Jacob Fatu received some support from longtime pro wrestling<\/a> colleague Royce Keys on “Friday Night SmackDown” ahead of his World Heavyweight Championship match at Backlash on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Fatu had just been given words of warning by Jey and Jimmy Uso in the ring when cameras found him wandering in the back. Fatu ran into Keys, who he has a history with being at West Coast Pro and other promotions together before the two made it to WWE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I heard what your cousins said out there, forget all that noise,” Keys said. “Failure has never been an option for us, has it? Failure was never an option, even when we didn\u2019t know where our next dollar was coming from. Tell me this \u2013 when has Jacob Fatu been afraid of any man that breathes the same air as him?<\/p>\n

“Go to Backlash, bring that home. Werewolf your a– up because Jacob Fatu is all gas, no brakes with it. People like us, we\u2019re gonna take everything we want.”<\/p>\n

Keys and Fatu go back to the wrestling days in the Bay Area. Keys recently recalled grinding on the indies with Fatu<\/a> in an interview with Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, before the two men met, Fatu cut an impassioned promo as he\u2019s set to face Roman Reigns<\/a> at the premium live event in Tampa, Florida.<\/p>\n

The Usos interrupted Fatu\u2019s initial speech and Jey Uso warned Fatu that he was going to lose.<\/p>\n

“Wanna know the worst part? He\u2019s gonna break you down, emotionally, physically and he gonna do all that to you right in front of your family, Uce,” he said.<\/p>\n

Fatu vowed that he wasn\u2019t losing the match.<\/p>\n

“This isn\u2019t just a main event. This is for my family. If there\u2019s one thing my family will see me do it\u2019s becoming the WWE world heavyweight champion,” Fatu said, adding a warning of his own to The Usos before he left the ring. “If you think about interfering, I will bring this whole goddamn family tree down.”<\/p>\n

Jey Uso said met with Keys before Keys\u2019 match against Tama Toga later in the night and told him he needed to stay in his lane or he was going “catch the eyes of the \u2018Tribal Chief.\u2019”<\/p>\n

Cody Rhodes avoids Gunther\u2019s sneak attack<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gunther appeared to be set to sign with the SmackDown roster and Paul Heyman looked to make good on his favor to “The Ring General” during the night. As Gunther met with SmackDown general manager Nick Aldis, Cody Rhodes came out<\/a> to the ring.<\/p>\n

Gunther was upset that Rhodes was taking his screen time. He then left Aldis\u2019 office without signing the SmackDown contract. Rhodes was in the ring addressing Gunther\u2019s attack from last week, as he came from behind and put Rhodes into a sleeper hold.<\/p>\n

Heyman interrupted Rhodes and said the contract he had in his hand was for an Undisputed WWE Championship match at Clash in Italy, which takes place on May 31. But Heyman said Rhodes would have to deliver the contract himself.<\/p>\n

As Heyman left the ring, Gunther came out of the crowd to try to attack Rhodes. However, “The American Nightmare” moved out of the way and delivered his own assault.<\/p>\n
