Major update on real-life Bloodline member rumored to be heading to WWE - Reports

The Bloodline is one of the most powerful factions in WWE and it could be getting even stronger now that a major star has reportedly become a free agent.

Roman Reigns is the leader of The Bloodline and has relied on his stablemates to help him maintain his historic run as Undisputed WWE Universal Champion. The Tribal Chief was able to retain the title in a Fatal 4-Way match this past Saturday night at Royal Rumble 2024.

According to a new report from Cassidy Haynes of BodySlam.net, former MLW Champion Jacob Fatu is a free agent. Despite not being under contract, the report added that Fatu will be appearing for MLW this weekend and is set to battle Yuji Nagata on February 3. Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful has added that he has reached out to MLW about Fatu's contract situation but has not heard back.
