5 WWE legends who can return to help Roman Reigns against The Rock as Bloodline saga intensifies

The Bloodline saga heated up after WWE Bad Blood 2024 following The Rock's return after witnessing Roman Reigns team up with Cody Rhodes, one of the group's main rivals. While The Bloodline already has the numbers, The Original Tribal Chief can only rely on a few stars.

Roman Reigns has been at odds with Solo Sikoa after the latter took over The Bloodline following WWE WrestleMania XL by changing the group's lineup. Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu joined the group. After Bad Blood, major hints have suggested that The Rock is also aligned with the group. Meanwhile, Roman Reigns only has Jimmy Uso by his side, as Cody Rhodes may now be occupied with Kevin Owens. However, The OTC can be joined by a few interesting names.

For this list, we will look at five WWE legends who can join Roman Reigns against The Rock and The Bloodline.

#5. John Cena has a long history with The Rock and Solo Sikoa

Many current and past WWE stars have a history with The Bloodline and their members, including John Cena. The star had a memorable feud with The Rock in the 2010s then Solo Sikoa in 2023. With two enemies now allying, The Cenation Leader can decide to team with Roman instead.

John and Roman also have a long history against each other, before and after Reigns became The OTC. However, the 16-time World Champion may be willing to look past this if it means teaming up against The Final Boss and Solo.

#4. Brock Lesnar can make his shocking return to WWE

Fans have not seen Brock Lesnar since SummerSlam 2023 where Cody Rhodes defeated him. Reports of him returning earlier this year for Royal Rumble emerged, but those plans may have been derailed after he was allegedly implied in Vince McMahon's lawsuit.

Despite his absence, The Beast Incarnate is still a fan-favorite and could return at some point in the future. Lesnar may have had his issues with Roman in recent years, but Reigns can reason that Solo will be much worse for the roster and also make The Beast remember his history with Dwayne Johnson.

#3. Stone Cold Steve Austin was expected to get involved at WrestleMania 40

WrestleMania XL's main event featured many names despite it only being Roman vs. Cody for the Undisputed WWE Championship. The Rock, Jimmy Uso, and Solo were on Roman's side, while Cody had John, Jey Uso, and Seth Rollins to rely on. Many thought it would also mark an appearance from Stone Cold Steve Austin to take out Dwayne, but it was The Undertaker instead.

Although The Texas Rattlesnake missed this year's 'Mania, he expressed interest in attending the event next year in Las Vegas. With Johnson involved in The Bloodline's storyline going forward, it would be nice to see the former rivals revisit their iconic feud even for a short while.

#2. and #1. Rikishi and Samu can play an important role in Roman Reigns' corner

The Bloodline's storyline is made much more interesting and personal because of the connections to their family, whether they are currently in WWE or not. The Anoa'i family is filled with legendary names, among them are Rikishi and Samu, who can make their presence known in the story.

Roman Reigns can utilize the expertise and experience of the wrestling legends, and even the personal connection Rikishi has with the stars involved. He can mediate tensions between The Usos and possibly talk to his other son, Solo Sikoa, about settling matters in different ways.
