Ahead of WWE Backlash, the World Heavyweight Champion Jey Uso shared a picture with Bloodline member Jacob Fatu. The Samoan Werewolf is heading to the event for a high-stakes fatal four-way match, putting his United States Championship on the line.
Jey Uso Shares a Picture With Jacob Fatu
WrestleMania 41 saw many titles changing hands and delivered the biggest moments in the careers of Uso and Fatu. The Main Event Jey defeated Gunther to become the new World Heavyweight Champion, while The Samoan Werewolf came out on top against LA Knight to become the US Champion.
Recently, The Yeet Master shared a picture with his cousin on his Instagram story, adding a simple two-word message, “Fatu Thang.”
Ever since Uso uploaded the story with Fatu, fans have been speculating about the two Bloodline members teaming up. It’ll be interesting to see if this was a tease or just a random picture.
Post-Match Attack on Jey Uso on WWE RAW
On the May 5 episode of RAW, Main Event Jey kicked off the show to call out his rival, Logan Paul. But surprisingly, the one who came out was Paul Heyman. He, for the first time, addressed betraying Roman Reigns and manipulated the champion into putting his title on the line against Seth Rollins.
Uso and Rollins put on a very competitive match, with neither man ready to give up, both kicking out despite hard beatings. The match ended in a disqualification when CM Punk made his comeback after two weeks and attacked The Visionary and his ally, Bron Breakker, with a steel chair.
Punk had suffered defeat against Rollins in a triple-threat match at WrestleMania Night One’s main event, thanks to Heyman’s shocking betrayal. On the RAW following the big event, Breakker and Rollins destroyed him and Reigns.
The Second City Saint’s interference helped Uso retain his title, but after the show went off-air, the champion was sharing a moment with fans when Logan Paul suddenly arrived and hit him with a punch.

Paul seems to be the next challenger for Uso’s title, but it remains to be seen when the match will take place. Many fans are upset that there’s no announcement for their clash at Backlash, and it seems unlikely the two will face off this Saturday.
Jacob Fatu Set to Defend US Title at Backlash
Uso most probably won’t be competing at Backlash; however, another Bloodline member, Fatu, is set to make his first title defense in St. Louis, as he’ll put his US Title on the line in a fatal four-way match against LA Knight, Damian Priest, and Drew McIntyre.
There is also speculation that during this match, Solo Sikoa, whom many predict will betray the US Champion, might finally turn on him. It will be interesting to see who walks out of the Enterprise Center with the gold and whether The Bloodline remains united following the PLE.
