Having come up short against Roman Reigns in Tribal Combat at Clash in Italy, Jacob Fatu has become the latest person to acknowledge WWE's OTC.

Yesterday's Raw opened up with Fatu heading to the ring to share a tense moment with Roman and the Usos, with the Samoan Werewolf eventually taking a knee about saying he acknowledged Reigns. The segment ended with all four men pointing to the sky in classic Bloodline fashion.

For Jacob Fatu, it was said ahead of time that he would have to "join" Roman Reigns should he lose against the Tribal Chief at Clash in Italy. Coming up short against Roman for the second time in a matter of weeks, Jacob has gone through with that promise, with the Raw announce team framing it as if Fatu is now very much a part of this latest iteration of the Bloodline.

Previously, Jacob Fatu had been introduced to WWE in June 2024 as a member of Solo Sikoa's version of the Bloodline, becoming part of a faction that would eventually feature Solo, Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, JC Mateo, and Talla Tonga. Of those names, only Sikoa, Tama, and Talla remain, with Loa and Mateo part of WWE's post-WrestleMania 42 round of releases. Fatu would leave that group last summer, and he's spent the past year or so competing as a singles act, most recently losing to World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns at both Clash in Italy and WWE Backlash.
