Paul Heyman Says WWE Would Be Remiss To Not Sign Zilla Fatu

Paul Heyman believes WWE should sign Zilla Fatu.

WWE have a long and storied history with the Anoa’i family, with notable names such as The Wild Samoans, Yokozuna, The Rock, Rikishi, Roman Reigns, and The Usos all standing among the company’s all-time greats. Following the success of The Bloodline, Paul Heyman now appears to have his eye on another member of the family who is beginning to make his name in the industry.

Speaking to MuscleManMalcom on Muscle Memory, Paul Heyman claimed that WWE should bring Zilla Fatu into the promotion when the chance arises.

“I think WWE would be remiss if WWE doesn’t sign Zilla Fatu at the very first opportunity to do so.”

-Paul Heyman

Zilla Fatu is the son of the late former two-time WWE Intercontinental Championship holder Umaga and could join his cousins Roman Reigns, The Usos, Solo Sikoa, and Jacob Fatu as the latest member of the Anoa’i family to make his mark in WWE.

While many fans expect Zilla Fatu to eventually join his extended family in WWE, he already has an AEW World Championship match under his belt after unsuccessfully challenging MJF at HOG No Turning Back on February 20.

On the topic of the Anoa’i family, The Young Bucks recently opened up about their experience of taking on The Usos in a WWE tryout match back in 2011. You can read more about that here.

As always, we’ll aim to provide any further updates on any future interest in Zilla Fatu as soon as we hear more.
