As WWE fans gear up for an electrifying SmackDown, a potential shake-up looms over one of wrestling’s most powerful factions—The Bloodline. Tonight’s episode could see Roman Reigns making a significant decision regarding Jey Uso’s place in the OG Bloodline. With former faction member Sami Zayn invited for a family discussion, tensions are high, and there’s speculation that Reigns might take drastic steps if Jey prioritizes Zayn over family loyalty.
Here’s a closer look at what’s at stake and how a potential twist could redefine the power dynamics within The Bloodline.
Bloodline Loyalty Tested: Will Roman Reigns Cut Ties with Jey Uso?
The storyline between Jey Uso, Sami Zayn, and Roman Reigns has been heating up since Zayn’s controversial actions at WWE Crown Jewel. Jimmy Uso’s recent statement on RAW left no ambiguity about his and Roman’s stance toward Zayn.
“Neither Roman nor I want to see Sami back,”
Jimmy said, reflecting the bitterness simmering after Zayn’s perceived betrayal.
But now, Jey’s insistence on hearing Zayn out in tonight’s SmackDown episode could put him at odds with The Head of the Table. If Jey appears to side with Zayn, Roman Reigns might consider it a breach of loyalty severe enough to cut Jey from the OG Bloodline.
Sami Zayn’s Return: A Spark for Conflict?
With the WWE Universe eagerly anticipating Zayn’s appearance tonight, all eyes are on the potential fireworks between the YEET Master and The Original Tribal Chief (OTC). Jey’s bond with Zayn has been evident for months, especially during their time on WWE RAW, where their friendship strengthened on-screen. This camaraderie could spell trouble if Jey is seen backing Zayn over his family, fueling speculation about a possible split.
Jey’s willingness to hear Zayn’s side could signal to Roman that his cousin’s loyalty is waning. And for Reigns, who commands absolute allegiance from his inner circle, such perceived insubordination is no minor offense.
“If he can’t stand with the family, there’s no need for a reunion,”
a sentiment that WWE insiders speculate Reigns might echo tonight, emphasizing the divide between Jey’s priorities and the Bloodline’s core values.
A New Addition to The Bloodline? Lance Anoa’i’s Potential Debut
As the Bloodline saga continues to unfold, rumors are swirling that WWE might introduce a new member to the faction—Lance Anoa’i. Reports suggest that Lance has already signed with WWE but hasn’t debuted due to an injury. Fans familiar with Lance know he shares history with Roman Reigns, who once came to his aid against Drew McIntyre and Shane McMahon on an episode of RAW.
If Lance joins the faction, he could be the fresh blood Reigns needs to reinforce loyalty within the Bloodline. Known for his athletic prowess and family ties, Lance could bring a renewed intensity to the group, shifting the focus away from any internal dissent and reaffirming Reigns’ authority.
Adding Lance would also serve a dual purpose for WWE: expanding the Bloodline storyline and creating fresh matchups within the company. With the anticipation of Lance’s recovery and potential debut, Roman may finally get an ally willing to show uncompromised loyalty to his leadership.
The Road Ahead: Will Jey Remain in The Bloodline?
Tonight’s SmackDown episode could be pivotal for Jey Uso’s future. The lingering question remains—will Jey remain in the Bloodline, or will he be cast out for his ongoing support of Zayn? Roman Reigns’ ultimatum may force Jey to choose, and the WWE Universe is buzzing with theories about how this will play out.
Whatever decision Roman makes tonight, the consequences will be felt across WWE, reshaping alliances and possibly setting up new rivalries. Should Jey be ousted, the stage would be set for a captivating feud between family members, reigniting a storyline that has been central to WWE’s recent storytelling successes.
With WWE keeping its cards close to the chest, fans will have to tune in tonight to see how these storylines unfold. Will Jey Uso reaffirm his loyalty to the Bloodline, or will Roman Reigns finally decide that family ties aren’t enough to keep dissenting voices in his inner circle?
