Zilla Fatu Not Signed By WWE

Although Zilla Fatu will not be appearing on any Game Changer Wrestling shows for the foreseeable future, this does not mean the son of Umaga is WWE-bound. 

Fightful Select has reported that Fatu has not signed with WWE and he didn't work for GCW over the weekend following a disagreement with the independent wrestling promotion about his rate. Fatu's management team wished to speak with GCW but that didn't end up happening, although Fatu and GCW have since been in contact. 

Fatu was scheduled to face Matt Tremont at GCW Aura on Saturday, September 21 but the match was scrapped and GCW issued the following statement: 

"Zilla Fatu will not be appearing on tonite’s GCW event in Philadelphia, or any GCW shows for the foreseeable future. We tried our best to avoid this situation, but we have reached an impasse. We wish him the best. Matt Tremont will now face SLADE tonight at #GCWAura in Philly."

Zilla Fatu has worked regularly for GCW since the beginning of 2024. He is also featured in House of Glory and Reality of Wrestling and Fatu is the reigning ROW Champion and HOG Crown Jewel Champion. 

Fatu, as an Anoa'i family member, has been tipped as a future member of The Bloodline. Another name speculated for The Bloodline in Hikuleo will reportedly begin his WWE run in NXT.
