Many expect Roman Reigns to return at WWE SummerSlam after nearly four months of absence. While a former employee in the Stamford-based company believes the same, he thinks The Head of the Table's comeback would not happen at the show's end.
The 39-year-old has led The Bloodline for nearly four years. However, Solo Sikoa has taken over the faction after Reigns went on hiatus following WrestleMania XL. The former Enforcer appointed himself Tribal Chief and added Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu to the faction. Meanwhile, he eliminated Paul Heyman and Jimmy Uso. With Sikoa continuing to take shots at his former leader, former WWE employee Tommy Carlucci claimed the former Undisputed WWE Champion would return at SummerSlam to confront his cousin.
Speaking on The Last Word podcast, Carlucci predicted that The Head of the Table's comeback would happen during Sikoa's Undisputed WWE Championship match against Cody Rhodes:
"I think he's [Roman Reigns] showing up, Coach. I definitely think he's showing up. Yeah, I think he's coming full-blade. I think it's gonna be during the match, the Solo/Cody match, somehow that music's gonna f***ing hit and it's just gonna drive the place nuts. And he's gonna come down and whatever happens after that is gonna happen. But, I don't think it's gonna be at the end of the show because I think the show's gonna be pretty long. I think it's gonna be a long show," he said. [From 32:12 to 32:42]

Roman Reigns could have an interaction with a former WWE ally at SummerSlam
After leaving The Bloodline, Jey Uso moved to Monday Night RAW to become a solo competitor. However, many expect Main Event to reunite with Roman Reigns upon the latter's return to fight Solo Sikoa's version of The Bloodline.
On his The Wrestling Matt podcast, former WWE host Matt Camp suggested The Head of the Table could return at SummerSlam and have an interaction with Jey. The multi-time tag team champion is not on the premium live event's card:
"What if Jey and Roman had an interaction at SummerSlam? That means way more than Jey being in some random title match. If Jey and Roman cross paths at SummerSlam, you couldn't tell me anything you could do with Jey right now that would mean more than that because people know what the history is there. That goes a long way," he said.
Despite turning on Reigns and leaving The Bloodline, Jey Uso revealed in an interview with Gorilla Position that he still considers his cousin his Tribal Chief. It would be interesting to see if they will reunite this Saturday.
