Ahead of SummerSlam, the IWC was buzzing with the speculation that Roman Reigns could be making his return at the PLE. After losing his WWE Universal Championship to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40, the Tribal Chief took some time off. During his absence, Solo Sikoa took charge of The Bloodline and yeeted Jimmy Uso and Paul Heyman. Sikoa brought in Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu, creating The Bloodline 2.0. Nevertheless, all speculation turned out to be true, as Reigns made his return, but he was alone.

This sparked the question as to why Jimmy Uso and Heyman didn’t come out with Reigns. Uso was also speculated to make his comeback since his exile from The Bloodline. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen tonight either.

Fans have begun speculating that Uso may return to the upcoming SmackDown. The Bloodline 2.0 and Reigns will face off in a showdown on the next episode of SmackDown. Reigns will be outnumbered, and Jimmy could provide some much-needed backup for the Original Tribal Chief.

Heyman will also return when Reigns asks him to, which could be on the upcoming SmackDown. Since Arn Anderson mentioned that he called on some of Rhodes’ friends to help him, it was clear that Randy Orton and Kevin Owens would be there to aid Rhodes. However, the numbers game of The Bloodline 2.0 was too much.

This left room for Reigns to come out and take out Sikoa, allowing Rhodes to pick up the win and retain his title. Only time will tell how the WWE Universal champion will thank his former rival for his aid. The Bloodline 2.0 received another setback in the form of Jacob Fatu’s injury.

With the Original Tribal Chief back in the WWE, fans now want to see Reigns face Sikoa. This could take place at the upcoming Bad Blood PLE with a possible Civil War between OG Bloodline and The Bloodline 2.0 at WarGames. All this will build up to the final reveal, which could paint Dwayne Johnson as the real mastermind of The Bloodline 2.0. The Rock vs. Reigns was set for this year’s Mania but had to be changed because of fan backlash.

It’s been reported that the match has been penned down for Mania 41, and starting with Reigns’ return, a buildup for the marquee match could be in motion. Now, Reigns will have to reunite the OG Bloodline with Jimmy and Jey Uso, a possible fourth member, and Paul Heyman.
