The WWE Universe is eagerly waiting for Roman Reigns' return. Former WWE manager Dutch Mantell also spoke about the much-anticipated comeback and how it would affect the dynamics with current Bloodline members, especially Solo Sikoa.
Roman has not been on TV since WrestleMania XL. After a historic reign as the Undisputed WWE Champion, Reigns finally lost the title to Cody Rhodes on Night Two of 'Mania. Since then, Sikoa has picked up control of The Bloodline and added new members such as Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu into the group.
On the latest episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling Smack Talk, Dutch Mantell said that Jacob Fatu would be a major factor in Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa's rivalry. He stated Fatu's allegiance would be questioned once Roman returns.
"I think [Jacob Fatu] will be the pawn between Roman [Reigns] and Solo [Sikoa]. He'll be the go-to guy and they will battle over him, over his allegiance and I think it will work. I do." [From 47:25 to 47:38]
