Roman Reigns made his return on the season premiere of WWE SmackDown this week. The Tribal Chief came back following Cody Rhodes’ Steel Cage Match against Solo Sikoa, stepping in to help Rhodes even the odds against The Bloodline. With Reigns back in the mix, the storyline involving The Bloodline has intensified, leaving fans eager to see what unfolds next. Here are four bold predictions for what could happen in The Bloodline saga following WWE SmackDown:
**#4. Jimmy Uso and Paul Heyman Could Rejoin Roman Reigns
Jimmy Uso and Paul Heyman have been absent from WWE TV since being removed from The Bloodline. However, with Reigns back on SmackDown, their return could be imminent. Jimmy may align himself with Reigns as his new “Right Hand Man,” while Paul Heyman could once again take up his role as Roman’s “Wise Man.” With Cody Rhodes seemingly siding with Reigns, the return of Jimmy and Heyman would strengthen Reigns’ position against Solo Sikoa’s faction.
**#3. The Bloodline May Lose the WWE Tag Team Championship to #DIY*
Recently, The Bloodline defeated #DIY to capture the WWE Tag Team Championship. However, in a recent exclusive interview, Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano vowed to reclaim the titles from the faction. It’s possible that #DIY could challenge The Bloodline for the championship in the near future. If the match takes place, interference from Reigns and Rhodes could help Gargano and Ciampa regain the titles, potentially costing The Bloodline in a significant way.
**#2. Jey Uso Could Join Solo Sikoa
While many expect Jimmy Uso to align himself with Roman Reigns, Jey Uso might take a different path. Jey is currently feuding with Bron Breakker for the Intercontinental Championship on WWE RAW but is not expected to win the title. This could lead to his return to SmackDown and involvement in The Bloodline storyline. However, in a surprising twist, Jey might choose to join Solo Sikoa’s faction instead of Reigns’. Given his past conflicts with both Reigns and Jimmy, which caused him to quit The Bloodline and leave SmackDown last year, Jey siding with Solo could create an unexpected narrative shift.
**#1. Seth Rollins Could Be Roman Reigns’ ‘Shield’ at WWE Bad Blood 2024
Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns are set to team up against The Bloodline at Bad Blood 2024. However, the faction may attempt to weaken Reigns by targeting Rhodes ahead of the event. If Rhodes is injured, Reigns’ former Shield partner, Seth Rollins, could step in to replace him. While a full Shield reunion seems unlikely due to Dean Ambrose’s current contract with AEW, a partial reunion with Rollins could still happen. Rollins, who has been out following a brutal attack by Bronson Reed, could return to act as Reigns’ “Shield,” mirroring his support for Cody during the earlier feud with The Bloodline.
