WWE supposedly signed Hikuleo back in July 2024, as per reports. However, fans haven't heard anything about what's next for the former IWGP Tag Team Champion. Furthermore, it was reported that the company had trademarked the name "Talla Tonga," and it was supposedly going to be Hikuleo's name upon debut.
Given that The Bloodline Story is continuously developing, fans assumed Hikuleo would join the saga at some point. Speculation didn't favor Roman Reigns or Solo Sikoa; instead, the popular speculation was that whoever the 33-year-old aligned with would have a huge advantage. Interestingly, some reports stated that he will appear on WWE NXT rather than the main roster for his WWE debut.
In the current situation, Tama Tonga's younger brother has not yet been on NXT or the main roster. While the Stamford-based promotion might be waiting to bring him on the youngest brand, it's certainly possible plans have changed, and now the clock is ticking until the perfect moment for Hikuleo's involvement in The Bloodline Saga arrives.
Former WWE writer buries Judgment Day HERE
His addition to The Bloodline Saga will align perfectly with the current angle, where it's not just about family. Solo Sikoa brought Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa to The Bloodline, and Jey Uso questioned that.
To show The Street Champion that two can play the game, Roman Reigns and The YEET Master can bring Talla Tonga to their side. It will not just be brother vs. brother for the Anoa'i Family but also for the Tongans. With Survivor Series: WarGames coming up, the former IWGP Tag Team Champion can soon make his main roster debut!
Hikuleo joining Survivor Series: WarGames will need another superstar to join The Bloodline Saga
Solo Sikoa's Bloodline has four members: Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, Jacob Fatu, and Sikoa himself. On the other hand, The OG Bloodline has Roman Reigns and The Usos, but it seems that Sami Zayn will soon join them against The Street Champion.
If he joins either of the sides, the other side will be outnumbered. In such a situation, WWE must bring another superstar into The Bloodline Saga.
One name that always comes up in this storyline is The Rock! If "Talla Tonga" joins Roman Reigns, The Final Boss can align himself with the heels of The Bloodline!
