under Solo Sikoa's leadership. Later, he decimated Randy Orton, Kevin Owens, and Cody Rhodes on The Tribal Chief's order.
Later, The Tribal Chief ordered his followers to win the WWE Tag Team Championships from #DIY. In the coming weeks, Tama Tonga and Jacob Fatu became the new champions and ruled the tag team division on Friday Night SmackDown.
However, the dream run ended when Sikoa asked Fatu to give up his title to Tonga Loa. Without hesitation, The Samoan Werewolf resumed his duties as the enforcer and gave the title to Loa. Recently, Tonga and Loa lost the WWE Tag Team Championships to the Motor City Machine Guns.
