The Bloodline saga is arguably the most compelling story ever told in professional wrestling. Although things have slowed down for the faction since WrestleMania XL, WWE continues to add new members and angles to make it more fun. Unfortunately, fans may have to wait till the next PLE.

According to XeroNews, WWE was planning a major angle involving The Bloodline for Clash at the Castle. However, the angle has now been postponed and will occur at Money in the Bank. This makes sense, as none of the faction’s members are scheduled for a match at the PLE. They also have no connection to any of the matches or storylines taking place in Scotland.

This new Bloodline angle could very well involve the debut of their latest member, Jacob Fatu. Fans saw the debut of Tama Tonga shortly after WrestleMania XL, with Solo Sikoa taking over the faction. Further, his tag team partner, Tonga Loa, also joined the Samoan faction at Backlash.

Jacob Fatu has been signed with WWE for months now. He was the Bloodline member that fans expected to debut at Backlash in France. However, WWE masterfully swerved their audience, with Tonga Loa debuting instead. With the summer soon coming to an end, now may be the perfect time for the 32-year-old to join his family. 

The name of the next member of The Bloodline has been revealed

It was recently revealed that WWE has filed a trademark for the name “Talla Tonga.” The company is quick to protect their names and file for names that wrestlers themselves don’t own. Thus, it is highly likely that this trademark will be filed for a future member of The Bloodline.

Rumors are floating around that this name will be taken up by NJPW star Hikuleo, who is Tama Tonga’s brother in real life. The Samoan star recently finished up his tenure by wrestling his last match for the Japanese promotion at Dominion last weekend and is expected to join Solo Sikoa‘s faction soon.

Another potential reason for the delay in the segment could be Hikuleo having issues with non-competes. Although his NJPW contract has officially expired, he may have to wait a while before appearing in other wrestling promotions.
