The Bloodline saga continues to be the focal point of WWE's storytelling heading into the end of 2024. As Roman Reigns gets set to team up with the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes to take on Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu at Bad Blood this Saturday, October 5, several other major Bloodline angles could also take shape in the coming months.
It is expected that Reigns will re-form his original Bloodline and go after Solo Siko. It is unclear who will join The Original Tribal Chief against Solo and the faction's new version.
At the moment, only Jimmy Uso is set to return and is expected to side with Roman Reigns, aiming to get revenge on Solo Sikoa, who kicked him out of the faction six months ago.
That said, we take a look at five superstars who are not expected to join The Bloodline civil war soon.
#5. Hikuleo
Hikuleo is another real-life member of The Bloodline and has been linked to a move to the main roster and a reunion with Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa, after their days in NJPW.
After leaving NJPW earlier in the summer, there was speculation that he would move to SmackDown. However, this is not expected to happen soon, as Hikuleo will reportedly join the NXT roster, meaning that he will spend his days in NXT before moving to the main roster.
#4. Rikishi
Hall of Famer and the father of Jimmy and Jey Uso, Rikishi, has been very active on social media about his sons' booking and WWE's plans for them going forward. He has also shared his thoughts on The Bloodline civil war and there were rumors that he would replace Paul Heyman as The Wiseman.
The WWE legend had teased a return to WWE back in May, but the creative team currently has no plans for Rikishi to become part of the storyline going forward, as per the latest reports.
#3. Paul Heyman
Paul Heyman has been out since early in the summer when Solo Sikoa and The Bloodline assaulted him and kicked him out of the faction. The return of Roman Reigns at SummerSlam fueled reports about The Wiseman's comeback, with the WWE Hall of Famer recently teasing a reunion with Roman Reigns.
''I have always [and ALL WAYS] acknowledged My Tribal Chief!'' Paul Heyman posted on an Instagram story.
Despite his message on social media, though, it is unclear if Paul Heyman will return soon to join The Bloodline saga. He stated that he would like to return in a capacity that would be justifiable for his character and not just be Roman Reigns' lackey.
Recent reports also suggested that he may get a new client and there may be a shift in dynamic as far as Heyman and The Bloodline are concerned.
#2. Sami Zayn
Sami Zayn is another superstar who was linked to a move to SmackDown and a reunion with Roman Reigns. Until now, though, it is unclear if this move will happen soon.
Zayn has stepped up as Gunther's next opponent for the World Heavyweight Championship and the two will collide on the October 7 episode of Monday Night RAW.
The two superstars could also continue their rivalry through Crown Jewel, which is set to take place on November 2, while Zayn has been linked to another storyline, where he will team up with Jey Uso to take on Finn Balor and JD McDonagh for the World Tag Team Titles on RAW. With that in mind, an imminent move to the blue brand is unlikely for Zayn.
#1. Jey Uso
Jey Uso has been on fire lately, after becoming the new Intercontinental Champion on RAW. The Yeet Master won his first major singles title after 14 years in WWE and it seems he will not leave the red brand anytime soon.
Jey Uso appears to be a pivotal member of The Bloodline saga, but the earliest he could become part of the rivalry is the Survivor Series: WarGames in late November.
Still, WWE hasn't provided any hints on how and when Jey Uso will move to SmackDown to reunite with The Original Tribal Chief against Solo Sikoa.
