Roman Reigns' cousin Afa believes The Rock wasn't the biggest return at WWE Bad Blood: "That was the one I was waiting for" (Exclusive)
Former WWE Superstar and Roman Reigns' cousin, Afa Anoa'i Jr, recently gave his thoughts on a major return at Bad Blood 2024. The Rock was not the only return on the show, as Jimmy Uso also made his comeback to help his cousin.
Amid Roman Reigns' absence from television after WWE WrestleMania XL, Solo Sikoa went rogue and brutally attacked Jimmy Uso. Since then, the former Tag Team Champion did not make any appearances on TV until Bad Blood.
Jimmy finally returned to WWE TV at the PLE to help his cousin, Reigns, as he took out the Tongan brothers to even the odds for The Original Tribal Chief and Cody Rhodes against The Bloodline.
However, before the show ended, The Rock also made a brief appearance while Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes were standing inside the ring after their win.
During the latest edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Enter The Bloodline, Afa Anoa'i Jr. talked about The Rock's return, saying he was excited to see the build-up heading into WWE Survivor Series.
However, the former WWE star then gave his take on Jimmy Uso's return, saying that it was the one he was waiting for.
Afa also mentioned that he was excited to see Jimmy back in the spotlight alongside Roman Reigns.
"Oh, to me that was it. That was the one I was waiting for, you know what I mean? As one of his cousins and I was excited to see him back on TV, back in the spotlight, back with his cousin, Roman [Reigns]. And yeah we rocking," he said. [2:20 - 2:35]

Another real-life Bloodline member talked about Jimmy Uso's return at WWE Bad Blood
During Sportskeeda Wrestling's Bad Blood post-show review, real-life Bloodline member and The Rock's cousin, Lloyd Anoa'i, said he knew Jimmy Uso was returning at Bad Blood.
Lloyd also mentioned that it was the right time to bring the former Tag Team Champion back into the mix.
"I knew he was coming back eventually. I kind of felt he would probably be back, uh, tonight at Bad Blood. You know, he's been out for a while. Last time I saw him, he was at my dad's funeral and all that, and we were talking for a little, but he didn't say much. But in my gut feeling, I knew it was the right time to bring him back," Lloyd said.
It remains to be seen what the Stamford-based promotion has planned for Jimmy Uso's future in The Bloodline.
