WWE Superstar Jacob Fatu finally turned on Solo Sikoa at the 2025 Money in the Bank PLE. After initially appearing to help the former North American Champion, the Samoan Werewolf ended up attacking Sikoa and slamming him through a ladder at ringside.
On the go-home edition of SmackDown, Fatu overheard The Street Champion trash-talking him behind his back, which made the US Champ pull the plug on his allegiance to Sikoa. Now, here are three wrestlers who can replace the 33-year-old in The New Bloodline.
#3. Lance Anoa’i could join Solo Sikoa
Lance Anoa’i had inked a WWE contract last summer. The 33-year-old has 15 years of pro wrestling experience under his belt and has wrestled across various promotions, with his last permanent destination being Major League Wrestling till October 2023.
WWE hasn't been able to call upon Lance Anoa’i as he is currently injured. Moreover, a report from the Wrestling Observer Radio’s Dave Meltzer back in March 2025 stated that there is a backstage opinion regarding Anoa’i, which suggests that he may not be able to become a wrestler in the Stamford-based promotion.
However, the wrestling industry is very unpredictable, and the creative team may decide to have Lance Anoa'i join Sikoa's stable to replace Jacob Fatu after all.
#2. Hikuleo could be ready to make his WWE debut
Hikuleo was also signed by the Stamford-based promotion last summer. Unlike Lance Anoa’i, Meltzer’s report stated that the son of Haku doesn’t suffer from any negative backstage opinion. Moreover, he is injury-free and could make his debut anytime, but WWE has yet to find the right opportunity to do so.
Fans had started to discuss Hikuleo’s debut when Jeff Cobb appeared at Backlash 2025, joining The New Bloodline as JC Mateo. With Jacob Fatu gone now, the former NJPW Strong Openweight Champion may finally be called up to join Solo Sikoa.
#1. Solo Sikoa could recruit Jacob Fatu’s brother
Solo Sikoa is an expert in mind games. Now that Jacob Fatu has turned his back on him and cost him the Money in the Bank ladder match, The Street Champion could recruit Fatu’s younger brother, Journey Fatu, to get back at him.
Known in the indie circuit as The Odyssey of Death, several fans want to see the 29-year-old wrestler compete in WWE, especially after seeing The Samoan Werewolf.
Now that the United States Champion has finally broken free from the manipulative tactics of The New Bloodline leader, he could be placed in an uncomfortable situation if Solo Sikoa brings Journey into his faction. It will be interesting to see what lies ahead for the US Champ.
