Why Did Jacob Fatu Betray Solo Sikoa At The MITB 2025?
For nearly a year, the WWE landscape has been shaped by the unforgiving fists and fierce loyalty of the ‘New Bloodline’. Led by Solo Sikoa, the quiet storm who took over where Roman Reigns left off, and enforced by the ferocious Jacob Fatu, this new era of Samoan dominance carved its name into the SmackDown roster with blood, brutality, and silence.
Week after week, they decimated opponents, shattered alliances, and ruled with fear and legacy on their side. It felt like a movement, a resurgence of heritage fused with ruthless ambition. The kind of faction that doesn’t just win titles but redefines what dominance looks like.
Fatu and Sikoa weren’t just cousins in a stable; they were a two-headed monster, breathing fire and Samoan pride. But all empires crumble.
At Money in the Bank 2025, in one of the most shocking betrayals in modern WWE history, Jacob Fatu turned on Solo Sikoa — and not with hesitation, but with merciless intent.
What Exactly Happened At MITB 2025?
Just moments after Solo fought off a brutal onslaught by Seth Rollins’ men, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed, that pushed him to the edge, Jacob Fatu and JC Mateo came to his rescue.
Thereafter, Fatu guided Solo to enter the ring and claim the briefcase. Just moments later, Fatu struck. No warning. Three words: “I HATE YOU”.
After pulling Solo down the ladder, Fatu struck a thunderous kick to his cousin’s face and then a splash onto the ladder at the ringside that echoed through the arena and broke the hearts of fans who had come to believe in the strength of their bond.

In that instant, the Bloodline wasn’t just fractured. It was gutted! And everyone was left asking: Why?
Why Did Jacob Fatu Turn His Back on Solo Sikoa?
On the surface, Fatu’s betrayal looks like yet another tale of ego and ambition. But peel back the layers, and it runs much deeper than that.
For months, Jacob Fatu had played the role of the silent wrecking ball, always behind Solo, always overshadowed. While Sikoa cut the promos, made the big entrances, and declared himself the Tribal Heir, Fatu was the muscle — the action without the recognition. And if there’s one thing wrestlers like Fatu crave more than victory, it’s respect.
Let’s not forget – before stepping foot in WWE, Fatu was tearing it up in MLW. He was “the guy,” not just a sidekick. His name came with a legacy of savagery and spectacle, a man capable of main-eventing any show he walked into. WWE embraced that, but only in service of Solo’s leadership.
Over time, that tension grew. You could see it in Fatu’s eyes, the way he stared just a second too long after each win. He wasn’t content being a soldier. He wanted to be king. MITB 2025 was the perfect storm. Solo Sikoa was vulnerable, the spotlight shining, and Fatu ready to remind the world that he’s not just part of the dynasty —he‘s the dynasty.
What Future Holds For Jacob Fatu And Solo Sikoa?
With the New Bloodline in ruins, WWE is heading into one of its most compelling chapters. Fatu, already a US Champion, is now positioned as an apex predator, unleashed from the chains of loyalty.
Expect him to go on a path of destruction, calling out top-tier stars and possibly setting his sights on a bigger championship to solidify his status as a solo alpha. Whether WWE books him as a heel or an anti-hero, his stardom is undeniably rising. The fans don’t just respect him, they fear him. And that’s money!
As for Solo Sikoa, this could be his crucible. Betrayed by blood, humbled on a grand stage, and now standing alone. This is where real legends are forged.
Solo has the chance to become something even Roman Reigns couldn’t: a Tribal Chief who rises from betrayal and builds anew.
