Roman Reigns is back and the WWE world is rejoicing . Friday night's episode of SmackDown waited almost the entire two hours before unveiling the return of the Original Tribal Chief, and while some of us still think that title gives too much credibility to Solo Sikoa's current place at the head of the table, it is what it is. Reigns took care of a couple of Bloodline interferers during SummerSlam to save Cody Rhodes, the man who defeated him at Wrestlemania to end his four-year title run. Then on Friday he single-handedly demolished Sikoa, Tonga Loa and Tama Tonga in his official return to the Blue Brand.

But it won't be that for long. Reigns is going to need some help eventually and fortunately there's a ton of it out there, both already in the WWE and waiting in the wings. With the Bloodline being based on real-life blood ties, there's more than enough arms in the bullpen, to borrow a baseball analogy. Here's a look through what's in the clip.

Family Ties

The Bloodline isn't just a catchy faction name; the majority of members are family in real life. Jey and Jimmy Uso are twin brothers whose younger brother is Solo Sikoa. They are the three sons to former WWE wrestler Rikishi (Solofa Fatu, Jr.). Rikishi's brother Sam, The Tonga Kid, is father to The Bloodline's newest addition, Jacob Fatu (Fatu being all of their real-life last name).

Reigns is the son of the late Sika Anoa'i (The Wild Samoans), who is first cousin with Rikishi, making Reigns and the Fatus (Uso brothers, Sikoa and Jacob Fatu) second cousins.

The other current members of The Bloodline, Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa, are real-life brothers but are not blood-related to Reigns and the Fatus. Instead they are part of the Samoan brotherhood.

Currently in WWE

There's a ton of immediate help for Reigns within the WWE.

The Rock

It's expected by most for The Rock to eventually land on the opposite side of Reigns, but the two were most recently tag-team partners on the first night of Wrestlemania 40. While not technically a blood relative, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's grandfather Peter Maivia is a legendary Samoan wrestler who was considered a "blood brother" to Amituana'i Anoa'i, Reigns' grandfather . Initially, The Rock would appear aligned with Reigns, even if it's just to setup a turn.

Jimmy Uso

Uso has reportedly been cleared medically to return to the ring, though he has yet to appear on a broadcast. He's been out for the same amount of time as Reigns, following Wrestlemania 40 weekend when he feuded with his brother Jey and the two tumbled off the side of the ramp into tables during the Reigns-Rhodes match. When he and Jey Uso split, Jimmy Uso had returned on the side of the Bloodline so he's a natural ally for Reigns now.

Jey Uso

Now this will be the interesting one as Jey would seemingly have no reason to side with Solo Sikoa and company, but things were on horrible terms when it came to Reigns and Jey's brother. Uso has soared in popularity while being a lone wolf, so it's a toss up whether or not he'd stay faction independent.

Nia Jax

Jax has been loosely rumored here and there to join the faction over the years, and that's because of her real-life affiliation. Real name Savelina Fanene, Jax is on the Anoa'i family tree, just a different branch. She's a blood cousin to Reigns, the Usos and Sikoa. Rikishi (Usos' father), has been mentioned as a direct cousin to Jax' father, and Sika has been mentioned as a great uncle of Jax. As the current WWE Undisputed Women's Champion, she'd be a formidable addition, albeit the only female in the group.

Possibilities outside the WWE

Helping out here is a great Twitter thread, composed by user Slappa_WWE .

Lance Anoa'i

Lance Anoa'i's father (Samu) is brothers with Reigns' father, Sika. Anoa'i is currently a free agent, not tied to any promotion since October 2023. He was a part of the Samoan Swat Team alongside Jacob Fatu.

Journey Fatu

Journey Fatu is the younger, younger brother of the Uso twins and Solo Sikoa. At just 26 years old and wrestling on independent circuits he's a long ways from being WWE ready, but he's certainly on the list to continue the pipeline of the Anoa'i Bloodline.

Thamiko Fatu

OK Rikishi. Thamiko is the younger, younger brother in the Fatu family at just 20 years old and thus a first cousin once removed to Reigns. He also wrestles on the independent circuit currently, working on his skillset.

Zilla Fatu

Real name Joseph Fatu, Zilla is the son of Umaga, who is Rikishi and the Tonga Kid's brother. This makes Zilla a cousin to Jax, the Usos, Sikoa, Jacob, Journey and Thamiko. He's 21 years old and began training in Booker T's Reality of Wrestling school in 2022.

Juicy Finau

Finau isn't a blood relative, but he's worked alongside Jacob Fatu and Lance Anoa'i as part of the Samoan Swat Team.

Hikuleo

Hikuleo, 33, is a real-life brother to current Bloodline members Tonga Leo and Tama Tongam who are currently aligned with Solo Sikoa.
