Roman Reigns finally made his much anticipated WWE return at the 2024 SummerSlam Premium Live Event in Cleveland. Recently, wrestling veteran Bully Ray shared his thoughts on a potential scenario if The Big Dog were to be involved in a feud with The Bloodline 2.0 moving ahead.

The Biggest Party of The Summer witnessed the 39-year-old star coming back as the Original Tribal Chief and attacking Solo Sikoa during the latter's Undisputed WWE Championship match against Cody Rhodes.

The Big Dog unleashed a devastating Superman Punch and a Spear on his cousin, allowing The American Nightmare to retain his title. Rhodes and Roman Reigns engaged in a tense staredown before the PLE went off the air, fueling speculation about a potential third match between the two men.

On the Busted Open podcast, Bully Ray speculated that a potential feud between the Original Tribal Chief and Solo Sikoa's version of The Bloodline could be a captivating storyline that might "overshadow" The American Nightmare's next rival.

"If Roman [Reigns] goes over to The Bloodline, and he's taking care of the family business, that is going to be such an important story that I think it will overshadow, outshine, maybe whoever Cody's [Rhodes] next opponent is," Ray said. [From 8:14 to 8:33]

Roman Reigns to make his first WWE SmackDown appearance since WrestleMania XL

At this year's Showcase of The Immortals, Cody Rhodes dethroned the Original Tribal Chief, ending the latter's 1,316-day reign as the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.

Following WrestleMania 40, the former Shield member did not appear on television until this past Saturday's SummerSlam, where he confronted Solo Sikoa, who took over The Bloodline in his absence.

WWE has now announced that the former Universal Champion is set to appear on the August 9, 2024, episode of Friday Night SmackDown. This will be Roman's first appearance on the blue brand since The Show of Shows earlier this year.

It will be interesting to see if, and how, Roman confronts The Bloodline 2.0 this Friday.
