Rikishi was recently honored at a festival in California and was brought on stage for one of the big events. The WWE Hall of Famer mimicked The Bloodline after he got the mic and demonstrated the popularity of the faction.
In a post on his Instagram stories, Rikishi shared a video taken at the annual Mayjah Vibes festival in Adelanto. The former Intercontinental Champion asked the audience to get their ones up to acknowledge The Bloodline.
"Put your ones up, man. Put your ones up," Rikishi said as the people followed suit.

Rikishi was at the annual Mayjah Vibes festival to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award for his contributions to the Polynesian Culture. He was born and raised in San Francisco, and was part of the famous Anoa'i wrestling family or the real-life Bloodline.
Here's what the Mayjah Vibes wrote on their official website to describe the WWE legend:
"A WWE Hall of Famer and key member of the legendary Samoan Dynasty, boasts a career marked by the WWE Intercontinental Championship and multiple tag team titles. As the father of WWE tag-team champions, The Usos, and NXT standout, Solo Sikoa, he contributes to the powerful wrestling legacy known as The Bloodline."
Rikishi comments on possibly replacing Paul Heyman in The Bloodline
With The Bloodline possibly splitting into two subgroups, some fans believe that there should be another Wise Man or at least someone who can replace Paul Heyman. Many fans suggested Rikishi, and the legend was not against the idea of being a Wise Man for one of the groups.
"Stop throwing that in there. I mean, I get it, you know, probably would make sense but da*n it. Every time I keep trying to leave out, you guys keep trying to pull me back. Of course like, I'm not saying, 'No, I won't.' What I'm saying is, 'Hey, I'll see it coming a mile away and I'll know when it's time for me to throw my name in the hat.' At the end of the day, we gonna make sure that this is going to be an even playing field for The Bloodline on both sides," the Hall of Famer said. [13:24 - 14:08]
The legendary wrestler has not appeared on WWE television since November 2020 when he appeared at WWE Survivor Series to attend The Undertaker's retirement ceremony.
