3 WWE stars who could be a part of the Bloodline WarGames Match if it is 5-on-5
Since 2022, WWE's historic Survivor Series Premium Live Event has included a unique match that rarely featured on the company's programming prior to NXT rebooting it in 2017. That match is the WarGames match.
Featuring four or five superstars on two separate teams, the match sees two rings combined together with the squared circles being surrounded by a steel cage. A member of each team starts in the ring before one member from each appears every two minutes. WarGames officially starts when all members of both teams are in the ring.
This year it seems all but a certainty that the new look Bloodline consisting of Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tanga Loa will take on the reformed original lineup of the stable, Roman Reigns, Jimmy Uso, and Jey Uso, with the latter still looking for a 4th member.
Survivor Series is mostly known for having a traditional 5 on 5 tag team match therefore it is not out of the question that a few more superstars could be added to the contest in the weeks to come.
#3. Another member of the Anoa'i family bulldozes his way into WWE
This year, it seems that the legendary Anoa'i family has an endless supply of talented performers who are ready to join the company. One star who many feel is destined to join the fray in WWE is the son of the late great Umaga, Zilla Fatu.
The 25-year-old is currently training at Booker T's Reality of Wrestling promotion, a company that has a lot of ties with WWE. Having honed his craft for the past couple of years, and with Roman's team currently needing at least one more member, the young star could shock the fanbase by joining forces with Reigns and The Usos instead of Sikoa and his faction.
During a recent interview on the Wrestle Era Podcast, Zilla Fatu stated that whether he works with his family or not, he feels that his future certainly lies within World Wrestling Entertainment:
"I would love to be there with my family, but Triple H, the creative team, the whole WWE organization, they have a way to incorporate me. So whatever they want to incorporate me into the storyline or me doing my own thing or me and R-Truth [laughs], you just never know. So right now, I just can’t call it, but I know that I’m destined to be there."
#2. The American Nightmare teams with the OTC once again
One person who has certainly been a thorn in the side of whatever iteration of the Bloodline is seen on screen is Cody Rhodes. The American Nightmare was key in bringing down the original version of the group with him putting a nail in Roman Reigns' time on top when he beat him at WrestleMania 40 earlier this year to become the new Undisputed WWE Champion.
Since then, things have taken a very surprising turn as Rhodes and Reigns recently put their differences aside and teamed up to take on Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu at Bad Blood last month.
Speaking with The Flagrant Rhodes heaped plenty of praise on the original Tribal Chief as well as addressing those who criticize Roman's lighter WWE schedule:
"He’s incredibly special and done so much for WWE. When people get onto him about the limited dates and stuff, he was the thing. He did all this and earned everything he’s got right now."
Whilst Roman will still want to get his championship back from Cody Rhodes, the pair have shown in recent months that they can co-exist in order to take on a foe that threatens both of their goals.
Therefore do not be surprised if Rhodes enters the fray on November 30th at Survivor Series by teaming up Roman and The Usos.
#1. The Honorary Uce chooses a side
At Crown Jewel last week, fans got a taste of the original version of The Bloodline lineup as Sami Zayn helped Roman and The Usos in their match against Solo Sikoa and his group.
Despite some friction between Zayn and Jimmy Uso currently taking place on RAW and SmackDown, it seems like almost a guarantee that the former Honorary Uce will once again join forces with Roman, Jimmy and Jey inside WarGames, just like he triumphantly did in 2022.
One person who thinks Sami would be perfect to rejoin the group is The Usos and Solo Sikoa's father, the WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi, who recently gave his thoughts on the matter whilst speaking on the Off The Top podcast:
"I think Sami Zayn fits exactly into The Bloodline. You can never replace the originals — we go back a few years or so. We talk about the original Bloodline so there’s that one piece that’s missing now."
Sami's involvement with The Bloodline in the latter stages of 2022 and the early parts of 2023 is arguably the best storyline that WWE has ever produced, and therefore fans are determined to see Zayn back with his 'adopted' family once again.
