The Bloodline's Tama Tonga reacts after mocking Roman Reigns on WWE SmackDown
WWE is heading into its final months of 2024, and Roman Reigns has unfinished business with The Bloodline. This week on SmackDown, Tama Tonga reacted to what OTC stands for and mocked Reigns.
Solo Sikoa took over The Bloodline following WrestleMania 40 and declared himself The Tribal Chief. At SummerSlam, Roman Reigns returned to the Stamford-based promotion as the Original Tribal Chief to reclaim his position. The distinction was made to create a difference between Reigns and Sikoa, who is running the current version of the villainous stable on Friday Night SmackDown.
Last night on SmackDown, the current WWE Tag Team Champion, Tama Tonga, was seen mocking the Original Tribal Chief in front of a fan when he asked what OTC stands for. The clip went viral a while later, and Tonga himself replied to the clip on X/Twitter.
"💁🏽♂️💅🏽," Tonga wrote.
This isn't the first time Tonga took a shot at Reigns. He's done it before, but this is the first time he's done it on the same brand under the same storyline.
Tama Tonga was the first member to join The Bloodline in WWE during Roman Reigns' hiatus
Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa have been a decorated tag team and won multiple titles in several promotions before joining the global juggernaut. The two have defeated notable names and made a name for themselves in the wrestling business. Earlier this year, The Bloodline came to a screeching halt at WrestleMania XL.
After Roman Reigns lost, almost every member felt clueless in the Stamford-based promotion. Following the event, Tama Tonga debuted for WWE and joined The Bloodline under Solo Sikoa's leadership.
Tonga quickly reached new heights in the company and became Sikoa's Right-Hand Man in the Original Tribal Chief's absence. Later, he rejoined Tonga Loa and started working in the tag team division. He captured the WWE Tag Team Championship with 'The Samoan Werewolf' Jacob Fatu in the coming months.
Later, Fatu passed one-half of the title to Tonga Loa on Sikoa's orders. Tama Tonga has been an essential figure in Solo Sikoa's Bloodline, and it looks like there's no stopping the dominant stable anytime soon in the Stamford-based promotion.
