WWE SmackDown after SummerSlam saw Roman Reigns come face to face with The Bloodline 2.0. After costing Solo Sikoa his match against Cody Rhodes for the WWE Universal Undisputed Championship, Reigns was after something else. Despite having very limited time at the show’s end, fans erupted when the OG Tribal Chief’s music hit. They even started chanting something new in his honor.
Since his return at SummerSlam, fans have been waiting for his appearance on WWE SmackDown. The real Tribal Chief didn’t disappoint despite not being there at the show’s start. At the very end, as Sikoa called him out, Reigns answered. The arena exploded as Reigns came out to face The Bloodline 2.0.
As Reigns laid out Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa, fans chanted “OTC.” Ahead of his return at SummerSlam, he was reported to return with a new moniker. This would be proven right when he came out with OTC merch. OTC stands for Original Tribal Chief, which is what Reigns is. As the OTC laid out The Bloodline 2.0 it was clear that he didn’t need any help in doing so.

This was primarily because Jacob Fatu was out with an injury he sustained at SummerSlam. Fatu is the most dominant member of Sikoa’s Bloodline, and fans are waiting for the OTC to face the Samoan Wearwolf.

Fans have speculated that once Fatu is healthy to make his return, that’s when WWE will bring back Jimmy Uso. Sikoa exiled his cousin from The Bloodline on the first SmackDown after Mania 40. He was replaced with Tama Tonga, and this was done because he lost to his brother Jey, who was on the grandest stage of them all. However, with the OTC back, it could be time for Jimmy’s revenge tour.

Have an interesting take?
Fans want to see the OG Bloodline led by Reigns vs. The Bloodline 2.0 at SurvivorSeries. This is a WarGames match just waiting to happen, and it will be a massive draw. However, until the entire OG Bloodline is reunited, Reigns and Jimmy will have to handle business. Jey Uso and Sami Zayn, the other members of the OG Bloodline, are currently on RAW with their own storylines.
While the reunion is inevitable, Jey and Zayn are the victims of the group they once were part of. Jey was among the few people who pinned Reigns during the unstoppable reign. There will be weeks of convincing before these two join forces with Jimmy and Reigns. Did you like the beatdown by the OTC? Tell us in the comments.
