Las Vegas – Jacob Fatu proved that he was an unstoppable force on Saturday night in the first WrestleMania match of his career and he couldn’t even get close to stopping him.
Fatu carried La Knight to the top rope, completing two moonzoos and struck a giant Samoa drop before pinning the knight and becoming the new American champion.

Fatu arrives in a circle where Solosikoa is firmly squared at his corner. Fatu removed the werewolf’s mask and distorted it all the way to the ring. The night entered the stadium. We stopped by Maserati before the music hit.
The Knight tried to outdo Fatu. Fatu was in the driver’s seat and looked to go for the Moons early in the game. Knight hit his own finishing maneuver, BFT, and was seen from nowhere. Did the Knight intend to bring out victory? Ref’s hand came down for a 3 count, which is about the same as Fatu kicked out.

Fatu regained control of the match and was able to add some gold to his hips.
“Samoan Wolf” was raised to the WWE scene in June when Sikore took over the pedigree. He became the fierce enforcer behind Cicor and they began to thorn on the other Smackdown rosters.
However, Fatu has plunged into the pursuit of the US Championship. He took Brown Strowman to the top and scored a shot in the Knight title.
