Roman Reigns has already returned to WWE, and he has done so alone, which could speak volumes for the way his former Wiseman might have felt. Heyman was left behind when Roman Reigns went on hiatus, and he was then threatened and assaulted by Solo Sikoa and his Bloodline.

This alone could be enough for Heyman to refuse to reunite with Reigns and instead take on a new client. The following list looks at four potential alliances for The Wiseman when he returns to WWE SmackDown.


#4. Hikuleo

Former WWE writer buries Judgment Day HERE

The younger brother of Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa has reportedly already signed with WWE and is now patiently waiting for his chance to make his debut. While it seems unlikely that he would join Solo Sikoa alongside his brothers, he could unite with Paul Heyman and form a third Bloodline, which would include Jimmy Uso and Zilla Fatu.

Could Hikuleo be the man that Heyman has chosen to exact revenge on Roman Reigns? He could now make his debut when The Wiseman decides it's time to confront his former client.


#3. Zilla Fatu

Zilla Fatu has been teasing a WWE debut for months, and it seems that the son of the late Umaga could be looking to make quite the impression when he makes it to the company.

Fatu has proved what he is capable of on the Independent Circuit and could decide it's time to make the move if he is under the learning tree of Paul Heyman. The Wiseman was able to build Roman Reigns up from the ground and could do the same thing for his cousin.


#2. Jimmy Uso

Jimmy Uso hasn't been seen since April when he was kicked out of the Bloodline by Solo Sikoa and the debuting Tama Tonga. Uso was left behind by Roman Reigns in the same way that Heyman was, and the two men could have come together in his absence and made a deal.

Uso could have decided he was tired of being seen as the weak link in his family, and now, with the backing of Paul Heyman, he could be looking to become the new Tribal Chief.


#1. Randy Orton

Randy Orton has been on the other side of many of Paul Heyman's clients over the years, but this could be the first time that the two men are on the same page. The 14-time World Champion would be annoyed that Cody Rhodes chose to team with Roman Reigns after their recent WrestleMania feud, while Paul Heyman would be mad at his former client for leaving when he needed him.

Orton is coming to the end of his career, and it would be a bucket list thing for him to tick off if he was able to work with Heyman, even if only for a short time.
