Paul Heyman Urges WWE to Sign Zilla Fatu

Paul Heyman, former Bloodline manager, warned WWE that it would be a mistake to overlook third‑generation wrestler Zilla Fatu, who holds multiple indie titles and has deep family ties to the business.

On the Muscle Memory podcast, Heyman said WWE would be remiss if it didn’t sign Zilla Fatu at the first opportunity. The 26‑year‑old, son of former WWE star Umaga and great‑nephew of the Wild Samoans, has built a reputation on the independent circuit.

Fatu currently holds four titles across 4th Rope Wrestling, Gremlin House Wrestling, House of Glory, and the Noble Champions Group, and is a former two‑time Reality of Wrestling Heavyweight Champion. While his pedigree and power make him a compelling prospect, Heyman noted past issues such as no‑showing events and a difficult work ethic.
