Having already generated quite the buzz for himself in the past few weeks and months, WWE rookie Keanu Carver has now claimed that one notable main roster name who's scared of him is none other than Jacob Fatu.

In a since-deleted X post, Carver responded to a fan asking for his thoughts on Fatu. To that, the powerhouse prospect said, "Heard he got a problem w me but he ain't say nun to me = he scared of me, yall figure out what yall think tho".

That post was one of several made yesterday by Keanu Carver in his return to X. Previously, he'd deleted his X account earlier this month following comments about the most recent round of WWE releases and about "mfs" who are "d***eating" the "Samoan mfs" who vote for Donald Trump - seemingly a reference to a Roman Reigns interview with Vanity Fair where the Tribal Chief revealed he'd once voted for Trump for US President.

For those maybe not too familiar with Keanu Carver, he's a 6'2", 290 lbs former college football player who signed with WWE in 2023. While he made his TV debut as part of that year's NXT Breakout Tournament - losing to Riley Osborne in the first round - he's more recently been a featured player in EVOLVE, where he operates as a dominant heel.

Carver's EVOLVE gimmick is that he's a tough street fighter, which he may be leaning into in this X activity. Still, taking shots at Jacob Fatu, Roman Reigns, and the President of the United States might not be the smartest move for someone with just 19 matches under their belt - particularly with how WWE and TKO regularly show support for President Trump.

In case you were wondering, Jacob Fatu has not made any sort of social media response to any of the aforementioned Keanu Carver comments as of this writing.
