The backstage attack on Jacob Fatu remains a mystery on WWE SmackDown. His brother, Journey Fatu, has weighed in on the situation.
During the October 17th edition of SmackDown, the Samoan Werewolf was found trapped under a pile of production equipment, with his teeth knocked out. As a result of the attack, he was pulled from his #1 Contender's Match against Drew McIntyre.
The angle was played out to write Fatu off television, as he has reportedly been recovering from a dental procedure. Nick Aldis has since been trying to unravel the mystery, having asked Drew McIntyre and Cody Rhodes if they had anything to do with the attack.
Interestingly, both men have denied any involvement, leaving fans wondering who could be behind all this.

So he's gonna be out for a while," he said.If the rumors are true, then WWE will likely reveal the identity of the mystery attacker soon to ignite a buzzworthy feud with a returning Jacob Fatu.
