Zilla Fatu may finally be on his way to WWE, and it sounds like things are moving fast.
According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Zilla Fatu is expected to start with WWE soon. That is a major update after previous reports stated WWE was planning to sign him, assuming the deal was not already done.
Zilla is the 26-year-old son of the late Umaga, so this is not just any new WWE signing. His arrival would bring another member of one of wrestling’s most famous families into the company at a time when The Bloodline is still a major part of WWE television.
WWE already has Roman Reigns, Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Solo Sikoa, and Jacob Fatu in the mix. Adding Zilla gives the company another obvious piece to use whenever they decide the time is right. Zilla has spent time building his name outside WWE, including work with House of Glory and Reality of Wrestling. Now, it looks like his next chapter is about to begin on a much bigger stage.
The big question is how WWE will introduce him. They could connect him to The Bloodline right away, keep him separate at first, or let him develop before throwing him into that family drama. Either way, Zilla Fatu’s WWE start now appears to be coming soon, and fans will be watching closely the moment he walks through that door.
Do you think WWE should put Zilla Fatu with The Bloodline right away, or let him build his own path first? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
