Roman Reigns has seemingly reunited the OG Bloodline. However, the Original Tribal Chief isn't on good terms with several WWE Superstars, including NXT's Eddy Thorpe.

In 2023, Thorpe signed with the Stamford-based company after departing New Japan Pro-Wrestling. Since arriving, he has feuded with notable superstars, including Damon Kemp and Dijak. He has defeated both athletes in underground matches.

Leading up to WrestleMania 39, The Bloodline featured in a Goodfellas-inspired trailer. Thorpe was also part of the video and had a glass bottle smashed on his head by Reigns. Taking to X (fka Twitter), the 34-year-old reacted to a throwback GIF from the trailer, where he claimed Reigns wasn't his Tribal Chief and also clarified his stance regarding the OG Bloodline saying their tribe wasn't his.

"Not my tribe and sure af not my chief," wrote Thorpe.

A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.

Check out his tweet below:

At WrestleMania 39, Reigns successfully defended the Undisputed WWE Championship against Cody Rhodes. During the match's closing moments, Solo Sikoa and Paul Heyman got heavily involved, leading to The American Nightmare's loss. A year later at The Show of Shows Rhodes finally finished his story, defeating The Tribal Chief in a Bloodline Rules Match.

In the aftermath of Reigns' historic loss, Sikoa formed his Bloodline with Reigns eventually coming back and reuniting the OG Bloodline.


Dijak believes Eddy Thorpe is destined to be a champion in WWE

Former WWE Superstar Dijak has claimed that Eddy Thorpe is destined to be a champion. Dijak and the 34-year-old have shared the ring in the developmental brand with the latter walking out victorious in an underground match.

On X, the 37-year-old star praised Thorpe. He even claimed the former NJPW talent belongs in the main event picture. Dijak wrote:

"This man @EddyThorpe_WWE is destined to be a champion. He belongs in main events, plain and simple. Looking forward to his return."

On September 30, Thorpe competed in his most recent match, defeating NXT Superstar Brooks Jensen on Main Event.
