Roman Reigns to bring back WWE legend after 4 years as the new Wiseman of OG Bloodline? Exploring potential move
Roman Reigns might have to turn to another Wiseman for his OG Bloodline, as Paul Heyman is supposedly unreachable. On this week's SmackDown, Reigns called up Heyman, but the 59-year-old WWE legend's number was out of reach.
Heyman was anticipated to return by SummerSlam along with Roman Reigns, but that didn't happen. As the 2024 Survivor Series: WarGames Premium Live Event is around the corner, The Original Tribal Chief might have to look for another WWE legend to take charge as the Wiseman of his group. The man in question is Anoa'i family member Rikishi.
Father of The Usos and Solo Sikoa, the 59-year-old WWE Hall of Famer might emerge as the OG Bloodline's Wiseman against Bloodline 2.0. Rikishi's involvement in the Bloodline story makes sense as the family tale is getting murkier with each passing day. It's likely to continue until WrestleMania 41 next year.
Reports have suggested that Rikishi might make his presence felt in the Bloodline story in some capacity. Last year, when things went awry in the Bloodline camp with differences between Jey Uso and Roman Reigns, Rikishi teased his potential WWE return.
While speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling's Bill Apter, the WWE legend said he could not comment on his involvement in the program, subtly hinting at his return. However, his comeback didn't take place.
This year, the rumors of his return started floating when Jimmy Uso was trying to convince Jey Uso to join the OG Bloodline in its feud against the Sikoa-led group. The last time Rikishi was seen in WWE was on November 22, 2020, at Survivor Series as part of The Undertaker's retirement ceremony.
If he returns to WWE before Survivor Series 2024, it would be after a gap of four years. Meanwhile, there have also been rumors about Rikishi showing up at WWE Survivor Series on November 30 as The Wiseman of Solo Sikoa's Bloodline. However, this is mere speculation, and nothing is confirmed.
Bronson Reed is supposedly the fifth member of Solo Sikoa's Bloodline 2.0 against Roman Reigns' Bloodline
The 330-pound monster Bronson Reed wreaked havoc on Friday Night SmackDown when he ambushed the OG Bloodline. Roman Reigns' team and the Solo Sikoa-led squad seemed evenly matched before Reed's shocking involvement tilted the odds in the heel faction's favor.
While Solo Sikoa hasn't given any official statement on Reed's involvement as the fifth member, The Auszilla is more likely to assume the role for the Survivor Series: WarGames match.
Roman Reigns is on the hunt for a fifth member of his team, and by far, Seth Rollins is emerging as a probable choice. The Visionary rejected Sami Zayn's request to join Roman Reigns' camp on RAW this week. However, he might think again as his bete-noire Bronson Reed is now involved in the Bloodline saga.
Rollins is slated to face Reed in a singles match on the upcoming episode of RAW. Solo Sikoa and his men are bound to interfere in the bout, which might prompt the OG Bloodline to show up. The Visionary might finally become the fifth member of Roman Reigns' group if they help him tackle the Auszilla on Monday.
