The Formation of The Bloodline

In 2020, Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman came together to establish The Bloodline in WWE. This faction later welcomed Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, and Sami Zayn. Eventually, Solo Sikoa also joined the group. Following his loss at WrestleMania last year, Roman took a hiatus from wrestling. During his absence, Sikoa formed a new iteration of The Bloodline, incorporating Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu. The revamped group received positive comparisons to the original. The members, including Roman Reigns, The Usos, and Sami Zayn, reunited and achieved significant milestones. Jey Uso continues to support his brother Jimmy, striving to involve him in the faction. However, Sikoa's trust in Fatu appears to be wavering, prompting him to seek new alliances, potentially with Jimmy, as hinted by the company.

SmackDown Match Highlights

During SmackDown, Jimmy Uso and Rey Phoenix faced off against Jessie Mateo and Jacob Fatu, with Solo Sikoa accompanying the latter duo at ringside. Ultimately, Fatu and Mateo emerged victorious, but the match was fraught with tension. Sikoa attempted to mediate between the two, but Jimmy was taken down during the bout. Sikoa then reached out to Jimmy from the arena, suggesting he join The Bloodline, expressing his continued affection and desire to work together. However, Jimmy did not respond and ended up losing the match.

Potential Betrayal on the Horizon

Tensions are escalating between Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu. Sikoa has indicated that he considers Mateo and JC Mateo as family, while Fatu remains skeptical of Mateo's intentions. Their relationship has been deteriorating since the beginning of the year. Fatu secured the US Championship at WrestleMania 41, but Sikoa admitted to orchestrating an attack that helped him retain the title. This situation has led to friction, particularly with Kofi Kingston expressing his anger towards Sikoa. As events unfold, the dynamics within this group are likely to become even more complex.
