The Bloodline is arguably the most dominant faction in WWE and pro wrestling history. The stable was first formed under Roman Reigns, who eventually added Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, The Rock, Sami Zayn, Paul Heyman, and Solo Sikoa to the lineup.

The current incarnation of the group features four stellar performers. Solo Sikoa is the leader and he's joined by Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa. Now, the real-life Bloodline's influence in the company grows thanks to the impending arrival of Hikuleo.

The big man has reportedly been signed by the Sports Entertainment Juggernaut. For those unaware, he is a graduate of the Team 3D Academy and has found success in Japan. He is also a towering 6'8" and weighs in at around 260 pounds.

Now that the monster of a man is allegedly World Wrestling Entertainment-bound, many are curious about how he may debut. This article will take a look at a handful of ways the star can make an impact immediately upon debuting.

Below are four ways Hikuleo can debut in WWE.


#4. He can help The Bloodline win the Tag Team Gauntlet on SmackDown

A major match has been announced for WWE SmackDown next week. The Sports Entertainment Juggernaut is set to host a WWE Tag Team Championship #1 Contender's Gauntlet Match. The winners will challenge DIY for the gold.

Notably, The Bloodline's Tonga Loa and Tama Tonga are also in the bout. They are joined by The Street Profits, Pretty Deadly, The O.C., Legado del Fantasma, and the tandem of Baron Corbin and Apollo Crews.

Hikuleo could potentially make his debut by helping his real-life brothers Tama and Tonga win the Gauntlet Match. In doing so, it would set the pair up for a title opportunity, which could mean big things for The Bloodline.


#3. Hikuleo could be Roman Reigns' surprise associate

The expectation of most fans is that Hikuleo will debut in WWE as part of the new Bloodline led by Solo Sikoa. The idea makes a lot of sense since his brothers Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa are in the group. That doesn't necessarily have to be the case, however.

Solo Sikoa shockingly betrayed his brother Jimmy Uso to take over the new Bloodline in Roman Reigns' absence. In what could be a great sense of revenge, Roman could form his own version of the stable with Jimmy and the debuting Hikuleo.

It would be a devastating blow, but also quite appropriate if Roman stole the new Bloodline's family away from them. This would truly be a civil war of sorts, as brothers and cousins would be battling from all angles. It would make for extremely entertaining WWE television.


#2. The big man can cost Cody Rhodes the Undisputed WWE Title

WWE SummerSlam is set to take place in just a few weeks. The Biggest Party of the Summer will take place live from the Cleveland Browns Stadium in Cleveland, Ohio. Tens of thousands of fans are expected to be in attendance.

The main event of the PLE will see Cody Rhodes defend the Undisputed WWE Title against Solo Sikoa. This is a highly anticipated bout, but one that likely will feature plenty of interference.

One star who may interfere could be the debuting Hikuleo. While Cody may have plans to take on the likes of Jacob Fatu, he isn't likely expecting an appearance from the monster known as Hikuleo. The big man debuting and costing The American Nightmare the WWE Title could be a major way to mark his first-ever appearance for the company.


#1. He could be introduced after SummerSlam

While Hikuleo making a big splash at WWE SummerSlam or even on SmackDown next week would be fun, it may be rushing what is otherwise not yet needed. Instead, he could be saved for a big night just shortly after the epic event.

Just like WrestleMania, many see the RAW and SmackDown following SummerSlam as bigger-than-normal shows that need major surprises or important events. This could be the perfect avenue to debut Hikuleo.

Instead of adding him to The Bloodline beforehand, the big man could officially show up and set SmackDown ablaze heading into the fall. From there, fans and the locker room will quickly become acquainted with the powerful and intimidating monster.
