Not Roman Reigns but an 8-time WWE champion could make massive return at SummerSlam 2024, says analyst, for a grand reunion
A backstage personality has opened up the possibility of an absent star returning at WWE SummerSlam 2024 for a much-anticipated reunion. Sam Roberts thinks Jimmy Uso could return at next month's premium live event to finally join forces with his former tag team partner and twin, Jey Uso.
Jimmy lost to Jey on the Night 1 of WrestleMania 40, culminating a months-long feud between the brothers. However, just days later, the former was kicked out of The Bloodline by Solo Sikoa due to his defeat at The Grandest Stages of Them All and has since remained away from WWE's programming. As such, everyone is expecting Jimmy to make his grand return as a babyface.
On his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Sam Roberts predicted that Jimmy Uso could return as a babyface at SummerSlam 2024. The analyst also mentioned how WWE could preserve Roman Reigns' return for a later date and instead have Jimmy reunite with Jey Uso to take on Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa down the line.
"We still haven't seen the return of Jimmy Uso. We haven't seen Jey Uso at all really be brought into the fold of The Bloodline. Will we see Jimmy come back? Because when Jimmy comes back, it's gonna be a big deal. Just seeing an inkling of that old Bloodline will be a big deal. If you get the Usos back together, that in and of itself is a huge deal. The move might be reconnecting The Usos and building towards The Usos vs. The Tongans before you even get Roman Reigns back in the fold because that in and of itself is a huge deal," said Sam Roberts.

Rikishi wants Jimmy Uso to reunite with both Jey Uso and Roman Reigns in WWE
A few weeks back on his Rikishi Fatu off the Top podcast, the WWE legend discussed how Jimmy could finally reunite with Jey Uso, Roman Reigns, and Paul Heyman upon his return.
Rikishi added that he wanted to see the original version of The Bloodline go to war with the one led by Solo Sikoa on SmackDown.
"I think Roman [Reigns] comes back, you know, maybe the twins come back and turn babyface. Tag team back up again, you know, have Paul Heyman with them and go up against Solo [Sikoa] and the crew."
Considering everything that Triple H and his creative team touch turns to gold regarding The Bloodline storyline, it's safe to say they'll do a great job with Jimmy's return as well.
