The group responded violently after Fatu rejected its latest recruitment offer.
Summary
– Zilla Fatu rejected another offer to join BirthRight on WWE NXT
– Arianna Grace distracted Fatu by slapping him during the confrontation
– BirthRight ended its attack by putting Fatu through a table
Zilla Fatu refused to join BirthRight during the September 8 episode of WWE NXT, and the group responded with a vicious attack.
Charlie Dempsey called Fatu to the ring after claiming BirthRight was built around people who bleed professional wrestling.
Dempsey offered the second-generation star another opportunity to become part of the faction. Fatu came to the ring but rejected the invitation directly to Dempsey’s face.
The refusal immediately brought the rest of BirthRight into the confrontation. The group surrounded Fatu and began attacking him inside the ring.
Fatu briefly fought back and appeared capable of overcoming the numbers. Arianna Grace then stepped forward and slapped him across the face, providing the distraction BirthRight needed to regain control.
The attack continued outside the ring as the faction dragged Fatu toward a table. BirthRight sent him crashing through it before standing over him as NXT went to a commercial break.
Fatu had already rejected an invitation from BirthRight following his victory over Tristan Angels on the September 1 episode. He escaped that confrontation after dropping Lexis King with a superkick.
This time, BirthRight arrived prepared to punish him for refusing its offer. The group turned another recruitment attempt into a warning about what happens to anyone who stands against it.
Fatu now has several enemies waiting for him in NXT. His refusal to join BirthRight appears to have started a rivalry that could continue well beyond this attack.
