Wrestling veteran Jim Cornette urged WWE to keep Roman Reigns’ return a secret. He stated it would receive a better reaction than if the company announced his return date.
The Tribal Chief lost his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship to Cody Rhodes on night two of WrestleMania XL. He has since gone on hiatus. Meanwhile, Solo Sikoa took over The Bloodline, claiming it was on the orders of Reigns. Nevertheless, many believe the 38-year-old will return as a babyface and feud with his cousin and his new associates, Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa.
On The Experience podcast, Cornette addressed The Tribal Chief’s anticipated comeback. He claimed the Stamford-based company must not advertise his return and make it a surprise to get a huge reaction from the crowd:
“We can’t know that Roman Reigns is gonna come back. They shouldn’t advertise it. It should be a surprise and they’ve got to build a moment where some important f***ing crossroads comes up in The Bloodline f***ing path and right as they’re about to decide which side to take here comes f***ing Roman. The place will f***ing come unglued,” he said. [4:18 – 4:43]
Will Roman Reigns lead a team in a Bloodline civil war at WWE Survivor Series?
With Solo Sikoa forming his own Bloodline faction, many believe a civil war within the group is inevitable once Roman Reigns returns from his break. Some even think The Rock will also be involved.
On the Busted Open podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray predicted the two teams that could go head-to-head in a Bloodline WarGames match at Survivor Series:
“Survivor Series: Bloodline WarGames. Let me see if I can get this right. [The] Rock, Solo, Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa versus Roman, Jimmy, Jey, Sami. (…) That works for the WarGames, right? Based on how everybody’s character is right now, right?”
Last Friday, Solo Sikoa claimed he talks to Reigns all the time. It would be interesting to see if he is lying or telling the truth when The Tribal Chief returns and stands face-to-face with The Enforcer.
