Roman Reigns is all set to team up with former rival Cody Rhodes to take on Jacob Fatu and Solo Sikoa of The Bloodline at WWE Bad Blood 2024. There is a chance that the fans may witness something they don't anticipate at the premium live event.
On this week's episode of SmackDown, Roman Reigns saved Cody Rhodes from The Bloodline after the latter defeated Solo Sikoa to retain the Undisputed WWE Championship. The end of the night saw the confirmation of a blockbuster tag team match between the two sides for WWE Bad Blood 2024.
While the chances are very low, The Tribal Chief could betray The American Nightmare at the upcoming premium live event to join forces with Solo Sikoa. Here are a few reasons why it could happen.

Roman Reigns' slow manipulation
Throughout The Bloodline saga, The Head of the Table has been shown to be a master manipulator. He systematically manipulated his family to obey his orders and become wicked heels. The same thing could happen again.
At SummerSlam 2023, Roman Reigns managed to bring Jimmy Uso to his side, the same person who originally betrayed him at Night of Champions 2023. He could do something similar to Solo Sikoa, bringing emotions into the mix to make his Enforcer acknowledge him as The Tribal Chief once again.
This could lead to the betrayal of Cody Rhodes on a grand stage at WWE Bad Blood 2024, and the emergence of a stronger-than-ever Bloodline.
The steel cage loss ahead of WWE Bad Blood 2024
Solo Sikoa tried his best to become The Tribal Chief of the family. However, he couldn't develop the most important quality of taking over the mantle, being undefeatable.
Roman Reigns stayed at The Head of the Table for four years because he didn't lose a singles match during his 1,316-day title reign. Solo couldn't replicate it as he has lost to Cody Rhodes twice already. The loss inside the steel cage at WWE SmackDown solidified that Solo wouldn't get another shot at the title.
The most important goal of The Bloodline is to rule WWE. To ensure that, Solo may finally have to accept that Reigns is the right choice to become the world champion. To ensure the title stays with the family, the two could join forces at WWE Bad Blood 2024.
Bloodline's common enemy
When Roman Reigns returned to the company at WWE SummerSlam 2024, he helped Cody Rhodes but before leaving, he looked at his former rival and said "It's only a matter of time." It seemingly meant he would come back for the Undisputed WWE Championship he had held for years before his loss at WrestleMania XL.
Solo Sikoa has become a fierce rival to Cody Rhodes too. This means regardless of who the Tribal Chief is, the most prominent enemy is still The American Nightmare. There could exist a scenario where Roman and Solo partner up to take down the biggest enemy of their family. This could be a temporary reunion of the family before The Rock returns to feud with The OTC.
