Rikishi was in apodcast recently where he was asked about the booking of the Samoan Family. The star wrestler was happy with the booking of the family in the company. However, he was not too sure about one booking. He did not found it appropriate to see Jacob Fatu being booked at a high level. Rikishi claimed Jacob to be pushed rather a bit oo fast.

Rikishi compared Jacob with Cody Rhodes and claimed that the American Nightmare had a hard way in his WWE stint and had to wait years to become the star he currently is. "I think Jacob’s being pushed too fast, when you go to Cody, where do you go from there, Cody is thee guy right now," said Rikishi.

He further claimed that there was a need for Jacob to be gone though tussles against some of the top wrestlers of the roster. Rikishi felt Jacob had to go through some feuds with top stars to give him a chance to probve himself as a wrestler other than showing up for just 3 minutes.

"I’ve said this before, let Jacob rampage through the whole roster, give him a couple of those enhancement matches to build, he don’t need but 3 minutes," added Rikishi. He felt the need for Jacob Fatu to spend some time in the ring rather than attack wrestlers which do not take much of time.

Rikishi claimed that Jacob has not had longer matches other than a coupel of instances. He felt there was nothing different beteeen him and any other wrestler. He felt there was a need for the Bloodline star to work on his in-ring skills.

"Again we’ve seen Jacob however long he’s been out a couple months or whatever, but is there anything different, you can only do so much on a run in," added Rikishi in the podcast. Jacob won the tag team championship with Tama Tonga before it was handed over to Tonga Loa on Smackdown.
