Zilla Fatu knows he has time to grow as a pro wrestler.
Zilla Fatu, who is the son of the late Umaga has been pursuing his dream of becoming a professional wrestler. From teaming with his own family to learning under WWE Hall of Famer, Booker T. Fatu has continued to grow and wants to one day be in the same company as all his other family members.
However, when asked by Chris Van Vliet if he was ready for the big stage, this is what Zilla had to say.
“No. I thought I was. No, I think I still have more time to grow. I’m still green. I still have a long way to go, man. So I think when the timing is right, and not only that, when I feel right, just like the same feeling I had in prison, that I was tired, that I didn’t change my life, I’m just waiting for that feeling, and once that feeling pops up, that’s when I’m gonna start pushing for it. But for right now, I’m just being patient and just waiting, just grinding, enjoying the process, enjoying the journey, and just learning as I go and always be the student in the game. And I think, time will tell, and I think the fans will play a big role in that. So I’m just working like WWE never had their eyes on me. I think having that mindset, I think I’m gonna get there. I know I’m gonna be there.” – Zilla Fatu said to Chris Van Vliet.
Zilla recently lost the House Of Glory Crown Jewel Championship to Bully Ray in a Tables Match. He also made an appearance at TNA Slammiversary where he picked up his first win under the TNA banner.
