After Roman Reigns‘ defeat at the hands of Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40, there have been radical changes. Solo Sikoa may split the Bloodline and one half of it may be created from the ground up. Fans can potentially see a babyface Roman Reigns and on the other side —Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa— will remain in their set place. But who will manage them?
While the split in the Anoa’i faction is still speculative, fans expect it to take place soon. And if it does happen, Paul Heyman will need to make a tough decision. The Wiseman may decide to walk out of Sikoa’s tyranny and they would need a new manager.

If the storyline eventually comes to the splitting of the New family stable, then chances are that Paul Heyman would support his Tribal Chief and walk out of The Bloodline. Or Solo Sikoa could enforce his tyrannical rule further by kicking Heyman out himself just like he did to Jimmy Uso.
A popular wrestling insider imparted his opinion on who the manager for the new Bloodline could be during the Wrestling Observer Live. Bryan Alvarez predicted, “So you need to have the Bloodline split so that you’ve got Paul Heyman, Roman Reigns, you know, the actual, the original trained Bloodline against the savage Bloodline managed by Meng, Haku.”
Although the prospect remains speculative, this could be a grand sight to behold. Especially with King Haku’s sons already present in the promotion. With the rumors of a fourth member joining The Bloodline, Meng’s possibility of showing up as a manager may increase with time.
Haku had joined the wrestling promotion in 1986 as King Tonga. And in the first year itself, he made sure everyone knew who he was after he body-slammed Big John Studd. He eventually established himself as a tough singles competition and joined forces with Tama as The Islanders.
He hails from the island of Tonga in the South Pacific. His intensity during his prime in both WWE and WCW in the 1980s and 1990s is worth remembering. Now, the wrestling legend could find himself more invested in the impending development that could soon engulf The Bloodline.

Hikuleo is the third son of King Haku, who is rumored to show up as the fourth superstar of The Bloodline. His contract with the NJPW is reportedly ending in June 2024. So, speculations have spread like wildfire, suggesting that WWE could recruit him for the storyline alongside his brothers. His brothers have already pledged their services to Solo Sikoa.
With the Guerillas of Destiny already in The Bloodline and Hikuleo rumored to join them as “Talla Tonga”, the chances of their father returning to WWE as a manager could come to fruition. Haku had left the WWE to join WCW as Meng. In Ted Turner’s WCW, he was seen as a mysterious and powerful bodyguard for Col. Rob Parker. He even won the WCW Hardcore Championship eventually but relinquished the title.
Thus, he returned to WWE just one week after this. However, his tenure was short, and he made the decision to retire. Currently, fans are waiting for him to return to WWE once again.
