The latest episode of SmackDown seemed to build up The Bloodline 2.0. Under the acting Tribal Chief, Solo Sikoa, the new Bloodline has yet to make its mark on the roster. With the news of new Samoans joining the group, Paul Heyman cut a promo with Kevin Owens at the order of Sikoa. However, the Wiseman used a line that caught the fan’s attention during the promo and could hint at the debut of the much-awaited Jacob Fatu.
It’s been months since Jacob Fatu signed with the WWE. The Samoan is speculated to be the newest member of Bloodline 2.0 but has yet to make his debut. However, during the promo, Heyman said, “He’s recruiting these criminals.” The ‘He’ in question here was Sikoa, and the criminal could be a hint about Fatu.
While many fans believed the Wiseman was referring to Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa, it could be a reference to Fatu. The Samoan was arrested for a robbery he committed when he was 18 years old. This was brought up as a reason for his delayed debut.

The episode of SmackDown showed Heyman’s frustration with the group and how Sikoa has been handling things. He claimed that Roman Reigns would never do such things. The Wiseman also mentioned that they denied people from entering the group by doing background checks on them. This could’ve been a hint that the Samoans who were denied entry into The Bloodline could end up aiding Reigns in his battle with the new 2.0 version of the group.

Reigns is rumoured to return either at or around SummerSlam. Since his departure, most Mania XL fans have been clamouring for his return. While the new Bloodline 2.0 interests fans, they are waiting for the predicted storyline to unfold.

While many fans believe they have predicted the events that will unfold once Reigns returns, some have new theories. These theories suggest Fatu may join forces with Reigns. While this is unlikely, as Reigns will return as a babyface, others believe Fatu may take over The Bloodline 2.0. The WWE Universe has expressed its disappointment in Solo Sikoa as the leader of the Bloodline. Watching Fatu’s indie work, they believe he would make a better leader.
There is speculation that WWE may pivot the storyline and have Sikoa exiled from the group, which is much akin to Jimmy Uso. This will leave Sikoa to reunite with his brothers, The Usos, and cousin Reigns. All this will culminate in Dwyane Johnson being revealed as the Tribal Chief of The Bloodline 2.0. What do you think? Could we be seeing Fatu anytime soon?
