Roman Reigns will fight his cousin, Solo Sikoa, in Tribal Combat on RAW's debut on Netflix. WWE analyst Sam Roberts suggested a top RAW star could interfere to cost the OTC the match.

In his quest to retrieve the Ula Fala from his former enforcer, Reigns reunited the OG Bloodline. The group defeated the new Bloodline in a WarGames match at Survivor Series. However, the OG Bloodline's reunion did not sit well with some of the faction's former victims, including Drew McIntyre. The Scottish Warrior attacked The Usos and Sami Zayn on RAW and SmackDown. He also defeated Zayn at Saturday Night's Main Event before revealing his intention to target the rest of the group, including the OTC.

Speaking on his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts suggested McIntyre could go after Reigns after previously attacking the OTC's cousins and Honorary Uce.

"There's a million reasons that Roman Reigns could lose. You know, whether it's interference from members of Solo's Bloodline. Whether Drew McIntyre decides, that's the moment to strike. Drew McIntyre going after Jey Uso, going after Sami Zayn, going after Jimmy Uso, I think going after Solo eventually, but he hasn't gone after Roman yet," he said.

Top WWE star blasted, compared to Winnie the Pooh RIGHT HERE

The 41-year-old pointed out that it would not make sense for McIntyre not to get involved in the Tribal Combat when Reigns shows up on RAW. He claimed The Scottish Warrior could take out the OTC with a Claymore before Sikoa finished him off with a Samoan Spike to win the fight.

"If Roman has shown up to Monday Night RAW and that's Drew McIntyre's show, really wouldn't make sense that Drew wouldn't get involved. What if Roman gets hit by a Claymore and then Solo Spikes him and he's able to take out Roman that way? Does that mean Roman is, as Paul Heyman said, a wanna be Tribal Chief? It gets very interesting." [From 16:30 - 17:16]

Will a WWE legend return to confront Roman Reigns on RAW?

On a previous episode of his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Sam Roberts predicted that The Rock would return on the premiere episode of Monday Night RAW on Netflix.

The WWE analyst suggested a scenario in which The Final Boss would confront Roman Reigns after the latter potentially beats Solo Sikoa to retrieve the Ula Fala.

"Here's where I would do it. Roman Reigns beats Solo Sikoa and has the Ula Fala back as The Tribal Chief, but then The Rock shows up. And The Rock stares him down, gets in the ring, not in the aisle, gets in the ring, stares him down, and maybe, that's how we go off the show," he said.

The Rock last appeared at WWE Bad Blood. He made a cryptic, seemingly threatening gesture to Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and Jimmy Uso. It would be interesting to see if the WWE legend will indeed show up on January 6.
