In the latest episode of WWE SmackDown, Paul Heyman spoke with Solo Sikoa after weeks of fearing the new acting Tribal Chief of The Bloodline 2.0. While asking what their plan was moving forward after recruiting Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa, Heyman referred to a line used by Roman Reigns. And that’s not all! During this promo, we also got a hint about the possible debut of another Samoan star.
Fans have chanted “We want Roman” since the Tribal Chief lost his title at WrestleMania XL to Cody Rhodes. Currently, filming his upcoming Hollywood projects, the WWE Universe misses their Head of the Table.

The Wiseman of the Bloodline asked Sikoa what they were doing to ensure Cody Rhodes would be ready for Reigns when he returned. Sikoa answered, “We already have him in check, and he doesn’t even know it.” Hearing this answered didn’t satisfy Heyman, who said, “With all due respect, who’s we?”. But before Sikoa could answer, Kevin Owens’ theme played as he made his way to the ring. This line caught fans’ attention as it was the exact same line Reigns asked Jey Uso years ago.

The segment in question came from the SmackDown, May 21, 2021 episode. Jey Uso used the term ‘We’ when discussing his and Jimmy Uso’s match against The Street Profits. To this, the Tribal Chief asked, “Who’s we?” This was when Reigns tried to divide the Usos and claimed Jimmy was being selfish, and everything Reigns and Jey did was ‘We.’ The level of trust Reigns had in his right-hand man Jey is the level of trust Heyman would’ve wanted to see in Sikoa. Unfortunately, Sikoa never listens to the Wiseman.

While Jacob Fatu has already signed with the WWE and is yet to debut, one theory suggests fans will have to wait longer than expected. Online forums have theorized that the WWE could bring in Jacob and his brother Zilla after Reigns returns. The suggested storyline is that Reigns is no longer in control of The Bloodline, and Sikoa is working independently.
Once the battle for control of The Bloodline begins, Reigns will team up with The Usos to take on Bloodline 2.0. However, a swerve many would not have predicted is the involvement of the Fatu brothers. This new addition to The Bloodline 2.0 may see Sami Zayn return to aid Reigns and The Usos. Fans also suggested The Tribal Chief may get help from Cody Rhodes. With the influence of Avengers: Endgame in mind, fans developed this theory for an epic showdown at WrestleMania XLI.
