Zilla Fatu made his shocking WWE debut tonight. He made a huge statement upon his arrival, attacking two top stars.
This week’s episode of WWE NXT was headlined by a singles match between Grayson Waller and Cruz Montana. The duo squared off to determine the number one contender for the NXT Championship held by Tony D’Angelo. Waller and Montana delivered a back-and-forth showdown. However, the bout was ruled a no contest after Zilla Fatu’s unexpected interference.
Thanks for the submission!
Fatu interrupted the match and launched a brutal beatdown on The Aussie Icon and the former TNA World Champion. He took out Montana with a Samoan Drop before delivering a Superman Punch to Waller. The Main One didn’t stop there, as he executed an Uso Splash on both superstars.
The show ended with a confrontation between Zilla Fatu and Tony D’Angelo. WWE seemingly laid the foundation for a potential NXT Championship match with the massive face-off. After the program went off the air, Umaga’s son sent a warning to the black-and-silver brand’s roster.
WWE recently uploaded an Instagram Reel featuring the former HOG Crown Jewel Champion. In the video, Fatu officially announced his arrival and put the NXT roster on notice.
“New sheriff in town. The Main One. Zilla Fatu,” he said before leaving the arena.

Fatu was rumored to join the sports entertainment juggernaut for weeks. Earlier today, a report by False Finish suggested that the upstart was at the WWE Performance Center. Before joining the Stamford-based promotion, The Main One dropped the HOG Crown Jewel Championship to Amazing Red at High Intensity 2026 on August 7.
Many expected the powerhouse to join his cousins in The Bloodline on RAW in his WWE debut. However, Fatu aims to conquer NXT before possibly moving to the main roster. It will be interesting to see when he wrestles his first match for the organization.
