Potential WWE Bloodline member appears to depart House of Glory

Zilla Fatu in HOG Wrestling

Bloodline alert: another member of pro wrestling’s biggest family may soon be appearing on WWE television. 

Zilla Fatu, son of the late Umaga, lost his HOG Crown Jewel Championship to Amazing Red at HOG: High Intensity in Jamaica, New York. Afterwards, both Red and the announcers indicated that Fatu would be leaving the promotion. 

Red got the win after hitting a code red off the top rope, followed by a pair of frog splashes. Afterwards, as the crowd chanted “Thank you Zilla,” Red cut a promo. 

“I’m usually on the other side of stuff like this,” Red said. “Zilla, real simple: good luck.” 

“The best is yet to come for Zilla Fatu,” the announcers added. 

Fatu then shook Red’s hand and bowed to him. “Greener pastures, bigger stages await Zilla Fatu,” the announcers said. They also guaranteed “a lot of success in that young man’s future.”

Fatu has many relatives who are already working in WWE. He is first cousins with Jimmy and Jey Uso and Solo Sikoa (who are all sons of Rikishi), as well as Jacob Fatu (son of Tama from the Islanders). Roman Reigns is also in the family tree—his father, Sika, was an uncle to Umaga, Rikishi, and Tama.

Zilla Fatu was reportedly spotted at the WWE Performance Center in June

Fatu originally won the HOG Crown Jewel Championship in July of 2024, defeating Carlos Ramirez for the title. Save for a month last summer when he lost it to and regained it from Bully Ray, he had been champion ever since.
