What are the reported plans made by WWE for Jacob Fatu for WrestleMania 41?
During a recent episode of Live Q&A on Backstage Pass, WrestleVotes reported that Jacob Fatu is slated to face his cousin and former Tribal Chief Solo Sikoa at WrestleMania 41. Early rumors were that Solo Sikoa might face Roman Reigns in a rematch at the event. However, WWE might now be planning a match between teacher and student in April.
Last week, tensions were witnessed between Solo and Jacob Fatu during a backstage segment. Things escalated in the main event Elimination Chamber qualifier match. Towards the final moments of the bout, Sikoa interfered on Fatu’s behalf. However, things got chaotic and Fatu ended up on the losing side of the match.
If the rumor ends up being true, a match between Jacob Fatu and Solo Sikoa at WrestleMania 41 would be a blockbuster showdown between two dominant Samoans.
