The Bloodline story has evolved into its next chapter, with Solo Sikoa taking over the leadership of the faction. The Rock and Roman Reigns continue to be missing in action. The debut of Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa has also altered the course of the group. Amid all the ongoing changes, real-life Bloodline member Rikishi had a few words to say.
On the Rikishi Off the Top podcast, the 58-year-old shared his thoughts on WWE adding the Guerillas of Destiny to the Samoan faction. He revealed that he could not wait for the two superstars to come to the WWE. The duo had worked extremely hard to build their brand value in New Japan. Hence, he felt good to finally see them come home.
The Samoan Stinker was elated to see them come in and not be inserted into an angle right away. The duo was inserted into the WWE because they belonged there. He asserted that, with Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso having exited the faction, his son, Solo Sikoa, had taken over control.
These kids, I couldn’t wait for them to come to WWE. They’ve done so much out there, the hard work and building their brand out there in New Japan, that it was awesome to see them finally come home.

Furthermore, Rikishi felt that Sikoa and the two brothers had done an incredible job since joining the Stamford-based promotion. Moreover, he claimed that The Bloodline 2.0 looks fresh. It was nice for him to see new faces of the same family involved in The Bloodline story.
Is Jey Uso on track to re-enter The Bloodline Storyline?
Jey Uso has exploded as a singles superstar since separating himself from his previous faction. With the 11-time Tag Team Champion being on Raw and The Bloodline 2.0 being on the blue brand, he continues to be detached from his family. However, with his brother now also being kicked out of the group, things may soon be about to change.
The semi-finals of the King of the Ring tournament take place next week. There is a one-in-four chance that Uso will face Tama Tonga in the finals of the tournament at the King & Queen of the Ring PLE. With other members of the faction also present at ringside, there is a high chance that the former member of the faction will be roped back in.
In a backstage segment at Backlash France, the Raw Superstar ran into the new version of the group. Solo Sikoa gave him a menacing look; meanwhile, Paul Heyman gave him a look asking for help. If Roman Reigns is to return to WWE and The Bloodline, it is inevitable that Jey Uso will be involved in the storyline as well.
