For years now Roman Reigns has been the top star in WWE, but it’s been a few months since fans have seen The Tribal Chief. Reigns dropped the Undisputed WWE Championship to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40 and he hasn’t made an appearance on WWE programming since.
With Roman absent Solo Sikoa has taken control of The Bloodline and recently he’s set his sights on Cody Rhodes’ Undisputed WWE Championship. During an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, Triple H was asked about the return of Roman Reigns and he teased that The Tribal Chief will only be able to sit on the sidelines for so long.
“When you talk about Tribal Chief you’re talking about Roman Reigns, no matter who lays claim to that now. You see The Bloodline carrying on, you see Solo putting himself out there as the Tribal Chief, you see Tama Tonga coming in, you see Tonga Loa coming in. You see those guys start to run wild, and then the game changer happens of Jacob Fatu comes in, The Samoan Werewolf. Dude, he’s a game changer.
“You very clearly see that shift of ‘we’re running the show now’ this is the new Tribal Chief, this is the new Head of the Table and this is where it’s headed.
“That’s only going to last so long before there’s a return, I can imagine. Let’s hope that Heyman’s nerves can take it until he comes back. But it’s an exciting time, because that is ramping up incredibly big, now they’re starting to go directly after Cody Rhodes and the WWE Title, you can feel it ramping up.”
There’s currently no word on when Roman Reigns will be making his return to WWE programming, but it is expected that Solo Sikoa will be challenging Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at SummerSlam.
