Bloodline undergoes unexpected change ahead of huge match on WWE SmackDown

The Bloodline are set to have a major match on WWE SmackDown tonight. However, the group underwent an unexpected change before their match.

The Bloodline has been going through a massive transition ever since Roman Reigns lost at WrestleMania 40. Solo Sikoa has taken over the group as the new Tribal Chief. He first kicked out Jimmy Uso from the group while adding Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa. If that wasn't enough, Sikoa brought in Jacob Fatu to join them.

Since then, The Bloodline have looked unstoppable as they have dominated WWE SmackDown. The group spared no one, including The Wiseman Paul Heyman, as they took him out a few weeks ago. They are currently embroiled in a feud with Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes, and Kevin Owens.

Last week on the blue brand, The Bloodline continued their dominance as they attacked Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens and laid them out to end the night. During the course of this brawl, Tonga Loa seemingly hurt his eye. Tonight on WWE SmackDown, he was seen with an eye patch as the group confronted General Manager Nick Aldis, who informed them that they must forfeit their gauntlet match tonight since Tonga Loa was in no condition to compete.

However, Solo Sikoa informed him that Jacob Fatu could replace Tonga Loa. Aldis agreed and the change was made official.

Tama Tonga and Jacob Fatu will now represent The Bloodline in the tag team gauntlet match tonight on WWE SmackDown.
