Fans chant for Roman Reigns as Bloodline member is named as the new Head of the Table

A Bloodline member was named as the new Head of the Table tonight on WWE SmackDown. However, fans voiced their displeasure by chanting for Roman Reigns.

The Bloodline has undergone a massive change ever since Roman Reigns lost his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 40. Solo Sikoa, who was named The Tribal Heir by Reigns, took over control of the faction since then and added Tama Tonga to the group while simulataneously kicking Jimmy Uso out of the faction. Since then, The Bloodline have gotten more dangerous.

To make matters worse, Paul Heyman wasn't seemingly informed of this change and looked shocked at Solo's decision. If that wasn't enough, Solo added Tama Tonga's brother, Tonga Loa, into The Bloodline, making the faction all the more dangerous.

Tonight on the blue brand, an annointment ceremony was set to kick off the show. Heyman started by announcing that until Reigns returns, Solo Sikoa will be the new Head of the Table. The fans immediately started chanting for Roman Reigns. Heyman also named Tama Tonga as the Right Hand Man and annointed Tonga Loa as the 'Infamous' Tonga Loa.

It remains to be seen what this means for The Bloodline, especially since the duration of Reigns' absence is not known at this time.

According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
