Roman Reigns is in charge of The Bloodline, which has grown to become one of the most powerful groups in recent WWE history. The stars of the group are mostly from the famous Anoa’i family line. Now, coming to WWE as part of The Bloodline, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has turned things on their heads.

Fans are sure that The Rock vs. Roman Reigns will be the end of the story as the two battle it out for power. But for now, they seem to have joined forces against Cody Rhodes for insulting the family name. However, with Johnson making an appearance, it seems that one member of The Bloodline has been sidelined in his favor.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), WWE legend Rikishi Fatu jokingly pointed out that he had been pushed to the back of The Bloodline poster, which now featured The Rock at the front, backed up by Roman Reigns, Jimmy Uso, Solo Sikoa, and Paul Heyman. Fatu, in the background, was joined by several Anoa’i wrestlers, including Peter Maivia and Johnson’s father, Rocky Johnson.

The ex-MLW star had backed Roman Reigns at the 2024 Royal Rumble, where Reigns defended his title against LA Knight, Randy Orton, and AJ Styles. So, what fans really want to know is what’s going to happen with the most hated bad team in WWE. Fatu shared the poster, saying, “Why am I in the back of this #Bloodline poster ???? @paulheyman call Cody @CodyRhodes!!”

However, while Fatu has a crisis of identity on being pushed to the back of the poster, several fans pointed out that The Rock seemed to take center stage on the poster, even outshining Roman Reigns. And with good reason, too.

A recently inducted member of The Bloodline, The Rock’s involvement with the group may be leading to a long-predicted split in the stable. This poster may be just another way of widening the rift between The Rock and Roman Reigns as they both battle for the title of Head of the Table.

Johnson was there to talk about their shared family history after Reigns called for a big family feud fight with his cousin Johnson as his demand as the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion. This is when Cody Rhodes stepped in and said bad things about their family tree, which made The Rock fight back, and now it looks like Johnson is on Reigns’ side.

However, while Reigns took it upon himself to induct The Rock into The Bloodline, there could be a civil war coming up soon, and fans can’t wait to see it.
