Zilla Fatu credits his father Umaga as well as Roman Reigns for inspiring his finishing maneuver. Fatu finishes opponents with the Superman Spike, and he said in a recent interview with the Wrestle Era Pod that he came up with the maneuver by combining the signature moves of the two. You can see some highlights below (h/t to Wrestling Inc):

On coming up with his finisher: “One day, I was just watching Roman, and then I was watching my dad, and I was like, ‘Why don’t I just put [them] together?'”

On setting up the move: “I like having the same setup every match, but the question is how we get into it. I got it from Randy Orton. When [he] hits the RKO, you just never know.”
