Bloodline family members Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa are set to compete against The O.C. in a dark match on SmackDown.

Needless to say, The Bloodline has been going through a tumultuous time ever since Sami Zayn turned his back on the group at the 2023 Royal Rumble Premium Live Event.

This resulted in Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa viciously attacking Zayn while Jey seemingly walked out on the group as well. Since then. Jey's interactions with the group have been limited.

Although he showed up last week to defend the SmackDown Tag Team Titles with Jimmy Uso, he didn't hang out with The Bloodline and was later shown fist-bumping Sami Zayn backstage.

In the wake of the incident, Jimmy Uso will get a new tag team partner in Solo Sikoa as they prepare to face The O.C. in a dark match on SmackDown, according to Fightful Select.

"OC are at Smackdown to work a dark match with Jimmy Uso & Solo Sikoa," per Fightful Select.

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
