On the RAW episode following Backlash 2026, WWE commentator Michael Cole revealed that Jacob Fatu could be facing termination due to his violent actions against officials. Fatu, who has been a dominant force since his return, previously defeated Drew McIntyre in an Unsanctioned match at WrestleMania 42 and challenged his cousin, Roman Reigns, for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. During the lead-up to Backlash, Fatu showcased his aggressive style, including the Tongan D*ath Grip submission move. Despite his efforts, Reigns managed to secure victory at Backlash using an exposed turnbuckle. On RAW, Fatu's refusal to acknowledge Reigns during a special ceremony led to chaos, culminating in an attack on RAW General Manager Adam Pearce. Cole's announcement raises questions about Fatu's future in WWE and the potential for a rematch against Reigns, especially with the Clash in Italy approaching on May 31. The involvement of The Usos remains uncertain, as they did not intervene at Backlash after Fatu's warning to protect their family.
