At last Saturday's SummerSlam, Jacob Fatu interfered in the Undisputed WWE Championship match between Cody Rhodes and Solo Sikoa, attacking the champion. The "Samoan Werewolf" hit the "American Nightmare" with a splash from the top rope onto the announce table and appeared to have injured his leg or ankle, as he never recovered and got up.
At the press conference after SummerSlam, Triple H stated that Jacob Fatu was a little hurt, and the fighter was seen wearing a protective boot. However, during this Friday's SmackDown, despite Jacob Fatu's absence, new details emerged about his physical condition.
In the first segment of the show, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes mentioned that because Solo Sikoa couldn't do his job alone, Jacob Fatu was injured and is out. Corey Graves also addressed the "Samoan Werewolf's" injury, informing fans that he is out due to injury, but did not provide further details about the severity or recovery time.
