#DIY recently won the WWE Tag Team Championships by defeating A-Town Down Under. On tonight's episode of WWE SmackDown, #DIY successfully defended the titles. After their win, Jacob Fatu came out and began brutally attacking the duo.
Shortly after, Rikishi took to his Instagram stories and shared WWE's clip of Fatu's attack on #DIY.
Fatu recently made his WWE debut and took out Randy Orton, Kevin Owens, and Cody Rhodes all by himself. At Money in the Bank, The Bloodline took on the trio and picked up a big win over them.
Many fans believe that Fatu possesses more charisma and is a better in-ring worker than the current Tribal Chief, Solo Sikoa. It won't be a surprise if WWE heavily pushes Fatu in the near future and gives him a main event run very soon.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
