The WWE Universe is awaiting the highly anticipated debut of Hikuleo. The Tongan star has reportedly inked a deal with WWE and is expected to make his presence felt very soon. Now, some believe that he could join The Bloodline on the main roster, but it has also been reported that he'll actually appear on NXT. So could he possibly make his debut on NXT by attacking a 30-year-old superstar?

The 30-year-old superstar in question here is Trick Williams. Williams is one of the biggest names on the NXT roster, and the top babyface of the brand. Hikuleo has reportedly been added to the NXT roster internally, and it's safe to say that WWE would like him to make a splash. So, what better way to do so than attacking the fan-favorite?

Looking at the calendar, next week would be ideal for Hikuleo's introduction. Why? Well, NXT, come October 1, 2024, is set to premiere on The CW. That right, after five whole years on the USA Network, WWE's developmental territory is switching broadcasters. Taking this into consideration, they will want to kick things off with a bang, and having the Tongan Giant attack Trick Williams is one way to do it.

With NXT's move to CW just a week away, it will be interesting to see what's in store. But, as of now, any possibility of the 33-year-old superstar attacking Trick Williams remains nothing more than speculation.


Hikuleo was expected to join his brothers on the main roster

As mentioned earlier, there were some rumors suggesting that Hikuleo would be thrust straight into the main roster. If you're wondering why, it's because he has family in high places. According to a couple of reports, the Tongan Giant was expected to be the newest addition to The Bloodline.

The 33-year-old, whose real name is Tautuiaki Taula Koloamatangi, is the son of pro wrestling legend, Haku. As it happens, Haku's other sons, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa, perform on SmackDown, where they serve under the Tribal Chief, Solo Sikoa. Additionally, there were suggestions that he might even perform under the name Talla Tonga.

Now, while he may not be performing on the main roster, there is still a chance he will be introduced as Talla Tonga. At this point, we'll just have to wait and see what WWE Creative has in store for him down in NXT.
