The new Bloodline could soon get bigger, as Hikuleo is now reportedly done in NJPW and free to join his family in WWE.
More: Is There Concern For Incoming Member Of Bloodline?
We have not seen Roman Reigns since his historic run came to an end in Philadelphia at WrestleMania 40. He is expected back soon enough, of course. In the meantime, his cousin Solo Sikoa has filled the power vacuum. He’s pushed out brother Jimmy Uso and brought in Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa. Paul Heyman is still around, clearly concerned for how the latest iteration of the Bloodline has been assembled. But, the Bloodline could get bigger still, as Hikuleo is now reportedly done in NJPW.
How many more?
This would be yet another family tie into the Bloodline. His addition to WWE and the group is expected, with his NJPW obligations said to be completed as of June 9. That report comes courtesy of Bodyslam.net. Hikuleo is the brother of Tama Tonga. Both Tama and Hikuleo were adopted by the legendary Haku, who’s son is…Tonga Loa. Provided the expectations come true, Hikuleo would give the group yet another member, and he would also make them bigger in terms of size. The likely addition stands a towering six foot eight inches tall. As if the faction needed more intimidation.
The probable addition comes as we still await the arrival of Jacob Fatu. It was reported around the time of WrestleMania that Fatu was signed, sealed and delivered to WWE. While that deal may be done, WWE is taking it’s time in making him debut. In fact, when Tonga Loa debuted in France, it came as a surprise. In part, some didn’t realize he was free to come to WWE yet, and partly because many expected Jacob Fatu to be the next debut.
All this means that the Bloodline is getting bigger, and sets up things to be quite interesting when Roman Reigns returns.
