5 WWE Predictions Leading to SummerSlam 2024 | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors

The bad blood that's been brewing within The Bloodline since WrestleMania 40 is guaranteed to escalate even further as the summer progresses.

It seems there's a new development in the saga every week on SmackDown now that Solo Sikoa is calling the shots and Paul Heyman has been forced to fall in line.

Former IWGP heavyweight tag team champions Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa have been recruited into their ranks and should run roughshod over the roster on the blue brand in the remainder of the summer.

One of Sikoa's first acts as the interim Tribal Chief was exiling Jimmy Uso, who has not been seen since the post-WrestleMania SmackDown. It's safe to assume that when we see Jimmy next, it'll be alongside his brother Jey after they make amends.

The Usos reuniting will be a nice boost to the tag team division, but not as big as Jacob Fatu will be to the overall roster once he debuts. To avoid making The Bloodline overcrowded, he should join Jey and Jimmy to combat the Sikoa-led stable.

Roman Reigns may not be back until SummerSlam itself, so while it won't be revealed where his allegiance lies until closer to that event, how WWE intends to factor The Usos and Fatu into the storyline in the coming months will be fascinating to follow.
