Jeff Cobb made a massive splash at WWE Backlash when he appeared under the name JC Matteo and helped Jacob Fatu retain the United States Championship. But while fans were hyped to see Cobb officially align with The Bloodline, Jacob Fatus reaction in the ring painted a much more complicated picture.
During a recent interview with Battleground Podcast, Fatu was asked directly about the interferenceand his lack of celebration afterward. His response made it clear that while Cobb belongs in WWE, theres more going on behind the curtain than most realize.
Fatu started by trying to keep the focus on the legacy of The Bloodline and their deep roots.
But when asked why he seemed unsettled despite winning the match, Fatu admitted the situation caught him off guard and hinted that he wasnt fully in the loop.
He mentioned that Cobb deserved the moment and that he had nothing but respect for the journey his longtime friend has taken.
Still, Fatu didnt shy away from pointing out how unstable things have felt lately within The Bloodlines new era, especially with Solo Sikoa stepping into a leadership role.
In the end, Fatu made it clear that communication and alignment are whats missingat least for now.
This moment peeled back the curtain just enough to show that things arent as locked in as they appear. The Bloodline might be expanding, but the foundation seems shakier than ever.
