Jacob Fatu officially acknowledged Roman Reigns on WWE Raw after their Tribal Combat match at Clash in Italy, bringing the latest chapter of the Bloodline story to a dramatic close.

The segment followed Fatu’s loss to Reigns at Clash in Italy, where the stipulation required him to acknowledge the Original Tribal Chief if he was defeated. Fatu finally addressed the situation on Raw.

Fatu arrived late during the show, joking about it being his first day on the job before turning his attention to the Tribal Combat match. He admitted that he knew exactly what was at stake when he agreed to the bout and understood what he would have to do if he lost to Reigns.

While accepting the result, Fatu said he lost to Roman Reigns, but not to Jey Uso. With the arena watching, Fatu dropped to one knee and formally acknowledged Reigns as the Tribal Chief. Reigns responded by embracing Fatu and telling him that he loved him.

The segment closed with Reigns standing alongside Fatu and the Usos. Together, they raised their index fingers in the familiar Bloodline gesture, signaling solidarity around the Head of the Table.

The closing image left little doubt about where allegiances currently stand following Clash in Italy. After weeks of tension and a high-stakes Tribal Combat showdown, Fatu fulfilled the stipulation and publicly acknowledged Roman Reigns on WWE Raw.
