Roman Reigns got some measure of satisfaction when he defeated his cousins Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu at Bad Blood. He got help from Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and former Bloodline member, Jimmy Uso. The Tribal Chief is set to make an appearance on SmackDown to "sound off" everything that transpired of late.

On November 30, 2024, WWE will host its final "Big Four" premium live event, Survivor Series. What has been a tradition for the last two years is set to continue this time as well, with the WarGames match returning. Dave Meltzer feels there is only one match that warrants the double-ringed structure this year.

Meltzer noted on the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso reuniting is the precursor for what is likely to be a reunion of the original members. He feels Intercontinental Champion Jey Uso and Sami Zayn joining their former leader makes sense even though they left owing to The Tribal Chief's tyrant ways.

Dave Meltzer also reminded of Hikuleo's recent addition to WWE NXT, stating that it is not out of the realm of possibility the Tongan joins his brothers Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa for the WarGames match. On the main roster, WWE has always gone with a five-on-five formation for this stipulation. As of this writing, there are only four members in The Bloodline.

Be that as it may, considering how the company has booked four-on-four WarGames matches in the past on NXT, perhaps they wouldn't stress about it either.


Roman Reigns' former Right Hand Man, Jey Uso, wants Sami Zayn to join in battle against The Bloodline

Jey Uso recently opened up about possibly joining Roman Reigns to fend off Solo Sikoa and the latter's newfound Bloodline. In spite of everything that has happened between him and his cousin, Mr. Main Event is willing to join Roman Reigns, and hopes Sami Zayn will, too:

"I’m looking forward to The Bloodline storyline as much as you all are, because I’ll be honest, I don’t know what we’re going to do, I don’t know what’s going to happen. I don’t know how they’re going to intertwine me back in there… Sami would be my first pick, right? It only makes sense. Hey, we might have other family members, more surprises, man," he said.

Jey Uso is currently in the middle of a rivalry with Bron Breakker. Perhaps the big question is how does these two RAW superstars move to SmackDown just for this fight? Or do they get traded permanently to the blue brand?
