Fans' prayers were answered as Roman Reigns returned in the main event of SummerSlam 2024 to lay waste to Solo Sikoa, helping his arch-rival, Cody Rhodes, retain the Undisputed WWE Championship.
The Original Tribal Chief will finally return home to SmackDown this Friday, and his focus will entirely be on his former Enforcer, i.e., Sikoa. However, the former NXT North American Champion may have plans to ruin Reigns' grand homecoming.
Let's look at three ways Solo Sikoa can ruin Roman Reigns' return on WWE SmackDown.

#3. Solo Sikoa expels Roman Reigns and his family from The Bloodline
While the Original Tribal Chief returned at SummerSlam, Solo Sikoa would not be deterred from his claim, continuing to assume himself as the Head of the Table.
The status gives him the power to make important decisions, like including and expulsing members of The Bloodline. Thus far, Sikoa has added three family members to his squad: Jacob Fatu and the Tonga Brothers.
However, this Friday, he could exercise his self-assumed power by expelling Reigns from The Bloodline. The former Universal Champion's wife and children could be removed from the prestigious family.
#2. Sikoa unleashes his Bloodline on The Original Tribal Chief
Although Sikoa made his intentions clear after WrestleMania XL, fans started taking him seriously once he enlisted the dangerous Tonga brothers and Jacob Fatu into his Bloodline.
Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa are extremely aggressive in the ring; their ferociousness knows no bounds. Add Fatu to the mix, and the current Bloodline seems unstoppable. Sikoa could unleash his henchmen to send a statement to Roman Reigns.
The Bloodline could attack Reigns from behind and unleash a brutal assault that would end with a Samoan Spike. It remains to be seen if and how Jacob Fatu will be used following his injury, but Sikoa and his friends outnumber the Original Tribal Chief, making their job easier.
#1. Paul Heyman returns as Solo Sikoa's Wiseman
The Wiseman, Paul Heyman, was weary of Sikoa's actions in the wake of WrestleMania XL. Heyman's troubles ended brutally when he failed to acknowledge Sikoa as Tribal Chief at Madison Square Garden.
The Bloodline obliterated the Father of ECW, who hasn't been seen since the heinous assault. While the natural course of the storyline entails that Heyman will side with Roman Reigns, WWE could throw a major swerve by having the Hall of Famer side with Sikoa.
Reigns previously stated that he would never have been The Tribal Chief without Heyman as the Wiseman. Therefore, this betrayal will shake the former World Champion and tilt the scales in Sikoa's favor again.
