"He's the problem" - Jacob Fatu blamed for WWE star's loss on SmackDown

Jacob Fatu was blamed by his stablemate, JC Mateo, on this week's WWE SmackDown. The latter wasn't pleased with the reigning United States Champion after losing to Jimmy Uso.

Solo Sikoa and his family were involved in the opening segment on SmackDown. They interrupted Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, and Paul Heyman ahead of tomorrow's Money in the Bank Premium Live Event.

Following a miscommunication between Fatu and Mateo, Jimmy rolled up his opponent for the win. Post-match, Mateo expressed his frustrations with The Samoan Werewolf by calling him the "problem."

"He's the problem, not me," JC told Sikoa.

Check out the heated exchange between Mateo and Fatu on SmackDown:

Mateo debuted in the WWE at the Backlash Premium Live Event, helping Jacob Fatu retain the United States Championship against LA Knight, Damian Priest, and Drew McIntyre in a Fatal Four-Way Match.

Sikoa had previously stated that he was short on soldiers, with Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa sidelined with injuries. The former Tribal Chief introduced Mateo as the newest addition to his family.

However, Jacob Fatu hasn't taken Mateo's addition kindly, especially after he failed to qualify for the Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match. The field of six superstars will feature Sikoa, who will join Seth Rollins, LA Knight, Andrade, Penta, and El Grande Americano.
