Roman Reigns is battling Solo Sikoa over the leadership of The Bloodline on WWE SmackDown. A WWE analyst recently claimed The Original Tribal Chief could form a "super faction" after defeating his former Enforcer.

Last Friday, Sikoa explained to Tama Tonga that they would have to acknowledge Reigns as The Tribal Chief if the latter regained the Ula Fala. Later that night, The Original Tribal Chief retrieved the sacred neckpiece momentarily before a returning Jacob Fatu destroyed him, allowing Sikoa to retake The Bloodline's leadership symbol. WWE analyst, Sam Roberts had his say on last Friday night's segment.

On his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts pointed out that everybody expects Reigns to eventually have the Ula Fala back around his neck, potentially with the help of the original Bloodline. He also claimed this could lead to an unexpected twist.

The 40-year-old stated that Reigns beating Sikoa and retrieving the Ula Fala could lead to The Original Tribal Chief reuniting the old and new Bloodline groups into one faction under his leadership.

"Assuming that Solo Sikoa is telling the truth, Solo will acknowledge Roman Reigns. And assuming they're still listening to him, so will Tonga Loa and Tama Tonga, and theoretically, so will Jacob Fatu if he's following the orders of The Tribal Chief. So, if that's the case and they acknowledge him, at some point when Roman beats Solo and Roman become the Tribal Chief once more, at some point, will Roman realistically bring this new Bloodline into the remaining pieces of the old Bloodline and create a super faction," said Roberts.

Roberts pointed out that The Usos, Sami Zayn, and Paul Heyman could return to Reigns' side. Meanwhile, he stated that The Original Tribal Chief would probably accept the acknowledgment from the members of Sikoa's version of The Bloodline based on his character.

"Maybe at some point Jey Uso finds his way back to helping Roman Reigns conquer this new Bloodline. Paul Heyman maybe comes back. Will Sami Zayn rear his head again? [...] But we have been presented a scenario where at some point you could see this entire Bloodline being capsulated. If everyone is acknowledging The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns, based on Roman Reigns' behavior, you would think that if he's proved his dominance and they are acknowledging him that he would accept that acknowledgment," he added.

WWE analyst addresses possible betrayal in Solo Sikoa's Bloodline

While Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa battle over the Ula Fala, some fans wondered if Tama Tonga had dropped a hint that he was interested in taking the leadership symbol for himself. Last week on WWE SmackDown, The Right Hand Man stared at the Ula Fala before slowly handing it to Sikoa.

On a previous episode on Notsam Wrestling, WWE analyst, Sam Roberts addressed that moment, revealing that he himself wondered if Tonga was trying to take the Ula Fala for himself. He also did not rule out the possibility of the Tongans turning on Sikoa eventually.

"I was wondering if Tama Tonga was trying to take it for himself. I saw the same thing. Tama Tonga was slow to give the Ula Fala to Solo Sikoa [...] It's always possible [on if the Tongans will split up with Sikoa]," he said.

With Sikoa still wearing the Ula Fala and claiming to be The Tribal Chief, it would be interesting to see if Roman Reigns will succeed in retrieving the sacred necklace, as WWE fans and experts expect.
