Lexis King just took his beef with Zilla Fatu to a whole new level, and apparently nothing is off-limits. The WWE NXT star dropped a diss track targeting Fatu on October 19, 2026, taking shots at everything from his tattoos and prison past to his late father, Umaga.
King released the music video for a track titled “Zilla Vanilla” on Twitter, complete with an ice cream truck and a catchy chorus mocking his NXT rival. But once you get past the jokes about vanilla ice cream, some of the lyrics get pretty nasty.
The song opens with King questioning Fatu’s tough-guy image before repeatedly calling him soft. Then things get personal when King brings up their famous wrestling fathers. Fatu is the son of the late Umaga, while King is the son of Brian Pillman.
“Zilla vanilla? You soft as a pillar. Your pops was a G, but my dad had the trigger?”
King didn’t stop there. He also went after Fatu’s criminal history, making a particularly nasty joke about the six years Fatu spent behind bars.
“But who were we kidding? This kid got him in prison? Six years in the pen and the soap kept on slipping?”
And if mocking his family and prison past wasn’t enough, King also found time to take shots at Fatu’s tattoos and his luck with women, even dragging Arianna Grace into the insults.
“Your tattoos are tripping? You got no self respect? It looks like some children drew it on at your sketch?”
King then followed that up with another jab about Fatu’s interactions with women.
“You stay missing with women like you running in place. Last time you touched a girl, you got smacked by Grace.”
The song also references Fatu’s injured hand, which ties directly into their ongoing WWE NXT storyline. King and the rest of BirthRight have been making Fatu’s life miserable ever since he refused to join their faction.
As Ringside News previously covered, the trouble started when BirthRight tried recruiting Fatu on the September 1 episode of NXT. Fatu wasn’t interested and made that clear by superkicking King in the face. Things got uglier the following week when BirthRight attacked Fatu and put him through a table after he rejected another invitation to join the group.
The rivalry eventually led to a singles match on October 6, where Fatu defeated King despite interference from BirthRight. However, King and his crew got the last laugh after the match when they attacked Fatu and slammed the steel ring steps onto his arm. King made sure to reference that attack in his new song, taking credit for what happened to Fatu’s hand while throwing in another crude joke.
“And I know why? Cause we busted your hand. And speaking of busting, that won’t be in your plans.”
The music video itself takes a much lighter approach than some of the lyrics, with King performing in front of an ice cream truck while people dance around him. He even renamed his rival “Zilla Vanilla” and repeatedly mocked him for being soft.
What’s pretty wild is how personal King decided to make this. Their feud started because Fatu wouldn’t join BirthRight, but now King is dragging dead relatives, prison time, and sexual jokes into a wrestling rivalry. He clearly isn’t interested in keeping things strictly about what happens inside the ring.
For now, Fatu hasn’t responded to the track, but considering he already beat King once and got jumped by BirthRight afterward, he has plenty of reasons to want another shot at him. King might be having fun making music videos, but he’s also giving Fatu a whole lot more ammunition for their next confrontation.
