The upcoming episode of WWE SmackDown is expected to bring significant storyline progression to The Bloodline Saga. This comes after the actions of Bloodline 2.0 on the recent episode of RAW, where they cost Jey Uso the Intercontinental Championship against Bron Breakker.
In this article, we will make five predictions for The Bloodline Saga on SmackDown this week.
#5. Roman Reigns could apologize to Jey Uso
Former WWE writer buries Judgment Day HERE
One major prediction for The Bloodline Saga on this week's SmackDown is that Roman Reigns might apologize to Jey Uso for his past actions. With the YEET Master suffering a loss due to Solo Sikoa's Bloodline, he might appear on the Friday Night show again, similar to last week.
If this happens, Roman could confront Jey once more. However, this time, he might apologize for his past behavior and attempt to reconcile with Jey for an OG Bloodline reunion to stand against Solo's faction.
#4. The Usos could reunite to challenge Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa at Crown Jewel 2024
Crown Jewel 2024 is the next premium live event of WWE, and fans could witness a reunion of The Usos, with them challenging Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa for the WWE Tag Team Championship. Currently, Motor City Machine Guns and DIY are set to clash for the Number One Contender spot for the title.
However, WWE might book Bloodline vs. the winner of this Number One Contender's match for SmackDown before Crown Jewel. This could open the door for a match between The Usos and Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa at the Saudi Arabia show.
Jey Uso might return to the blue brand again this week and eventually reunite with the OG Bloodline, seeking vengeance for the loss of his Intercontinental title. The best way for him to get his revenge would be to take the titles from them, as they cost him the IC title.
#3. Jey might choose Solo over Roman Reigns in a surprise manner on SmackDown
Solo Sikoa appeared on RAW, claiming he was there to help Jey Uso retain his Intercontinental Championship against Bron Breakker. However, The YEET Master interpreted this differently and attacked the faction.
With Jey potentially making an appearance on SmackDown this week, he might surprise everyone by choosing Solo Sikoa over Roman Reigns.
In a twist, Jey could acknowledge Solo, stating that he doesn’t want to get involved in the ongoing family drama and would rather distance himself from it. By siding with Solo, Jey might aim to prevent any future interference from the faction on RAW, allowing him to focus on his goals without distractions.
#2. Roman Reigns might challenge Solo Sikoa at Crown Jewel 2024
Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa's rivalry has been going on for months, yet they haven't faced each other in a singles match. However, with Reigns being brutalized over the past two weeks, he might finally challenge Solo Sikoa to a one-on-one match at Crown Jewel 2024.
The Original Tribal Chief could claim that Solo's dominance is due to the numbers game, but in a straight singles match, Solo wouldn’t stand a chance.
#1. Paul Heyman might return to SmackDown but faces a major dilemma
Paul Heyman has been absent from WWE for the past few months, but this week on SmackDown, The Wise Man could return to mediate between Jey Uso and Roman Reigns.
As the Special Counsel, he is the one Roman will surely listen to in this critical situation. Heyman might try to help both understand the importance of reuniting in the company. The Wise Man could then attempt to resolve their conflicts, potentially leading to the reunion of the original Bloodline.
However, Paul might face a dilemma if both do not agree on the same terms, which could put Heyman in a position to choose between Reigns and Jey. This situation could indeed be difficult for the Hall of Famer, but it could also bring an interesting twist to the entire original Bloodline reunion story.
