Bloodline story takes a dramatic turn with a historic match set for January 6, 2025
Summary
– Roman Reigns challenges Solo Sikoa to a “tribal combat” match on WWE RAW’s Netflix premiere night
– Reigns aims to reclaim his Bloodline leadership, ula fala, and respect
– Jimmy Uso returned on SmackDown but was attacked by Drew McIntyre.
The December 13 episode of SmackDown at the XL Center in Hartford, Connecticut, delivered significant developments for the Bloodline saga. Roman Reigns announced a “tribal combat” match against Solo Sikoa during WWE RAW’s Netflix premiere on January 6, 2025.
Reigns expressed his determination to regain his legacy, saying, “I take back my Bloodline, my ula fala, and my respect. Once I have that respect, the whole world will have no choice but to acknowledge me.” This match will bring their rivalry to a head, as Reigns and Sikoa leave their tribes as spectators for a one-on-one clash of Tribal Chiefs.
Jimmy Uso made a surprise return during SmackDown following an injury at WarGames but was laid out by Drew McIntyre’s sudden Claymore Kick. This attack added more tension to the ongoing saga.
Survivor Series saw CM Punk assisting the Bloodline in defeating Solo Sikoa’s crew. As Roman Reigns moves into this new chapter, the unresolved favor Paul Heyman owes CM Punk could play a role in what happens next.
This highly anticipated tribal combat match marks a historic way for WWE to kick off 2025 and solidifies Roman Reigns’ quest to reclaim his status as the ultimate leader of the Bloodline.
