Future Plans For Roman Reigns Reportedly Revealed

Roman Reigns took a long hiatus following his loss to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40, and in his absence Solo Sikoa rebuilt The Bloodline. The Tribal Chief made his return to WWE at SummerSlam and he finally confronted Solo Sikoa when he hit him with the Superman Punch followed by the spear.

On the most recent episode of SmackDown, Reigns confronted the new Bloodline once again. Roman attacked Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa, but he did not interact with Jacob Fatu as Fatu was absent from the show following the big spot at SummerSlam where he jumped off the top rope and put Cody Rhodes through the announce table.

Dave Meltzer recently noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that WWE is trying to keep Jacob Fatu away from Roman Reigns because they want to keep Fatu special. The idea is to avoid a match between Fatu and Reigns with the match possibly taking place after Roma faces Solo Sikoa.

“Essentially the deal is they’re basically trying to have Jacob Fatu completely avoid Roman Reigns, because everyone has to sell for Roman Reigns and they want to keep Jacob Fatu special by not bumping around for Roman Reigns.

So he’s going to be gone when Roman Reigns is around until whenever the time is right to hook them up. That’s the situation. I can’t say he’s not hurt but everything that’s happening was planned to happen, I can say that, as far as avoiding those two locking up for now until later when they will lock up. I think they want Roman with Solo first and then Jacob Fatu after that.”

The former WWE Undisputed Universal Champion is currently being advertised for this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown, so it will be interesting to see where the situation involving Roman and The Bloodline goes from here.

Stay tuned for updates.
