Survivor Series 2024 is set to take place on November 30, and fans are excited at the prospect of Roman Reigns' Bloodline facing Solo Sikoa's Bloodline in a WarGames match. Reigns returned to WWE at SummerSlam and has been trying to take down Sikoa and his team but continuously gets outnumbered.

With only Jimmy Uso by his side now, the OTC needs to rebuild his faction. Last week on SmackDown, Jey Uso hugged it out with his brother Jimmy Uso, seemingly returning to the faction. However, some major plot twists could await fans come Survivor Series. Let's take a look:


#3. Roman Reigns to be unable to compete in the WarGames match

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

The Tribal Chief teamed up with Cody Rhodes to defeat Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu at Bad Blood. Another win for him at Survivor Series would have to be the end of his feud with Solo Sikoa. If the company wants to drag the angle more and build more anticipation, then a good way to do that would be to have Reigns not compete at the WarGames match.

After assembling his squad, Reigns would be confident of a victory in the mult-man cage match. However, Sikoa could have a plan B in place and take out Reigns on the SmackDown before Survivor Series. This would tilt the balance in favor of Sikoa. The 'new' Bloodline could then go on to defeat Reigns' team in his absence. This would give the OTC even more reason to get revenge, which could come in the form of a one-on-one match against Sikoa at Royal Rumble or WrestleMania.


#2. Brock Lesnar to return and replace Roman Reigns

Another direction the company could go is for The Beast Incarnate to make his surprise return at Survivor Series and join the team of Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, Cody Rhodes, and Sami Zayn. Lesnar had shown his respect for Rhodes after their last match at SummerSlam 2023 and could return as a favor to The American Nightmare.

Solo Sikoa and his Bloodline also took out Lesnar's real-life friend and mentor, Paul Heyman. Going off the first scenario, if Reigns cannot compete, the multi-time WWE Champion could return to avenge his former manager, Paul Heyman. Despite being a long-time rival of Roman Reigns, Lesnar could bury the hatchet as a mark of respect for The Wiseman.


#1. The Rock to make his in-ring return by joining Solo Sikoa's team at Survivor Series

The Final Boss, The Rock, made his return to the company last year when he teamed up with Roman Reigns to face Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes on Night One of WrestleMania 40. He pinned The American Nightmare in the match and promised that his feud with Rhodes wasn't done.

The Rock returned at Bad Blood after Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes won their tag team match, and stared down both men. Seemingly unhappy with Reigns' decision to team up with their rival. The Brahma Bull could return in the lead-up to Survivor Series WarGrames and announce that his alliance lies with Solo Sikoa as Reigns turned out to be a traitor.
