Fatu retaliated after Sikoa insulted him on SmackDown.
There's been ongoing tension between Solo Sikoa and WWE United States Champion Jacob Fatu and it came to a head during the men's Money in the Bank Ladder match.
Competing in the match were Sikoa, L.A. Knight, Seth Rollins, Penta, Andrade, and El Grande Americano. There came a point when Rollins called for Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed to help him clear house so he could win.
As they were doing so, Jacob Fatu and J.C. Mateo came down to the ring to fight them off. Fatu went on to help Sikoa set up a ladder to grab the briefcase but when Sikoa was on his way up, Fatu held his leg.
When Sikoa realized Fatu was not allowing him to climb, he turned around and Fatu said he hated Sikoa. He proceeded to lay Sikoa out and put him through a ladder.
On the 6/6 Friday Night SmackDown, Sikoa was on camera talking to J.C. Mateo and said Fatu is 'all gas and no brains.' Fatu was nearby and heard what Sikoa said.
