History to repeat itself as real-life Bloodline member set to join Solo Sikoa? Exploring the possibility

Since Solo Sikoa took control of The Bloodline, he has made many additions to the faction. Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu are some of the men who have joined Sikoa in his conquest on SmackDown. Similarly, another wrestling superstar could soon join the former NXT North American Champion.

However, unlike the Tongans, this superstar who could join Sikoa is a real-life Bloodline member. The real-life Bloodline member in question is WWE legend Umaga's son, Zilla Fatu. The young wrestling prospect could make history repeat itself by joining Sikoa and his men on SmackDown.

The reason why Zilla would repeat history by joining Sikoa is because he would be following in the footsteps of Jacob Fatu. Back in 2022, Fatu, in a Twitter post, acknowledged Roman Reigns as the Tribal Chief which is now deleted. However, when Fatu made his WWE debut, he decided to surrender his loyalty to Sikoa.

Similarly, in a recent interview, Zilla mentioned he acknowledges Roman Reigns as his Tribal Chief. However, if and when Zilla signs with the Stamford-based promotion, he could join Sikoa and march against Reigns.

While WWE has not signed the legendary Umaga's son yet, rumors suggest that he is a strong candidate to move to the Triple H-led promotion. And given Sikoa's faction is more open to recruitment, it won't be surprising to see him be loyal to Sikoa.

Ex-WWE star has predicted Solo Sikoa will win a major upcoming event

In his WWE career until now, Solo Sikoa has won only one championship and that is the NXT North American Championship. While Sikoa's future seems bright and it looks like he will be a world champion someday, an ex-WWE Star recently predicted Sikoa would win the 2025 Royal Rumble.

The ex-WWE star who made this prediction is Matthew Rehwoldt. During an appearance on the Reeboked podcast, Rehwoldt predicted Solo Sikoa would win the Rumble and further went on to describe what would happen if the Bloodline leader were to win.

Rehwoldt said:

"Here's my off chance right now. Solo wins the Rumble. Roman scr*ws him out of his title shot between Rumble and Mania, ending up with some kind of Solo-Roman confrontation at Mania because they love this freaking Bloodline," he said. [1:05:20 - 1:05:30]

Even though Solo Sikoa might not be the biggest favorite to win the 2025 Royal Rumble, it won't be surprising if he does. After all, Sikoa in recent times, has done some good work as a top-tier heel, and WWE could show faith in him.
