A backstage WWE personality discussed the possibility of Roman Reigns reuniting with a 38-year-old star upon his highly-anticipated return. Sam Roberts thinks The Tribal Chief could mend his differences with his cousin and former stablemate Jey Uso to take on the new Bloodline led by Solo Sikoa.

Things have drastically changed amid Reigns' absence from WWE since he lost his Undisputed Title to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40. Solo Sikoa has assumed the leadership of The Bloodline and has taken certain measures that would surely not go down too well with Roman Reigns. If kicking out Jimmy Uso wasn't enough, Solo, accompanied by Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu even booted out Paul Heyman from the stable during last week's SmackDown.

Recently on his podcast, Notsam Wrestling, Sam Roberts stated that Roman Reigns may not be able to handle the new Bloodline on his own. The RAW Talk host believes Reigns could enlist the help of Jey Uso, with whom he has had a storied history of ups and downs. Roberts thinks that this would further legitimize Jey's "Main Event" monicker and elevate him to another level.

"I think the idea, especially with Jey, is that Roman goes to Jey with hat in hand and Roman acknowledges that Jey is Main Event Jey Uso. Roman looks at Jey as an equal and says 'Jey I need your help.' That would be the difference, that you almost have that full circle moment that Jey has been waiting for since the beginning of The Bloodline. The difference is Roman says 'I need you Jey' and Jey is no longer in a position where he's proving himself to Roman," said Sam Roberts. [From 01:22:09 to 01:22:54]

Bill Apter on Roman Reigns' imminent return

On the latest episode of Sportskeeda's Wrestling Time Machine podcast, Bill Apter predicted that following the attack on Paul Heyman, Roman Reigns' return could be just around the corner. He also believes The Tribal Chief could reunite with Jey and Jimmy Uso and embark on a war with Solo Sikoa and the new Bloodline.

"Paul Heyman went through the table. I thought he was gonna have a freaking heart attack. I really did. So I think similar to the Judgment Day, Roman Reigns is gonna come back and say yes I am still your Head of the Table. Your Tribal Chief. And he, and Heyman, Jey Uso and maybe Jimmy Uso will come back, will have their own Bloodline affiliation and they will feud with the other guys. With the other Bloodline. That's what I think is gonna happen."

Though he's been a heel for the better part of the last few years, there's no doubt that Roman Reigns would receive a thunderous pop when he finally returns to WWE.
