Joseph Yokozuna Fatu (born March 18, 1993) is an American professional wrestler. He is signed to WWE, where he performs on the SmackDown brand under the ring name Solo Sikoa as the leader of The Bloodline.

Contents

After Fatu played college football at American River College in Sacramento, he began his professional wrestling career in 2018 under the ring name Sefa Fatu on the independent circuit. He then signed with WWE in 2021 and was assigned to the NXT brand as Solo Sikoa before being called up to the main roster a year later, debuting at Clash at the Castle. He joined The Bloodline stable at first as a silent enforcer, then was repackaged as the self-proclaimed "Tribal Chief". In the WWE, he held the NXT North American Championship once.

As the son of Rikishi and brother of Jonathan and Joshua, Fatu is a member of the Anoaʻi family of Samoan wrestlers.

Early life

Fatu was born into the Anoaʻi family of Samoan wrestlers, which includes his father Rikishi and older brothers Jonathan and Joshua. [3] He is named after his first cousin once removed's in-ring name, Yokozuna. [3] He played American football at American River College in Sacramento and Dickinson State University in Dickinson, North Dakota. [4] [5]

Professional wrestling career

Independent circuit (2018–2021)

On April 29, 2018, Fatu made his in-ring debut under the ring name Sefa Fatu and regularly teamed up with his cousins, Jacob and Journey Fatu. [6] On January 25, 2019, Fatu would win the FSW Nevada State Championship, holding the belt for 149 days until losing to Hammerstone in June. [7] In August 2019, Fatu defeated Watson to win the Arizona Wrestling Federation (AWF) heavyweight title, which he held for 418 days until losing it in January 2021. [8]

WWE (2021–present)

NXT (2021–2022)

On August 30, 2021, it was announced that Fatu signed a contract with WWE. [9] He was assigned to their development brand NXT, making his debut on October 26 at Halloween Havoc under the ring name Solo Sikoa, where he interrupted a segment between co-hosts Grayson Waller and LA Knight before attacking Waller. [10] Sikoa made his in-ring debut on the November 2 episode of NXT, defeating Jeet Rama. [11] In December, Sikoa began a feud with Boa after his alter-ego attacked and choked him backstage, leading to a match on the January 11, 2022 episode of NXT, where Boa and Sikoa fought to a double countout. [12] [13] On the January 25 episode of NXT, Sikoa defeated Boa in a No Disqualification Falls Count Anywhere match. [14] On the March 1 episode of NXT, Sikoa suffered his first loss in NXT against Gunther, ending his undefeated streak. [15]

Sikoa defeated Roderick Strong on the March 22 episode of NXT to qualify for a five-way ladder match for the NXT North American Championship at the Stand & Deliver pay-per-view on April 2, which was won by Cameron Grimes. [16] [17] He faced Grimes for the title on the April 12 episode of NXT and in a triple threat match involving Carmelo Hayes at Spring Breakin' on May 3, but was unsuccessful. [18] [19] After weeks of brawling between Sikoa and Von Wagner, they faced off in a Falls Count Anywhere match on the August 2 episode of NXT, which Sikoa won, [20] [21] suffering a knee injury in the process. [22]

The Enforcer of the Bloodline (2022–2024)

At Clash at the Castle on September 3, 2022, Sikoa returned from injury and interfered in the main event match between his cousin Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre, helping Reigns retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship and aligning himself with The Bloodline, turning heel in the process. [23] He made his main roster in-ring debut against McIntyre on the September 9 episode of SmackDown , losing by disqualification after Karrion Kross attacked McIntyre. [24] On the September 13 episode of NXT 2.0, Sikoa made a surprise appearance and defeated Carmelo Hayes to win the NXT North American Championship. [25] He retained the title three nights later at SmackDown against Madcap Moss, [26] but was forced to vacate it on the September 20 episode of NXT. [27] At Survivor Series: WarGames on November 26, Sikoa and The Bloodline defeated The Brawling Brutes (Sheamus, Ridge Holland and Butch), McIntyre, and Kevin Owens in a WarGames match. [28] Sikoa suffered his first pinfall loss on the main roster against Cody Rhodes on the March 27, 2023 episode of Raw . [29] On Night 2 of WrestleMania 39 on April 2, Sikoa assisted Reigns to retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Rhodes in the main event. [30] On May 6, at Backlash, Sikoa and The Usos defeated Owens, Sami Zayn and Matt Riddle in a six-man tag team match. [31]

At Night of Champions on May 27, Sikoa and Reigns challenged Owens and Zayn for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship in a losing effort. During the match, The Usos interfered and accidentally attacked Sikoa while aiming for Zayn, causing Jimmy Uso to attack Reigns and The Usos to walk away from The Bloodline. [32] On the June 2 episode of SmackDown, during Reigns' celebration of 1,000 days as Universal Champion, Sikoa turned on Jimmy and excommunicated him from The Bloodline on Reigns' order for his brother's actions. [33] On the June 16 episode of SmackDown, Sikoa's other brother, Jey, turned on Reigns and Sikoa to side with Jimmy. [34] At Money in the Bank on July 1, Reigns and Sikoa lost to The Usos in a "Bloodline Civil War" tag team match after Jey pinned Reigns. [35]

Sikoa and Jimmy, who had rejoined the stable, would enter a feud with a returning John Cena and AJ Styles in September. A tag team match was set between them against Cena and Styles for Fastlane, however, Styles was removed from the match after a backstage attack by Sikoa, and he was replaced by LA Knight. [36] [37] [38] At Fastlane on October 7, Sikoa and Jimmy lost to Cena and Knight. [39] On the October 20 episode of SmackDown, Cena teased retirement before calling out anyone to face him, leading to Sikoa coming out and brawling with Cena, setting up a match between the two at Crown Jewel on November 4, [40] where Sikoa defeated Cena after nine Samoan Spikes. [41] On Night 2 of WrestleMania XL on April 7, Sikoa attempted to assist Reigns against Rhodes again, only to be thwarted by a returning Cena, who delivered an Attitude Adjustment to Sikoa through the announce table. [42]

The self-appointed "Tribal Chief" (2024–present)

In the absence of Reigns, Sikoa started a storyline where he appointed himself as the de facto leader of The Bloodline, exiling Jimmy Uso and recruiting Tama Tonga as his right-hand man, much to the fear and confusion of Paul Heyman. [43] [44] At Backlash France on May 4, Sikoa and Tonga defeated Randy Orton and Kevin Owens in a Tag Team Street Fight with the help of the returning Tonga Loa, who joined the Bloodline. [45] On June 15, Sikoa began a feud with Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes at Clash at the Castle: Scotland. [46] During the following weeks, Sikoa recruited Jacob Fatu, kicked Heyman out of the stable, and replaced Reigns as the leader and Tribal Chief, revealing that he was in possession of Reigns' Ula Fala. [47] [48] [49] At Money in the Bank on July 6, Sikoa, Tonga and Fatu defeated Rhodes, Orton and Owens after Sikoa pinned Rhodes. [50] On August 3, at SummerSlam, Sikoa failed to win the title from Rhodes in a Bloodline Rules match after interference from the returning Reigns. [51] On the September 13 episode of SmackDown, Sikoa again failed to win the title from Rhodes in a steel cage match. [52]

At Bad Blood on October 5, Sikoa and Fatu lost to Reigns and Rhodes after interference from a returning Jimmy Uso, with Sikoa being pinned by Reigns. [53] At Crown Jewel on November 2, Sikoa, Tonga and Fatu defeated the original incarnation of The Bloodline (Reigns and The Usos), with Sikoa pinning Reigns. [54] At Survivor Series: WarGames on November 30, The Bloodline and Bronson Reed lost to Reigns, The Usos, Sami Zayn and CM Punk in a WarGames match, with Sikoa being pinned by Reigns. [55] Reigns then challenged Sikoa for the Ula Fala and Tribal Chief title in Tribal Combat at the Raw premiere on Netflix on January 6, 2025, [56] [57] where Sikoa lost the Ula Fala and the Tribal Chief title to Reigns. [58]

On the January 17 episode of SmackDown, Sikoa tried to break silence but walked out on Tonga and Fatu. [59] On the February 7 episode of SmackDown, Sikoa returned and attacked Rhodes, reigniting their feud. [60]
