Cody Rhodes has found reliable allies in his war against The Bloodline on WWE SmackDown, but he is still outnumbered by the Solo Sikoa-run faction. However, Triple H could book The American Nightmare's trusted friend from RAW to make a surprise appearance on the blue brand this week.
The name in question is Jey Uso, who quit SmackDown after falling out with The Bloodline. Cody Rhodes brought him back on RAW and the two became good friends as top babyfaces, even winning the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship together. Main Event Jey could return the favor by helping Rhodes on Friday.
With Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa by his side, Solo Sikoa was already wreaking havoc on the blue brand. Jacob Fatu's addition to The Bloodline has turned the odds in their favor against Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, and Kevin Owens.
This weekend at Money in the Bank, The American Nightmare will join forces with The Viper and The Prizefighter to take on The Bloodline in a six-man tag team match. The two sides were involved in a brutal altercation last week, and things could get worse on SmackDown's final show before the upcoming premium live event.

This could set up Jey Uso's epic return to the show, and he could confront The Bloodline for its recent actions. It is worth noting that Paul Heyman had secretly asked for Jey's help when the two briefly met backstage at Backlash France. He could help Cody Rhodes in a potential brawl with The Bloodline this week and tease a future feud with Solo Sikoa.
Jey is a 10-time Tag Team Champion in WWE. He will compete in the Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match on July 6.
Paul Heyman sent to hospital following a brutal attack on WWE SmackDown
Last week on SmackDown, Solo Sikoa officially welcomed Jacob Fatu to The Bloodline and hailed him as The Enforcer. He then anointed himself The Tribal Chief and demanded Paul Heyman 'acknowledge him' as the new Head of the Table.
However, The Wiseman remained loyal to Roman Reigns and soon paid the unfortunate price on SmackDown. Sikoa hit Heyman with a Samoan Spike before ordering a vicious attack. In the end, The Bloodline put Heyman through the announce desk, following which the Hall of Famer had to be rushed to the hospital in an ambulance.
Sikoa repeatedly insisting that Roman Reigns isn't coming back, coupled with the recent attack on Paul Heyman, has raised speculations over the 39-year-old's return. Many believe that The Wiseman being hospitalized would push Reigns to return and start a civil war within The Bloodline.
