Dwayne Johnson joined The Bloodline a few SmackDowns ago and the confidence of the evil stable has increased ever since. This also showed that WWE is not afraid of bringing changes to the faction if that is what is required at the moment. Another one of Roman Reigns’ cousins recently spoke about the future of The Bloodline and who we can expect to be called up next.

While talking on his podcast, Rikishi, who is father to The Usos, explored two rising Samoan wrestlers whom WWE might invite and involve in the ongoing storyline. Out of Zilla Fatu and Jacob Fatu, he chose the latter and gave reasons behind his choice.

Rikishi and his co-host TMD were talking about how Paul Heyman has worked with so many of his family members in the past and continues to do so. While the two were still on this topic, Rikishi was met with the question of who, according to him, would be the next Bloodline member that WWE calls up.

There are several speculations online about how either Zilla or Jacob Fatu can become the next member. While answering the question, Rikishi said, “I’d have to go with Jacob as far as experience-wise and ‘ready to fill shoes’ whatever the WWE throws at him.

The WWE legend believes that Jacob is more experienced and can fill the shoes that WWE expects him to whenever he is given the chance to join The Bloodline. Since Rikishi has advocated for him in the past as well, this statement was no surprise.

He further teased the possibility by confessing that he talks to Jacob about this regularly. “Me and Jacob, we’ve been talking, you know, maybe twice a week and so forth, you know, just giving him some encouragement,” revealed Rikishi.

It’s not only the Hall of Famer who has this perspective. But Jacob has also shown that he wishes to join his cousins in the Stamford-based company.

Will Jacob Fatu join Dwayne Johnson soon?

In an interview several weeks ago, Jacob Fatu confessed that he regularly watches his cousins on WWE TV. He revealed that even though he wants to work alongside them, he is still satisfied with his run in MLW. But this gratitude doesn’t mean that Jacob wouldn’t accept an offer if he received one.

He clearly stated that he is grateful for his career and success and wishes to work in WWE, potentially as a Bloodline member. However, he has left the rest of it to God.

Since Rikishi talked about him merely three to four weeks before WrestleMania 40, should we expect to see the free agent show up in Philadelphia and add spice to the drama?
