Tama Tonga is driving full steam ahead in the King of the Ring Tournament. The Bloodline member is now in the semifinals of this prestigious competition and will face Randy Orton next week on SmackDown in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The winner will go on to battle for the crown in the final at the King and Queen of the Ring PLE on May 25.
As we are just a week away from the crowning of the new King of the Ring, let's discuss several signs indicating that The Bloodline member might win the KOTR Tournament.
#3 The momentum of The Bloodline

One primary indication of Tama Tonga winning the tournament is the current momentum of The Bloodline. Since his debut in WWE, Tama has been riding a wave of success alongside Solo Sikoa.
This is evident from his victories in the earlier rounds of the KOTR Tournament and their Street Fight triumph at Backlash France. So, it's probable that WWE might want to capitalize on this momentum by crowning Tama Tonga as the new King of the Ring.
#2 Tama Tonga is on a personal winning streak
Another compelling sign pointing towards Tama Tonga winning the King of the Ring Tournament is his current personal winning streak in WWE. This includes consistent victories in house show matches as well, notably in tag team bouts alongside Solo Sikoa.
This winning streak indicates WWE's clear intention to establish Tama Tonga as a dominant force in the company. So, to strengthen his position and elevate his prominence, the company could opt to crown him as the King of the Ring.
#1 WWE might have a plan to book Tama vs Jey Uso in the final
Tonga isn't the sole contender with Bloodline connections in the KOTR Tournament as former member Jey Uso also stands among the semifinalists. Main Event Jey is set to lock horns with Gunther in the upcoming episode of Monday Night RAW. The victor of this bout will face the winner of Tonga and Orton in the final of the King of the Ring Tournament.
So if Uso manages to overcome The Ring General and advance to the final while Tonga triumphs over the Viper then this could be another indication of Tonga's potential victory in the KOTR Tournament.
This scenario is likely to serve as a precursor to Jey's return to The Bloodline storyline. It's conceivable that Solo Sikoa and Tanga Loa might aid Tonga in securing victory, prompting Jey to rejoin The Bloodline saga, seeking retribution. The revitalization of Jey Uso's role and the hinted Bloodline feud at Backlash France further strengthen the likelihood of this scenario unfolding.
