Roman Reigns may have subtly confirmed his role in WWE after his retirement, on SmackDown

Roman Reigns had a segment with his cousin Jimmy Uso on television for the first time since WrestleMania XL on the latest episode of Friday Night SmackDown. Jimmy kicked off the show, where we saw his connection with fans before he could say much about Solo Sikoa. The OTC came out and met him and asked fans to acknowledge “Big Jim.” Reigns even subtly hinted at his role in WWE after his in-ring retirement.

During the segment, Roman Reigns said, I am not an older brother. You have to understand I am not a Wiseman. Yet.” With his statement, The Original Tribal Chief created a buzz online, where fans pointed out that The OTC could act as The Wiseman of the Tribal Hier once he decides to end his career inside the squared circle.

However, during the same segment, Roman Reigns expressed that, for now, he is The Tribal Chief, and he doesn't like his current position. He even referred to himself as the G.O.A.T. Meanwhile, Jimmy Uso told the OTC they needed help since they were hugely outnumbered by Sikoa's Bloodline.

In the main event, Jimmy Uso faced Solo Sikoa in a singles match. The self-proclaimed Tribal Chief picked up the win with the help of Jacob Fatu. Immediately after the bout, The Bloodline launched an attack on Uso. Reigns came in to save Jimmy, but it didn't help against four destroyers. In the end, Jimmy was once again seen telling Reigns they needed backup.


What’s next for Roman Reigns?

Even though Jimmy Uso is back and is with Roman Reigns, they still need assistance against the seemingly unstoppable Bloodline as they fell short in numbers against the group this week.

The Original Tribal Chief wrestled for the first time since WrestleMania 40 at Bad Blood 2024, where he emerged victorious in a Tag Team Match. According to a previous report, he will “definitely” compete at Survivor Series: WarGames 2024, and all hints point to a possible WarGames Match at the PLE in Canada. In the coming weeks, we might see some emotional returns and reunions.

It will be interesting to see what the creative team has in store for The Bloodline Saga.
