WWE made sure Jacob Fatu’s wild F-bomb didn’t reach television uncensored. When the August 31, 2026 episode of WWE RAW aired, the company bleeped Fatu’s NSFW outburst from the taped segment.
Fatu hit the scene after The Usos started brawling with Royce Keys and OTM. He stormed out with a weapon, helped chase Keys and OTM away and then climbed onto the announce table to fire up the crowd. That’s when Fatu got a little too comfortable with the live audience. He grabbed a microphone and screamed one word WWE clearly wasn’t letting through untouched, “Motherfcker!”*
Fatu’s microphone was cut immediately at the taping, but he kept yelling while the crowd erupted. Since WWE had the footage in advance, there was never much chance the profanity would make it onto RAW without being cleaned up.
When the segment aired, WWE placed a bleep over the F-bomb and kept the rest of the moment intact. The company also appeared to shorten the segment, cutting down some of Fatu’s time on the announce table. Viewers still got Fatu losing his mind—they just didn’t see or hear everything the crowd got inside the building.
The censorship and shorter edit took some of the punch out of the segment, especially for viewers who had already seen clips from the taping. Many fans on social media were hoping WWE would air Fatu’s outburst unedited, but the broadcast version didn’t hit nearly as hard with the profanity bleeped and part of the moment trimmed down.
