Roman Reigns made a monumental return at SummerSlam this year, the rumblings of which have been felt around the world. Following a historic comeback, The Original Tribal Chief will make his presence felt on the upcoming episode of SmackDown. However, he may not come alone, as Reigns could bring back a legendary Hall of Famer along with him.

The name in question is none other than Paul Heyman. The veteran has been away from television since suffering a vicious attack at the hands of The Bloodline last month. Now that Roman Reigns has returned, there's a good possibility that the 58-year-old veteran could reunite with him on the blue brand, as this was the very moment Paul had been waiting for all this time.

A major reason why Reigns could bring Heyman back is that the latter has a major role in the ongoing Bloodline saga. The former Wiseman is expected to be the catalyst in reuniting The Original Tribal Chief with his estranged brothers, Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso, in the potential Civil War against Solo Sikoa's version of the heel faction. He would possibly play a pivotal role in the reunion of The O.G. Bloodline.

The storyline has come full circle, with history repeating itself. Back in 2020, Roman Reigns made a shocking return at SummerSlam as a heel and joined Paul Heyman on the subsequent episode of SmackDown. Four years later, he made a triumphant return at the same spectacle but as a babyface, and is on the verge of joining Heyman on the upcoming SmackDown.
