With Roman Reigns and The Bloodline dominating the WWE product in recent years, fans recently got a taste of another family member's skills in the ring, after Zilla Fatu made his official debut.
The son of the legendary late great Umaga made his official debut at the Reality of Wrestling event, Summer of Champions, this weekend. While he is not signed to WWE, the Texas-based promotion has big connections with the company as the two-time Hall of Famer Booker T is the founder of ROW.
Following his debut match, a photo surfaced on social media of Fatu and the current NXT Superstar Trick Williams, who also competed at the event.
As well as Roman Reigns, Fatu's lineage in the pro wrestling business runs deep, with big names like Rikiski, Yokozuna, The Rock, The Usos, and Peter Maivia all part of his bloodline.
Former WWE manager praises the current direction of The Bloodline
The Anoa'i family, as fans know it, has never been more fractured on-screen as The Usos recently defeated Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa earlier this month at Money In The Bank.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's SmackTalk, former WWE manager Dutch Mantell praised the patience that has been given to The Bloodline storyline, allowing it to truly flourish.
"Doing a good job because if you got my attention, you gotta be something. And this is why nothing else in wrestling gets my attention, but The Bloodline does. So they are doing something right. They are not following my advice, but you've heard me saying this time and time again, have patience. Tell a good story, and the people will go with you," said Dutch Mantell.
