WWE will cause a tremendous upheaval during the SmackDown event scheduled to take place tonight after they introduce a new entity into The Bloodline.
The Stamford-based promotion will be drawing the curtains at the Van Andel arena in Grand Rapids Michigan, and the closest fans will be to watch as this long-awaited bombshell finally gets dropped. Its timing cannot be more dramatic as it directly follows after Money in the Bank and all the kerfuffle around Jacob Fatu beating up Solo Sikoa and turning heel.
At the top of the rumor mill is former New Japan Pro Wrestling star Hikuleo, who is about six feet eight and a beast in the ring. According to reports, he has been on WWE contract for almost one year, however, he is yet to hit the television screens.
Nevertheless, as reports indicate that he did wrestle dark match against Kit Wilson last week, everything is pointing towards his official debut in SmackDown. A former adopted brother of the two Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa, a debut Birthline would be brilliant in the storyline.
As the hype goes, the reveal has the potential to go in either direction. One of the directions has Hikuleo by side of Solo Sikoa as they rebuild following the betrayal of Fatu. Otherwise, he can make even more waves by secretly aligning with Jacob Fatu and escalating the drama that is brewing up in the family. In any case, his arrival will establish new plot lines, whether through shoring up of Sikoa or siding with Fatu against him.
SmackDown Set to Ignite New Bloodline Chapter
Strong emotions will be expected when SmackDown begins. Since Fatu was eliminated in an upset Money in the Bank result, Solo Sikoa has been trying to drum up his troops.
JC Mateo is already in the picture, so even though The Bloodline has impressive numbers, it is possible that the solidarity is not so great. They could come out on top by adding Hikuleo or they might be destroyed.
