The Rock is back, and with that, so too is the feeling that The Bloodline has just got even stronger heading into this week's WWE SmackDown. The Final Boss stared down Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and Jimmy Uso at the end of Bad Blood, with fans questioning his motives.

Solo Sikoa was in the crowd with his fellow stablemates when Rock returned. He was intriguingly caught on camera saying that this was 'part of the plan.' This could be taken one of many ways, but perhaps the self-appointed Tribal Chief will still be in command and acknowledged by The Brahma Bull.

The Rock has yet to be the leader of The Bloodline and acknowledged Roman Reigns as his Tribal Chief previously, ahead of WrestleMania XL. Sikoa has taken over as The Head of the Table because he's in possession of the Ula Fala.

Many fans think The People's Champion has been secretly calling the shots amid Sikoa's Bloodline wreaking havoc on WWE SmackDown. But perhaps that's not the case. The former NXT North American Champion could still be in control and have The Rock on board under his rule.

The 10-time world champion could appear on the blue brand and initially leave fans guessing whether he's in charge. He could then shock the WWE Universe by acknowledging Sikoa as his Tribal Chief to only further cement the 31-year-old as the faction's leader.

Rock has yet to explain his return and whether he's coming after Reigns, Rhodes, or both of them. It seems likely that a Bloodline Survivor Series: WarGames match will occur, and maybe it'll be Team Reigns vs. Team Sikoa.


The Rock needs to appear on WWE SmackDown and explain his Bad Blood return

The Rock's Bad Blood return has the WWE Universe discussing what's next for The Great One. He's been away from the promotion since the RAW after WrestleMania when he warned Cody Rhodes that he wanted his Undisputed WWE Championship.

Hollywood obligations have meant Rock has spent the last six months off WWE TV, and The Bloodline storyline has taken many twists and turns in the interim. Roman Reigns was still The Tribal Chief when he took a leave of absence, but now, it's Solo Sikoa.

Rock needs to appear on WWE SmackDown this week and discuss the situation to allow fans to understand where the story is headed. There is some suggestion he won't be on the show after Triple H hinted his Bad Blood return might be a one-off for now.
