Reigns Teases New Merch as Power Struggle with Solo Sikoa Heats Up
Summary
– Roman Reigns may be bringing back his “Your Tribal Chief” nickname, as seen on a new T-shirt in a recent TikTok video.
– Reigns shared fitness advice, but fans focused on his YTC-themed shirt, a nod to a name he used during his Bloodline rise.
– The October 18 SmackDown featured Solo Sikoa and The Bloodline attacking Reigns, escalating their ongoing battle.
As hinted by a recent video shared on TikTok, Roman Reigns, a dominant figure in WWE, might be reviving a title from his past. Currently known as the Original Tribal Chief (OTC), Reigns is embroiled in a heated feud with The Bloodline, with Solo Sikoa challenging his authority. This ongoing struggle over the Ula Fala, a symbol of leadership within the group, has kept fans on edge.
When asked how he maintains his impressive physique, Reigns responded: “You’ve gotta be miserable all the time until you get so used to it that you’re not miserable anymore. There’s no secrets, there’s no shortcuts—eat clean, work hard, get in shape.” While his commitment to fitness was clear, fans quickly noticed the T-shirt he wore, featuring the initials YTC—short for “Your Tribal Chief.”
This name is a throwback to when Reigns established his dominance within The Bloodline, and its possible return has sparked speculation. The YTC T-shirt has yet to appear on WWE Shop, though other Roman Reigns-branded items, like slide sandals, have recently been released.
The timing of this tease is significant, as Reigns’ feud with The Bloodline escalated during the October 18 episode of WWE SmackDown. Solo Sikoa led an attack on Reigns and Jimmy Uso, highlighting the internal power struggle. Reigns could be using the return of the “Your Tribal Chief” nickname to assert his authority during this turbulent time.
