Roman Reigns to face another betrayal, dethrone The Bloodline with new partner? - 5 Bold predictions for The OTC for the rest of 2024
Roman Reigns' feud with The Bloodline appears to be far from over. The Original Tribal Chief has already pinned Solo Sikoa once at Bad Blood 2024 in a tag team match. However, during last week's SmackDown, the OTC and Jimmy Uso fell victim to the numbers game from Solo Sikoa’s faction.
In this article, we will make five bold predictions for Roman Reigns for the rest of 2024.
#5. Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso might be dethroning Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa
Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso are already united against the new Bloodline, and with the faction holding the WWE Tag Team titles, it’s likely that Reigns could soon move in that direction. A match between Solo Sikoa and the Original Tribal Chief is expected to be stretched into early next year, so WWE could book Roman and Jimmy in a Tag Team title match against the villainous faction.
Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa have already defeated all the tag teams capable of dethroning them. Next week, The Motor City Machine Guns are also expected to make their SmackDown comeback. So, if they fail to dethrone The Bloodline, then Reigns and Jimmy could be crowned as the new Tag Team Champions.
#4. A betrayal by Paul Heyman
Another bold prediction for the OTC could be an unexpected betrayal by Paul Heyman. The Wise Man is currently off television but is anticipated to return soon in the ongoing Bloodline saga. However, a surprising twist might await Roman Reigns, as the Special Counsel could betray him upon his return and side with Solo Sikoa.
The reasoning behind this prediction is that Heyman may align with Sikoa due to The Rock potentially being the mastermind behind Bloodline 2.0. It's possible that The Final Boss could pressure Heyman, using his influence in WWE, leading to the Wise Man betraying Roman Reigns in a shocking turn of events.
#3. A return to Monday Night RAW
Roman Reigns is currently part of Friday Night SmackDown, but fans might see him appear on Monday Night RAW soon to apologize to Jey Uso for his past behavior.
The YEET Master has already rejected the idea of reuniting with the OG Bloodline when Jimmy Uso visited RAW this week. One of the primary reasons for this was likely the mental trauma Roman inflicted on him with his actions in the past. If Roman apologizes, it could greatly increase the chances of a reunion of the Original Bloodline.
#2. The reunion of the OG Bloodline
One of the most ideal predictions for Roman Reigns before the end of 2024 is his reunion with the OG Bloodline. A potential Bloodline Civil War is expected to take place at Survivor Series WarGames, making a reunion of the OG Bloodline likely to happen before then. Despite Jey Uso’s rejection, his return to The Bloodline saga seems inevitable.
There is also a possibility that Sami Zayn could return as the Honorary Uce to assist the Original Tribal Chief in this battle, which would ultimately complete the Original Bloodline in WWE.
#1. Reigns vs. Rhodes vs. Owens could take place at Saturday night's main event
WWE and NBC have announced the return of Saturday Night's Main Event on December 14, 2024. As of now, Reigns, Cody Rhodes, Liv Morgan, Seth Rollins, and Bianca Belair are featured on the promotional poster. Additionally, reports suggest that a match between Kevin Owens and Cody Rhodes is expected to headline the show.
However, since the Original Tribal Chief is also advertised, there’s a high chance he could be added to this potential match, turning it into a Triple Threat for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
A match between Roman Reigns, Kevin Owens, and Cody Rhodes would be an excellent addition to Saturday Night's Main Event card.
