Former WWE Champion to teach Roman Reigns a lesson by costing him Tribal Combat match? Potential twist on RAW’s Netflix debut explored

Since his comeback at SummerSlam 2024, Roman Reigns has been gunning for his former enforcer, Solo Sikoa, who has taken over his position as Tribal Chief and claimed the pride of "Ula Fala" from the former Undisputed WWE Universal Champion. After months of struggle against Sikoa and his heel stable, Reigns has finally secured a singles match against Solo, which will serve as the ultimate opportunity for him to regain his pride.

This week's Friday Night SmackDown saw Roman Reigns call out Solo Sikoa to a Tribal Combat match where both Tribal Chiefs will clash one-on-one, and the survivor of the bout will be exalted as the rightful Tribal Chief. This high-stakes match is set to take place at the RAW Premiere on Netflix on January 6.

​

In a shocking twist, the WWE Universe may see former WWE Champion Drew McIntyre interfere during the Tribal Combat match and cost Roman Reigns this crucial match. The Scottish Warrior made a surprising return after Seth Rollins defeated Sami Zayn on the December 2 edition of RAW and subsequently targeted Zayn.

On the latest episode of SmackDown, Drew McIntyre targeted the injured Jimmy Uso, and after his historic win tonight, The Chosen One noted it was 'One down and four to go,' which could be taken as a clear warning to Reigns.

Roman Reigns may end the Bloodline saga before WrestleMania 41

The Bloodline saga has been an enthralling storyline for months and can be labeled as one of the top feuds in recent years. During his promo video, The Original Tribal Chief conveyed that both Bloodlines have achieved significant triumphs against one another, and now he seeks to fight Sikoa in a fair bout.

It appears that if Reigns secures a substantial victory and reclaims his "Ula Fala" at the RAW Premiere episode on Netflix, the Tribal Combat match could signify the end of the Bloodline saga for the time being at least.
