“Take yo a** to the back,” Former World Champion issues a stern warning to Jacob Fatu after Royal Rumble confrontation
The Monster Among Men isn't finished with Jacob Fatu and his remarks of the latter speak volumes of it.

This year’s 30-man Royal Rumble match showcased a blend of interpersonal feuds intertwined in such a big capacity. One of the most anticipated confrontations included Braun Strowman bumping into Jacob Fatu. The latter was dominating the field with four eliminations under his belt. However, after Strowman got in, he dumped Fatu over the top rope.
Doubling down on The Samoan Werewolf, Braun took to X. He simply wrote, “Take yo a** to the back!!!!” By the looks of it, their beef isn’t over. These behemoths got into the ring with each other at Saturday Night’s Main Event. After the match ended in a no contest, Jacob went unhinged. He drilled Strowman’s face into every corner of the ring, causing the former Universal Champion to bleed.
The Anoa’i clan member wasn’t done. Even after the WWE officials intervened, the former NWA Champion kept battering The Monster of All Monsters. The fans in attendance were chanting Fatu’s name despite his diabolical beatdown of Strowman, evincing an uptick in Jacob’s burgeoning popularity.
Later, via a post on X, Braun, being the bloody mess he was relegated to, outright said Fatu should’ve killed him while he was at it. There seems to be a chance that both of them may tee off once again. But it could be a proper slugfest this time around. With Elimination Chamber approaching, the fans may expect something between the two at the Vancouver-hosted WWE PLE.
If not then, one might sniff a slight possibility of getting more heat into this feud before its culmination at WrestleMania 41. However, that could be a long shot. Especially if WWE is planning to have Fatu turn on Solo Sikoa in the weeks to come, leading to a showdown in Las Vegas.
Jacob Fatu crossed paths with Roman Reigns at Royal Rumble
As mentioned above, the men’s Rumble played host to a number of epic faceoffs. On Saturday, the Lucas Oil Stadium came unglued when Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu stood face-to-face.
Even though it didn’t last long, WWE certainly teased it as a big-time feud that they’ll probably revisit down the road. When Fatu debuted in WWE last June, he rose up the ranks in no time. Even though he served under the tutelage of Solo Sikoa for the most part, the company had trepidations that Jacob’s all-round shtick would outshine Solo. And it did.
While Jacob might end up in the crosshairs of Sikoa first, the fans know where the money lies—Fatu’s showdown with Roman Reigns. However, that doesn’t seem to be happening anytime soon.
