Zilla Fatu, Son Of Umaga, Reflects On Pro Wrestling Debut And Jokes He Wants To Own WWE
Zilla Fatu has debuted and now has his sights set on a big future.
The son of Umaga, Zilla Fatu, made his debut at the most recent Reality of Wrestling Summer of Champions show. He went 1-0 after picking up the victory with his father’s signature move, the Samoan Spike. After the bout, he spoke with MuscleManMalcolm and reflected on being given the opportunity by Booker T and his staff.
Fatu also admitted he was very nervous going into his first match.
“Before going into it, I was really nervous,” he said. “Really nervous, and I just wanted everything to be protected and not have any hiccups. God blessed me, and we didn’t have any hiccups today, but I still feel I could have done way better.”
Continuing on, Fatu said he did not think the opportunity would come this fast and thanked all involved for helping him get to the position he’s in.
“I didn’t know this opportunity would come this fast. I didn’t know me having this match would come this fast, but just thanks to the whole Reality of Wrestling for believing in me and my vision. Thanks to Booker T, too. He played a big role in getting me on this card and actually on a flyer, so that’s something big. I’m blessed to be in this position right now,” he said.
When asked if his goal was to join The Bloodline in WWE, Zilla joked that his goal was to own the WWE and have all the wrestlers working for him instead.
“Nah, I’m trying to own WWE. I want to own WWE and the wrestlers there,” he said in jest.
Currently, several members of the Samoan Dynasty are involved in a storyline, and the recent Tribal Court of Roman Reigns averaged over 3 million viewers for one quarter of the July 7 episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown. Learn more here.
