WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi‘s recent message has sparked speculation on whether he is the new Wiseman of The Bloodline. The June 28 edition of WWE SmackDown featured The Bloodline’s acknowledgment ceremony. The segment featured Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, Paul Heyman, and Jacob Fatu. Solo Sikoa asked for recognition from Fatu, Tonga Loa, and Tama Tonga, who acknowledged him as their Tribal Chief.
However, Paul Heyman refused to acknowledge Solo Sikoa, prompting Sikoa to deliver a devastating Samoan Spike to him.
Solo Sikoa was seen screaming at Paul Heyman for refusing to acknowledge him as the new Tribal Chief. Sikoa then ordered Jacob Fatu to deliver a flying headbutt. Later, the faction dragged Heyman near the announcer’s table, where Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa powerbombed him through the table.
Solo Sikoa has been positioned as a potential leader of The Bloodline since WrestleMania 40. At that show, Roman Reigns lost the Undisputed WWE Championship to Cody Rhodes. Following this loss, Reigns has been absent from WWE television. Sikoa’s rise has seen the removal of Jimmy Uso and Paul Heyman from the faction and the introduction of new members.
Without a Wiseman, after the attack on Paul Heyman, The Bloodline has been a threat. However, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi has been sending cryptic messages for several days, leading to speculation about whether he might become the faction’s new Wiseman.
Rikishi’s cryptic message: Taking over for Paul Heyman in The Bloodline
WWE Hall of Famer Sika Anoa’i, father of Roman Reigns, passed away on June 25, 2024. The funeral of the WWE Hall of Famer recently took place on July 6, attended by close family and friends. Amid this, Paul Heyman, who is a very close friend of the Anoa’i family, attended the funeral of Sika Anoa’i. Following the brutal attack on Paul Heyman, a surprising development emerged.
WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi shared a photo with Heyman on Instagram, calling them ‘The Wisemen.’ This has fans buzzing—could Rikishi be stepping in to fill the advisor role left vacant by Heyman’s departure from The Bloodline? or is he paying tribute to Heyman?
Rikishi, the father of Solo Sikoa, has been sending cryptic messages for several days since Paul Heyman was kicked out of The Bloodline. Could he be the new Wiseman for the faction? Only time will tell.
