TLDR

Jacob Fatu revealed that drug problems and personal struggles nearly destroyed his wrestling career, causing him to miss wrestling bookings including a show for Booker T. Speaking with Peter Rosenberg, Fatu admitted he had "one foot in the streets and another foot in wrestling" and that his addiction worsened during the pandemic, but he believes the timing of his WWE career worked out perfectly because joining earlier would have likely resulted in his release.
