Tensions within the Bloodline on SmackDown are escalating, with Paul Heyman and Solo Sikoa appearing to disagree, hinting at potential future conflicts. In fact, some believe that Sikoa could kick him out of the stable. Tensions are at an all-time high in the faction and the Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns is nowhere to be seen.
A fact, that is being taken full advantage of by Solo Sikoa and his new partners Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa. But it seems like they will have another member joining in pretty soon. Zilla Fatu recently spoke about the faction and challenged Roman Reigns for the spot as the Tribal Chief of the Bloodline.
Zilla Fatu starts his beef with Roman Reigns
Zilla Fatu, son of the late Umaga (Edward Smith Fatu), is at the beginning of his pro wrestling career. And he will try to follow in the footsteps of his father, who passed away in 2009. Fatu had started training at Booker T’s school; however, they parted ways a few months later. Despite his lack of experience, he is already attracting attention. He has more than a few within the industry talking about whether one day he will join The Bloodline in WWE.
After all, Zilla Fatu is the cousin of Roman Reigns, The Usos, and Solo Sikoa. And with the way the Bloodline is being reformed, Sikoa would not mind if Fatu joined him and his other cousins, Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa. In fact, the son of Umaga has already started talking smack about the former Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns. As in a recent interview with MuscleManMalcolm, Fatu just challenged Roman Reigns to be the head of the table. He first started it all by talking about how everybody in the Bloodline is equal and there is no actual head of the table or leader. “A lot of people think the table is square, right? Yeah, it’s really like this; it’s a circle. It’s really like so everyone just sits together.”
Fatu then called out Reigns for calling himself the head of the table. “So he’s like one of those kids in the school where like the crazy one, where they stand up on top of the table. Yeah, he one of those, you know. Here we are we just looking at him, like, okay, okay, wait till it’s our time. Yeah, but we all, uh, we all try to be the one. But me, personally I feel like I’m the main one.”
The epic of the Bloodline is surely enriched with an interesting new chapter now. As we all witnessed recently when Paul Heyman mustered up all the courage he had to confront Solo Sikoa, who has been acting as a true leader of the Bloodline since post-WrestleMania, Sikoa explained that he would be the head of the Bloodline until Reigns returns, at the behest of the Tribal Chief. Sikoa then asked Heyman to hug him as a sign of peace but also a bit of submission. Heyman obviously agreed, under the very menacing gaze of the companions of the new Bloodline. And now that Fatu is also going against the Tribal Chief, we can surely expect another surprise addition to the Bloodline. But where is the Tribal Chief during all this?
The Tribal Chief is focused on other ventures
After losing to Cody Rhodes in the main event of WrestleMania 40, Roman Reigns took a break to devote himself to other things, and for the record, we have already seen him on a movie set. And being the biggest name in the WWE didn’t just help him get a movie; thanks to his popularity, even big brands have taken notice of him. According to Sneakerfiles.com, Reigns will launch his own collection of Jordan sneakers in 2025.
These shoes will include the word ‘Bloodline’ in honor of the faction of ‘The Tribal Chief’. Also, the Head Of The Table is not completely away from the WWE. As he is actively involved in everything related to The Bloodline since the WWE has decided to give creative freedom to Roman himself on everything related to his character and especially The Bloodline, this will also apply for the next few months. So even if Fatu joins his brothers to fight the Tribal Chief, Reigns will be well aware of it. And well prepared for it. What do you think? Will Zilla Fatu go against Reigns when he joins the WWE? Let us know in the comments.
