”Solid Uce”: Rikishi Confirms Samoan AEW Star’s Link to Roman Reigns’ Bloodline Amid Rumors of New Member

The Bloodline has been on a mission to expand its wings with an ongoing member addition spree since a WrestleMania setback. Tama Tonga’s unforeseen entry into the faction followed by his brother, Tanga Loa’s high-flying Bloodline debut days later at Backlash prompted fans to look forward to witnessing more twists down the road. AEW star, Toa Liona, stands alongside many others in the fan-enabled future Bloodline lineup.

While rumors have been swirling regarding Liona, a reliable member of Khan’s troop, joining forces with the rival company, Rikishi seemingly dropped a thumbs-up, pinning down his connection with the Anoaʻi family tree.

Rikishi validates AEW wrestler’s Bloodline roots amidst ‘wish version of Bloodline’ claim

On the latest episode of AEW Dynamite, Liona betrayed Swerve Strickland. Shortly after, a massive trolling storm hit the social media walls, claiming a potential Bloodline run for the 33-year-old. They dubbed him as a wish version of Bloodline. The star didn’t let go of the digs without firing back. He obliquely asked fans to continue lowering their spirits with the intended Bloodline insults. He chose to be the same unfazed and proud Bloodline-trained.

WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi also added a new flavor to the matter by interfering with a cryptic tweet. The three-word message from the Samoan veteran reads, “your SOLID uce .. #Adapt’

While this might or might not be a tease of the AEW star’s debut in the Solo Sikoa-dominated faction, Jacob Fatu is almost there but with a grain of salt from the company’s creative.

Has Jacob Fatu’s Bloodline debut been delayed? 

With reports suggesting the most rumored Jacob Fatu has already signed a deal with WWE, fans have been highly anticipating a Bloodline involvement pretty soon. While everything seems to be smooth from the surface, there has been a certain resistance from the higher-ups to inject him into the faction. The real-life Bloodline member proved his worth as an independent wrestler over the years. His longest title reign in the history of MLW speaks volumes of his quality as a performer.

But despite all the positives, a recent report unveiled the reason behind WWE delaying Fatu’s debut for the time being. It suggested the company’s creative wants to safeguard Solo Sikoa’s newfound glory, withholding Jacob Fatu’s interference as they fear that Fatu can overshadow the new Tribal Chief of the division. Now, it will be interesting to see when and how WWE brings the rumored faces into the stable, leading to a more engaging storyline.
