Jacob Fatu-Charity situation update.
Added 2024-11-05 20:33:28 +0000 UTCFightful Select has learned that Jacob Fatu and Jake's Network of Hope actually resolved their issues previously.
Last year, Jacob Fatu was outed as having canceled a booking from a charity, Jake's Network of Hope, claiming that it cost the organization $2,633 and not repaying them.
Fightful spoke to sources familiar with the situation, that claimed that Fatu had rectified the issue months ago. When we reached out to Jake's Network of Hope, they confirmed that he actually made a full payment in June 2024 that they had overlooked.
Jenn Harper of Jake's Network of Hope issued the following statement to Fightful:
"In May, Jacob Fatu reached out with a heartfelt apology, initiating a meaningful dialogue that allowed us to work together with all parties involved to find solutions and fully resolve the matter. This event aimed to confront the challenging realities of poverty and the immense obstacles to overcoming it. While not everything unfolded perfectly, we are grateful for the awareness raised around diaper need and the substantial costs of providing essential products to families.
We especially want to thank NOW Wrestling for their incredible support. Their commitment to raising awareness, along with their generous donation of 50/50 raffle proceeds from recent events, has been invaluable in advancing our mission to end diaper need. We’re also deeply appreciative of the wrestling organizations and media outlets that helped spotlight this cause, underscoring the importance of addressing poverty and meeting basic needs.
As Jacob Fatu embarks on his WWE journey, we wish him every success and are inspired by the solidarity shown across the wrestling community in support of this critical mission."

2024-11-06 14:27:20 +0000 UTCI don't think your reading this post right or maybe misunderstanding. He wasn't publicly shamed into paying. Last June he canceled the event because of a family emergency. It just resurfaced now because a guy said that Fatu hadn't paid yet stop, Bir he did. This past May he was on the phone and gave a heartfelt apology into fixing the issue which they were hopeful of. Then he gave the money a month later on a different account they had that they don't use anymore but it was there since June. So they did everything private, it came out in the public, but it was already felt with and they were unaware until recently

2024-11-06 00:55:18 +0000 UTCThat's an expensive dollar store. And I've read at a post graduate level since 1997, when I was 15, so comprehension isn't my issue, people trying to spin any situation to fit their own narrative is 100% the issue i have. AKA people like you

2024-11-06 00:48:21 +0000 UTCSorry you have a Dollar Store understanding of the situation and the reading comprehension to match buddy. Have a good one.

2024-11-05 23:49:48 +0000 UTCAs I recall, the charity went public last June and said he "Ghosted" them as well as the person that booked him for quite some time. Taking a year to make amends is worthy of criticism.

2024-11-05 23:44:36 +0000 UTC"Not as terminally online as you" also translates to "i have a life that isn't run by a computer." Just in case you wanted a correct translation from the guy who said it to start with

2024-11-05 23:28:56 +0000 UTCYour statement was... "so what if he made it right, still didn't do it quick enough for my liking". So you, with no stake in the situation, being unhappy is somehow more legit then the workers at the charity being satisfied? Interesting.... not really.... pretentious... Definitely

2024-11-05 23:25:24 +0000 UTCYou might wanna check seans latest tweet turns out he made the repayment on june 22nd but the charity didn't see it , some people owe him an apology

2024-11-05 21:55:05 +0000 UTCJust said it took him being shamed publicly to pay. Direct private contact got no results. I've died on no hill. You're the one who came in with an argument against my statement.
Taters Precious
2024-11-05 21:30:31 +0000 UTC"perhaps im not as terminally online as you" You can more accurately say that you're arguing about things you don't know about for no reason. That's pretty online.
Taters Precious
2024-11-05 21:29:28 +0000 UTCOk so 4 to 5 months ago. perhaps im not as terminally online as you but first i heard, or saw,, about it was September 25th. So still a full 3 months. Either way, "he voluntarily fixed a wrong but took to long to do so for my liking" is a weird hill to die on

2024-11-05 21:28:11 +0000 UTCLmao he deleted it
Taters Precious
2024-11-05 21:26:32 +0000 UTCRead the paragraph above that: "they confirmed that he actually made a full payment in June 2024 that they had overlooked."
Taters Precious
2024-11-05 21:23:44 +0000 UTCJune, actually. That was after he was outed originally.
Taters Precious
2024-11-05 20:53:05 +0000 UTCDid you miss that he paid them back in MAY? That's like 5 to 6 months ago, or... LONG before he was, as you say, "publicly shamed`
Troy A Palek
2024-11-05 20:51:58 +0000 UTChe was publicly shamed by the charity outing him. as mentioned in this very post.
Taters Precious
2024-11-05 20:51:10 +0000 UTCOP is referring to when reddit got big mad about him a few weeks back. they're so tough and cool for talking crap about people on the Internet. don't you know that people like OP are responsible for catching the Boston Marathon Bomber? don't mess with them, bruh. they'll say mean stuff about you in a karma-farming thread.
