Joseph Yokozuna Fatu[2] (born March 18, 1993) is an American professional wrestler. He is signed to WWE, where he performs on the SmackDown brand under the ring name Solo Sikoa as the leader of the villainous iteration of The Bloodline.
After Fatu played college football at American River College in Sacramento, he began his professional wrestling career in 2018 under the ring name Sefa Fatu in the independent circuit. He then signed with the WWE in 2021 and was assigned to the NXT brand under the name Solo Sikoa before being called up to the main roster a year later, debuting at Clash at the Castle, joining The Bloodline stable at first as a silent enforcer, then repackaged as the self-proclaimed "Tribal Chief". In the WWE, he held the NXT North American Championship once.
As the son of Rikishi and brothers of Jonathan and Joshua, Fatu is a member of the Anoaʻi family of Samoan wrestlers.
