WWE Smack Down _July 25, 2025 - Jacob Fatu Vs The Miz _ Solo Sikoa & MFTs attack Jacob Fatu
Transcript
00:00Members of the MFT heard outside of Frost Bank Arena here in San Antonio,
00:05Texas ahead of Friday Night SmackDown.
00:08What's a criminal?
00:09Always a criminal.
00:11And this was after Che Guevara had been investigated by the cops and
00:17Fulton, innocent man, Fulton and Jimmy Uso got them down.
00:22On the MFTs, even the massive talent Tonga taken out in the process.
00:28Utter carnage, capped off by this massive moonsault.
00:33Look at me, Solo.
00:37You will defend your United States Championship against Jacob Fatou.
00:42Inside a steel cage.
00:48He's all yours.
00:51Right there, uh-huh.
00:52Get that stupid- Much to the surprise of Conor,
00:55it was he who spent the night in lockup for framing an innocent Samoan werewolf.
01:00Solo, let's get right to the point.
01:06I loved you, but you made it like this.
01:11You tried to get me framed, you tried to send me to jail.
01:16When I told my family, you, and everybody else that I'm never going back.
01:23Last week, Adam Pearce told me he was going to lock me down in the cage at SummerSlam with you.
01:31You see, I don't mind being locked down in that cage for the US title one-on-one with you.
01:39Because at the end of the day, I'm about to dog walk your ass.
01:42Y'all know what I mean?
01:43Hey!
01:46You and I have someone from this business.
01:49Six weeks ago, you put me on the show.
01:50Took me out.
01:51Give me just enough time to figure out exactly who I am.
01:54A guy who's went toe-to-toe with legends, outlasted monsters, beaten icons.
02:00Solo had to remind me that there's a bigger game at play, and you're just a pawn.
02:04And me, I'm not the victim.
02:06I'm not the target.
02:08I'm the main character.
02:09That's why I went to Nick Aldis and got us a match right now.
02:13So just so you know, you got the wrong guy on the wrong day in the wrong city.
02:17This evening, it's my hometown, because I'm the men's, and I'm back.
02:35That's what he's coming to, huh?
02:37A match right now, huh?
02:41Well, come on with it.
02:47What the hell did you just do?
02:55Is he out of his mind?
02:56I don't care if it's your hometown, you simply don't do that.
03:00I mean, that's Cleveland tough and fan-backed, but doing that to the Samoan Werewolf?
03:08The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
03:12Introducing first, residing in Hollywood, California, weighing 221 pounds, The Miz!
03:27The two in The Miz coming up.
03:29WWE Universe, ever wonder what it means to be a luchador?
03:33WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio and the star of Bad Guys 2, Anthony Ramos.
03:37Break it all down in this exclusive look. Check it out.
03:53You know what's funny, Damien? You felt that it was necessary to stick your nose in my business,
04:15and the debt that I wanted to collect is now inherited by you.
04:24So, Alistair, you think I owe you a debt?
04:29You remind me of this collector you should know back in the street.
04:32You know the type.
04:33He would collect what was owed and then take a little extra for himself.
04:37Well, I stepped in from one of my boys like I did with Truth, and he didn't like that too much.
04:42And when I gave him my best shot, he never collected from anybody ever again.
04:49You see, a lot of people think that you and I are cut from the same cloth.
04:53The truth is, is that you fight to prove who you are, whereas I, I fight to reveal who you are.
05:02I ain't nothing like you. All you see in me is everything you want to be.
05:08I will unmake you. I will tear down the wall that you've built to hold back the truth.
05:14And when there's nothing left, for the first time, Priest, you will see yourself.
05:20And I promise you, you will not like it.
05:23Next week, I ain't hiding who I am.
05:26I'm the bad guy.
05:28And when I show up to my backyard, I ain't coming to play peacemaker.
05:32I'm bringing these hands, and I'm gonna punish you.
05:39Huge match next week.
05:41Two creatures of the night who thrive in darkness,
05:45while they're gonna step into the bright lights of a ring in Newark, New Jersey.
05:50Next Friday, Damian Priest, one-on-one with Aleister Black, live on SmackDown.
05:56That's next Friday.
05:57What a way to kick off SummerSlam weekend.
05:59Hey, the bad guys are-
06:04This family's gonna be sitting right there for our WWE Tag Team Championship match,
06:15coming up in moments.
06:16But right now, The Miz Wade, and perhaps a puzzling move like the Cleveland Browns quarterback,
06:22depth room.
06:23The Miz slapped Fatou, and it's got himself in this spot.
06:28Miz has been away for six weeks after being sent crashing through our timekeepers booth by
06:35this werewolf.
06:37And I don't know if coming back to try and get even was the smartest idea from the A-lister.
06:52And his opponent, from Sacramento, California, weighed in at 291 pounds.
07:00The Samoian Werewolf, Jacob Fatou!
07:09Jacob Fatou, in the midst of what we'll describe as complex family matters that had him
07:15turn against solos, so he's absolutely beloved by the fans.
07:18He's as vicious as could be.
07:20Lost the US title at Night of Champions.
07:22Been fighting back against the MFTs for weeks now.
07:25And come next week, it's steel cage time.
07:27Yeah, Fatou taking on the US champ Solo Sokoa inside a steel cage on his SummerSlam Sunday.
07:36Next weekend, but right now, business to take care of against a man who,
07:42unfathomably, slapped him just moments ago.
07:46That man being The Miz.
07:48Miz, what the hell were you thinking?
07:50Now he's thinking unfinished business as he would describe it.
07:53For what Jacob did to him that put him on the shelf for weeks.
07:57As The Miz, quick to get at it with left hand after left hand from that southpaw stance
08:02before being thrown right into the corner and then running into the big boot is Fatou.
08:08Tactically, this has been great from The Miz until it wasn't.
08:12It was hit and move, hit and move.
08:14And then suddenly, The Samoan Werewolf does what The Samoan Werewolf does.
08:21Yes, we do know exactly what you mean.
08:24And now, Miz knows all about it too.
08:27Yeah, you find out pretty quickly, don't you, against Fatou.
08:30Listen to this crowd here in Cleveland.
08:32The Miz's hometown, but they just love Fatou.
08:36This is a massacre.
08:37Oh, and Miz just about getting out of the way in the nick of time.
08:41Now, Miz has been keeping busy over the past few weeks hosting Gladiators,
08:46hosting his golf show, Miz Golf, on YouTube.
08:50All of which sounds a hell of a lot easier than stepping in the ring with The Samoan Werewolf.
08:55Yeah, big difference between being a ritzy network and streaming TV host and being
09:01opposite Fatou when he's enraged and he just got slapped.
09:10The familiar entrance of his chief rival.
09:15Solo Sokoa and the MFTs, mid-match, making their way down.
09:25Well, this match could be over, pending Solo and the MFTs' next move.
09:30But with that distraction, Miz pounces with the chop block.
09:36Perhaps that's all Solo Sokoa needed to do this evening.
09:40With the distraction, he sends Fatou into the post.
09:45Next weekend, Jacob Fatou will compete for the US title against Solo Sokoa,
10:00who is standing over him, right? Look at Miz mocking him.
10:05As Solo and the MFTs stand over Jacob Fatou.
10:09Well, Miz is always in the hunt for friends,
10:12because he quite simply doesn't have any most of the time.
10:15And you could do a lot worse than making friends with Solo Sokoa and the MFTs.
10:21That is quite the backup.
10:25The A-lister here in front of his hometown crowd.
10:30Looking to get the best of Jacob Fatou.
10:33Well, he certainly is getting the best of Jacob Fatou.
10:37But we would be remiss if we didn't mention it was primarily
10:40because of the appearance of the quartet at ringside.
10:44With the chieftain being the man Jacob Fatou will be facing
10:49at SummerSlam Sunday inside the steel cage for that United States Championship solo Sokoa.
10:55Miz's first match since May 2nd.
11:00As he returns to action, just pulls at that face,
11:04ripping across the nostrils of Fatou.
11:07I will say some people get a little overconfident when they're in their hometown.
11:12I know I certainly used to whenever we toured in the UK.
11:16But the Miz was looking good and looking for the pop-up Samoan.
11:22But instead, the Miz able to get free and then deliver that elbow as Fatou came charging in.
11:27Miz has been around the block.
11:29He knows how to smell danger a mile off, but he didn't smell that danger.
11:33A crossbody was caught and then Fatou slams him down.
11:37That's crazy power from the Samoan werewolf.
11:41An undersold aspect of this man's game.
11:44Oh, and now Solo Sokoa threatens to get up on the apron as Fatou
11:50was putting himself in position against The Miz.
11:54Well, Fatou simply cannot focus under these circumstances.
11:57Try as he might.
11:59Swanton, but the knees got up from The Miz.
12:03Well, it took about 15 minutes for
12:07Fatou to jump off the top rope due to that
12:10repeated distraction from Solo Sokoa.
12:12That allowed Miz to get the knees up in time.
12:16And once again, this one has turned around in a hurry.
12:19And Miz, and I can't blame him, has to enact some major punishment now to the Samoan werewolf.
12:25Whilst Bane a little lip service to Solo Sokoa and his men.
12:29Fatou, Fatou, Fatou, Fatou, Fatou, Fatou, Fatou, Fatou, Fatou, Fatou, Fatou, Fatou.
12:38And now the it kicks connecting in repetition.
12:42And suddenly, Jake Fatou looks like half the man he looked at formally.
12:48Incredible night of action.
13:06Friday night Smackdown here in Cleveland.
13:08Jacob Fatou a week away from competing to try to regain his US title against Solo Sokoa
13:13in a steel cage at SummerSlam.
13:15Solo and the MFTs are ringside.
13:17But right now it's The Miz who has returned to action against Solo Sokoa.
13:21The guy who put him on the shelf all the way back in May.
13:25It was looking like a massacre until Solo Sokoa et al arrived at ringside causing multiple distractions.
13:32But now, Jacob Fatou with the second win.
13:36And this is the last thing you want if you're a fan of the A-lister.
13:40Samoan comes in as he smashes in the man who held the US title for 70 days before he lost
13:46to Sokoa at night of champions.
13:49And on that night, Fatou was pinned for the first time in his WWE career.
13:54And it came against Solo.
13:58Now, Cleveland's very own The Miz in a tough spot.
14:01He slapped Fatou earlier tonight.
14:04And he's regretting every second of his actions tonight right now.
14:10Oh, would you look at the MFTs?
14:11Well, with that hip attack, Miz looked out cold.
14:14The MFTs dragging his carcass out of the ring.
14:17But that is no statement.
14:19There goes Fatou.
14:20A three-for-one deal from Jacob Fatou.
14:29Jacob Fatou looking ready to fight anything that moves right now.
14:34Tomatanga goes flying.
14:36Super kick against Solo.
14:38They will meet up at MetLife Stadium.
14:42Pop-up Samoan.
14:45My, oh, my, Jacob.
14:47The werewolf roars.
14:49An unlikely victory, but now the consequences being enacted by the MFTs driven by Solo Sokoa.
14:59You may have won the battle, but you certainly will not win the war.
15:03Not against this quartet.
15:05And it is four on one.
15:07As JC Mateo continues with kicks.
15:11Oh, but help is on the way.
15:13Make it four on two.
15:15And if I see what I think I see, a steel jab.
15:18That is four on three.
15:21And dropping like flies at the MFTs.
15:24Big Jim here.
15:25Would you look at Big Jim?
15:28Talatanga getting met up on the apron.
15:32Pulse down that top rope and Solo goes flying.
15:35Big Jim just a step ahead tonight.
15:38Steel chair in hand and across the back of the nearly seven foot tall Talatanga.
15:45Oh, God.
15:46Oh, God.
15:47Oh, my.
15:48Look at that face.
15:50You're shrugging it off.
15:52Start running now, Jim.
15:55Big Jim wielding that chair, but what a boot to the face by Talatanga.
16:02Oh, this guy.
16:03Solo Sokoa.
16:05And the rest of the MFTs are right back to business.
16:10It was a valiant effort from Jimmy Uso, but what the hell are you supposed to do
16:15against this massive monster that is Talatanga.
16:19Getting him up for the Samoan spike.
16:21Oh, and the gutsy Jacob Batu trying to fight his way free.
16:26No quit in the Samoan werewolf whatsoever.
16:29How the hell is he pulling this off?
16:31He's taking all four of them on.
16:34Super kick and another.
16:36And now the hip attack against Solo Sokoa.
16:40Simply dog walking a bunch of fools tonight.
16:45And now he sees that steel chair.
16:50He sees the US champion.
16:53He's a week away from trying to regain that gold.
16:57And Solo is a sitting duck.
16:59I'm trying to tell you, I do this, I do this, Solo.
17:09Well, this is a career ender right here.
17:12And Solo Sokoa in major peril.
17:15He's gonna...
17:15Oh!
17:17Tala Tonga comes in and disrupts that plan of annihilation.
17:28While Solo Sokoa must be thanking his lucky stars that Talatanga is by his side.
17:36The absolute difference maker tonight.
17:41The newest and largest member of the MFTs slamming down Jacob Batu.
17:48And as brave and courageous as the fight was against these four, it ends like this.
18:00Surrounded and spiked.
18:02A steel gate awaits.
18:16Next weekend at MetLife Stadium.
18:19I told you, I told you, don't ever leave the battle.
18:24Oh!
18:25I gave you everything.
18:27This is what happens when you betrayed me.
18:29Next week, I'll pee your ass.
18:33Message sent by Solo Sokoa loud and clear.
18:37And when the Samoan werewolf wakes up, that message will be received.
18:42I gave you everything.
18:44This is what...
18:45Steel Cage next week.
18:46Let's go backstage to Kathy Kelly.
