“Don’t Need Roman”: Bloodline’s Next Chapter Starring Tama Tonga & Solo Sikoa to Exclude Roman Reigns From Major Role
Follow Us
An unseen new chapter of The Bloodline was ushered in alongside the new glorious era of WWE. Roman Reigns has taken a hiatus from WWE programming after losing the WWE Universal title at WrestleMania XL. Taking time to heal, the Wise Man took on the burden of ensuring nothing extraordinary happened. However, this last episode of SmackDown proved someone else was in charge. Not only that, but things were changing in The Bloodline with the debut of Tama Tonga.
With a possible addition of Jacob Fatu to The Bloodline and Solo Sikoa, now the heir to the Head of the Table, these are some big changes. But the question remains: is Reigns still the Tribal Chief?

While Paul Heyman mentioned that The Bloodline’s story will continue after WrestleMania, no one expected this. The first SmackDown after Mania saw Tonga arrive and take out Jimmy Uso. The once calm and short-spoken Sikoa took to the mic. Bridges were burnt, and new alliances were created. But where is all this leading to? On the latest episode of the Busted Open podcast, this was the very topic in discussion. “You don’t need Roman there every week. The Bloodline is growing. And, here’s the next version of it,” the hosts, Jonathan Hood and Justin LaBar, said at the 19:13 minute mark.

They talked about how more Samoan wrestlers could join the WWE and The Bloodline, which could result in them no longer needing Reigns. The Bloodline is growing, and the seed of this was shown at the WrestleMania XL Kick-off show in Las Vegas. The Samoan heritage tree didn’t take centerstage for no reason. It was a foreshadowing of what was to come. With Tonga in the WWE, the rest will follow, and it is clear that Sikoa is now leading the new Bloodline.
The narrative could develop further if Sikoa leads the new group of Samoans, effectively turning Reigns into a babyface. If the WWE makes Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson the mastermind in the new chapter of The Bloodline, this could set up the much-talked-about The Rock vs. Reigns match. Even the hosts agreed by saying, “This shows you The Bloodline is going to continue on.” With Jacob Fatu on the way and the possibility of Tonga’s biological and adoptive brothers getting a chance to join, many more intriguing chapters in The Bloodline await the wrestling faithful. What do you think about this narrative? Are you excited about Sikoa leading the charge? Tell us in the comments.
