Jacob Fatu WWE interview

Jacob Fatu recalls almost getting fired before he got hired to WWE because of his addiction issues. "This past WrestleMania, your husband [Triple H], I don’t mean to get deep but before I actually got hired — I almost got fired before I got hired because of my addiction and stuff. Your husband, they passed me, they did pass me. It was cause of me. Bruce called, it was all bad. 19 days, I didn’t know if I had a job. Our kids are asking me, ‘Dad, when we moving to Florida?’ I couldn’t even answer them for 19 days because I thought it was done. They brought me up again and your husband said, ‘We’ll give him a second chance, everybody deserves a second chance. But, when he get here, all that gotta stop.’” After his match with Drew McIntyre, Fatu had a special moment with Triple H at WrestleMania 42. “He came up to me after WrestleMania 42 — if y’all don’t realize, 42 means Fatu, that’s why we’re always wearing 42, me and The Usos. It means 42 in our culture. WrestleMania 40, I went on Twitter and I put “WM42”. I didn’t know if I was going to be here. I knew, but I didn’t know how. I knew it was going to work out but I didn’t know how. I had 41 with Knight, very blessed, but especially after this one, it meant something different. Your husband came and found me after. You gotta walk back through gorilla but knowing me, I be jumping in the crowd. So I jumped in the crowd and came the other way. Hunter wants to see you. As soon as I’m walking up, your husband is coming down. He just gave me a hug and I just remember telling him crying, ‘Thank you. Thank you man, you’re the one that gave me that second chance.’ When I gave him a hug, he just grabbed my face like, ‘You did it. Don’t thank me. You did it. The only person that could mess this up is you, Jacob.’ It was a real good moment and a special moment.” (What's Your Story?)
