Roman Reigns’ Bloodline has been dismantled in WWE, but the family’s legacy in the wrestling business is not seemingly coming to a halt. Another member of the legendary Samoan family has chosen professional wrestling as his career by making his debut in the Reality of Wrestling promotion. Zilla Fatu, the son of late WWE superstar Umaga, has stepped into the squared circle via Booker T’s wrestling promotion.

It was reported earlier that Zilla Fatu has been signed with the Reality of Wrestling promotion and has been training for it. His debut came at the Summer of Champions event of ROW, where he emerged victorious. His victory was secured with his Samoan Spike finisher, with which he paid tribute to his late father, Umaga.

It was advertised earlier that his debut was scheduled for the event in Texas a few weeks ago. The Texas-based wrestling school had signed Fatu back in December 2022 and was training him for the professional environment of wrestling. The 23-year-old wrestler’s future looks bright, as his debut has already put him in the news as the next star for The Bloodline to sustain in their family business.

Zilla has a dark background because of the six years that he spent in a juvenile prison. After a tough experience in adverse conditions, Fatu will seem to redeem himself by indulging himself in the wrestling world. His coming career will be note-worthy, knowing his history and the unknowing of his performance in the wrestling ring.

The Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns, has been the face of the company for three years now. Reigns’ Universal Championship win back in 2020 came as a result of his heel turn. While the WWE Championship came in as an addition to his success after defeating Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 38.

But ever since he has held those championships, his reign has been interesting, with fewer title defenses. His Tribal Chief gimmick has been loved by everyone and has unleashed the real heel nature that he wished for earlier in his career. But amidst his successful and long-running reign, the only negative are those defenses.

Considering this year, Reigns has not defended his title since his clash against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 39 on television. His previous title defenses came against Kevin Owens at Royal Rumble and Sami Zayn at Elimination Chamber. While his next title defense is rumored to be against Jey Uso at SummerSlam.
