A notable WWE Superstar, Jacob Fatu, has proposed forming a tag team with Roman Reigns, a partnership that has never occurred before. This surprising Roman Reigns tag team pitch has sparked interest among fans and analysts alike.
Jacob Fatu’s WWE Journey and Recent Rivalries
Jacob Fatu made his WWE debut in June 2024 while Roman Reigns, known as The Head of the Table, was sidelined after losing the Undisputed WWE Championship to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania XL. Known as the Samoan Werewolf, Fatu initially allied himself with Solo Sikoa and supported Sikoa’s feud against Reigns. However, about two months ago, Fatu and Sikoa fell out, ending their alliance.
Fatu recently appeared on The Rich Eisen Show, where he was asked if teaming up with Roman Reigns was a possibility. Though he had not previously considered it, the 33-year-old wrestler described the idea as exciting and hinted that he needs assistance to compete against Solo Sikoa’s group, the MFT.
“You know, we just split. But I never even thought about that. But man, bro, that man, that do sound good. Obviously, your boy needs some help right now. I mean, I never thought about that, man, but it will be good. Once again, this comes, it’s the family, baby. Yeah, I mean, that would be a special moment for me,” he said. —Jacob Fatu, WWE Superstar
The Ongoing Battles Impacting Jacob Fatu and Roman Reigns
Jacob Fatu lost the WWE United States Championship to his former ally Solo Sikoa at WWE Night of Champions. This defeat was heavily influenced by interference from Jeff Cobb, the returning Tama Tonga, and Tall Tonga, formerly Hikuleo. Later, at <a href="https://cynicaltimes.org/tag/summerslam/”>SummerSlam, the MFT again assisted Sikoa in defending the title successfully against Fatu in a Steel Cage Match.
Meanwhile, Roman Reigns has been embroiled in a conflict with Seth Rollins and his allies on Monday Night RAW. Reigns and Jey Uso secured a victory over Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed at SummerSlam, but the opposing team retaliated on the following RAW episode. After Rollins’ World Heavyweight Championship bout against LA Knight ended in disqualification due to a CM Punk attack, Reed and Breakker joined forces to assault Seth Rollins and The Miz.
Roman Reigns confronted the attackers and battled fiercely before being overwhelmed by numbers. He was struck with a Stomp, spear, and several Tsunamis. Following this brutal assault, Reigns was noticeably absent from the next week’s RAW episode, leaving fans uncertain about his next move.
What the Potential Tag Team Could Mean for WWE
Jacob Fatu’s proposal for a tag team with Roman Reigns comes at a moment when both superstars face considerable challenges. Reuniting as allies could shift the power dynamics in WWE, especially given their shared heritage and history. Should this alliance form, it may create new opportunities and rivalries, particularly against factions like the MFT and other heel groups currently dominating the scene.
Fans are now eagerly anticipating Roman Reigns’ return to WWE programming, curious whether he will respond to Fatu’s overtures and how this partnership might affect ongoing storylines. The prospect of these two prominent figures joining forces promises to bring fresh energy to the WWE landscape.
