The Bloodline storyline continues to be cranked up with each passing day, whooping for Roman Reigns’ intervention in all senses. To believe that notion, you can take a look at what Solo Sikoa dons on his foot on SmackDown tonight.

Weeks have passed since the self-proclaimed Tribal Chief took the lead of the faction, leading to a massive shift in the group dynamics. Amidst the absence of the Big Dog, Sikoa laid hands on his decision-making power for the group by introducing two new faces, Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa, in the realm of the Bloodline. Now, it seems he is emulating Reigns’ signature style statement (a pair of red shoes) as well. Does that imply the Bloodline 2.0 civil war is getting closer? Let’s see.

Starting from a bunch of tribal tattoos engraved on his whole body to the signature catchphrase, everything about Roman Reigns used to give off a complete gangster vibe during his peak. To add to the essence, a pair of cherry red Jordan shoes used to shine brightly on his feet during most of the TV shows.

Tonight, when Solo Sikoa came out to confront the Wise Man during the opening segment, netizens spotted the same-colored shoe. The former Right-Hand Man is likely preparing to replace the Big Dog in all ways.

In the meantime, let’s scout on the latest updates on the Head of the Table’s return to the fold.

Is Roman Reigns’ rumored return plan nixed?

Roman Reigns underwent a glorified title end with all the frills on the exaggerated WrestleMania Night 2 as the company finally decided to put Cody Rhodes over after repeated setbacks. While most of the fans are convinced that Reigns had the best spell of his career during the 1316+ days of his historic Undisputed Universal Championship run, the man himself felt the need to unload the blow, taking time off for an unspecified period ever since. Meanwhile, the Samoan heavyweight engulfed himself in the filming of his upcoming movie, Good Fortune. Given the shooting had been wrapped up a few days back, speculation about the Tribal Chief’s grand comeback started to swirl over.

According to WWE’s official website, Reigns was set to appear on the August 2nd edition of SmackDown, the day before SummerSlam. However, he was seen nowhere in the advertisements released for the show, making fans doubt his listing. The other stars who graced the banner include Randy Orton, Bayley, Jade Cargill, Bianca Belair, Cody Rhodes, and LA Knight.

We will need to see if the ads are to hold the suspense longer or if Reigns is really out of the episode.
