Former WWE champion to join Roman Reigns for Survivor Series after his recent comments? NOT Jey Uso!
Roman Reigns teamed up with Cody Rhodes to take on The Bloodline at the Bad Blood Premium Live Event. The arch-rivals managed to defeat the team of Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu with the help of a returning Jimmy Uso, who took out Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa.
Jimmy Uso was last seen on the fallout episode of SmackDown after WrestleMania, where Solo Sikoa kicked him out of the group with the help of Tama Tonga. Jimmy returned to the blue brand last Friday and told Roman Reigns they needed backup to take on Solo's Bloodline. While Reigns refused to get help, he seemingly agreed with his cousin after the heel faction outnumbered him in the main event. Big Jim appeared on this week's RAW to convince his brother Jey Uso to rejoin the group, but he declined.
Interestingly, former United States Champion Logan Paul recently expressed interest in wrestling Jacob Fatu down the line. During the latest episode of the ImPaulsive podcast, The Maverick praised The Samoan Werewolf and stated that the latter is on his list of stars he wants to face.
"Very clear rising star, he's [Jacob Fatu] one of the only guys who really stands out to me and I think everyone else sees it. And while I recognize his greatness, part of me also thinks he's on my list and I will be wrestling him in the near future and we're going to be going at it. So, I sort of see him as this competition," Paul said. [From 01:37:25 to 01:37:52]
Paul faced Roman Reigns at the 2022 Crown Jewel Premium Live Event. While the former United States Champion lost the bout, he took the OTC to his limits. Roman has also praised Logan for his passion for pro wrestling, and since Reigns and Jimmy are currently outnumbered, The Maverick could offer his help.
However, the chances of Logan Paul getting involved in The Bloodline saga are low. Currently, Jey Uso is rumored to join Reigns' team for a WarGames match against the Solo-led Bloodline. Still, we must not forget that professional wrestling has a popular saying: "Never say never," and we could see Paul somehow getting involved in the storyline.
What's next for Roman Reigns?
Roman Reigns wrestled in his first match at Bad Blood 2024 since losing his title to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania. The Original Tribal Chief registered a big win at the Atlanta event after he pinned Solo Sikoa. Since his in-ring comeback, fans have wondered when Reigns will be back in action.
According to a recent report from Dave Meltzer, Reigns will compete at this year's Survivor Series: WarGames in Vancouver, Canada. The OTC is also advertised for all episodes of SmackDown till the premium live event next month. It will be interesting to see what Triple H and Co. have in store for The Bloodline saga.
