Is Roman Reigns no longer favored by the "elders" of The Bloodline? Exploring why it's likely

The last time Roman Reigns appeared on WWE programming was at WrestleMania 40, where he lost the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship to Cody Rhodes. In his absence from the Stamford-based promotion, Solo Sikoa has taken command of The Bloodline forcefully and even took a dig at Reigns.

While many believe that Sikoa betrayed Reigns to become the new Tribal Chief, there is a chance Reigns is no longer favored by the elders of The Bloodline. For those unaware, when Solo Sikoa was introduced to The Bloodline, it was revealed that the elders sent him to be The Enforcer for Roman Reigns.

Hence, there is a chance that after Reigns failed to defend his family's legacy at WrestleMania 40, the elders made a collective decision to elect Sikoa as the new Tribal Chief. This potential angle also explains why Sikoa seems so confident while leading The Bloodline and taking shots at Reigns.

While the angle is speculative, there are chances of it being true. Given Sikoa's actions on SmackDown, it's hard to believe that he is making decisions on his own accord. Hence, it will be interesting to see how this story develops in the coming weeks on the blue brand.
