Real-life Bloodline member Zilla Fatu suffered a shocking loss at the hands of a WWE Hall of Famer at a recent wrestling event. Booker T, who wrestled his first singles match in six years, beat the fourth-generation star and then sent a message to him on social media.

At Reality of Wrestling's Battle to the Bell event on January 11, Fatu took on Booker T in the main event of Saturday's show. It was held at the Walker Texas Lawyer Arena in Texas City, Galveston County.

The win was the Hall of Famer's first singles bout since January 12, 2019, when he defeated Rex Andrews at ROW's The Last Stand event. It was also Booker's first match since the 2023 Royal Rumble match, where he was one of the surprise entrants.

At 59 years old, Booker T shocked the wrestling community with his win over Zilla Fatu, who has been touted as the next member of The Bloodline to succeed in WWE.

The legendary superstar sent a message to his young protege on his official X account.

"HE'S FINISHED. HE'S DONE. #StreetJustice," Booker tweeted.

For those unaware, Reality of Wrestling was founded by Booker T and his wife Sharmell. The promotion is based in Houston, Texas, and is currently one of the independent wrestling schools under WWE's ID program.

Some of the ROW's biggest stars over the past few years include Ember Moon, Roxanne Perez, and Zilla Fatu.


Former WWE manager predicts big future for Zilla Fatu

Many fans online are already calling for WWE to sign Zilla Fatu and bring him to NXT. However, Fatu is just starting his wrestling journey, and his father Umaga's manager Armando Alejandro Estrada sees a bright future ahead of him.

"He has all the tools. He has the size, the look, and he's had less than 40 matches, which is crazy. Just to see what he's going to look like in two years, three years, five years, with some more Estrada seasoning, along with just continuing to get the reps in the ring," Estrada said on Busted Open Radio last month.

The two finally met in early December, with Estrada managing Fatu in his match against Joey Avalon at Great Lakes Championship Wrestling's Blizzard Brawl event.
