Jacob Fatu Reveals He Doesn’t Know What’s Next For Him After WWE Backlash Win

WWE’s 2025 Backlash event went down in Saint Louis’ Enterprise Arena. This was a big night for the company, and it led fans to wonder what’s next.

Jeff Cobb showed up to help Jacob Fatu retain the United States Title during the premium live event. This was a surprise for Fatu, as he looked very shocked.

During the press conference after Backlash, Jacob Fatu said that we will have to see how this situation plays out with Jeff Cobb. He saw things as fans did, as he stuck to the story that he was unaware.

When asked about what is next for him, Jacob Fatu was very blunt. He simply told fans to stay tuned, because there was no telling what is next for the Samoan Werewolf.

“What’s next is just what I said earlier. It’s just day at a time with it. I didn’t come in aiming for this [US Title], it just happened organically. But, honestly, there’s no telling. Gentleman here asked what happened tonight. I’m gonna tell y’all the same thing. You’ll have to wait and see, because I can’t speak on it if I don’t know nothing about it. It’s been a helluva ride, but I’m just like what you guys are seeing right now. We’re just gonna have to see how it all rides out at the end of the day.”

Jacob Fatu went on to say that his whole life has been a speed bump. That is why he’s all gas, no brakes. He is going to keep bringing intensity to everything he touches, and he will keep going as he fits into WWE’s plan.

We will have to see what is next for Jacob Fatu. At the end of the day, he is still United States Champion, no matter how it all went down.
