The WWE universe is abuzz with speculation about the future of The Bloodline, and Rikishi, WWE Hall of Famer and father of Solo Sikoa, has added fuel to the fire. In a recent episode of his podcast, Rikishi Fatu Off The Top, the legendary wrestler expressed interest in joining The Bloodline and even replacing Paul Heyman as the faction’s Wiseman.
When asked about the possibility of taking Heyman’s place, Rikishi claimed he would see it coming from a mile away and wouldn’t hesitate to join the group. He believes it would make sense for him to join The Bloodline, citing his ability to bring balance to the faction and ensure an even playing field on both sides. This comes at a time when tensions are running high between Paul Heyman and Solo Sikoa, leaving fans wondering what the future holds for The Bloodline.
Rikishi also took the opportunity to praise his nephew, Jey Uso, on his impressive run to the King of the Ring semi-finals. Uso will face Gunther this coming week on WWE RAW, with a spot in the tournament final on the line. The WWE Hall of Famer’s praise for Uso’s achievements underscores his vested interest in the success of The Bloodline and its members.
In another interesting turn of events, Rikishi addressed the possibility of his nephew, Jacob Fatu, making his WWE debut. Fatu, known as The Samoan Werewolf, has been generating buzz among fans, but there are concerns that he might outshine his cousin, Solo Sikoa. Rikishi expressed his willingness to manage Fatu, should he need guidance, and even rejected a proposal from a legendary name to come out of retirement to manage the young wrestler.
This development raises interesting questions about the future of The Bloodline. Could Rikishi’s potential role in the faction lead to Paul Heyman’s exit as Wiseman? And what would it mean for the dynamics of the group if Rikishi were to take the reins? One thing is certain – the WWE universe is eagerly awaiting Fatu’s debut, and Rikishi’s involvement could be the catalyst for a major shake-up in The Bloodline.
