Tama Tonga’s Debut Outshines AEW’s Top Signees’ First Appearances

A seismic shift was witnessed within The Bloodline on this week’s SmackDown in the absence of their leader, Roman Reigns. The dominant faction experienced significant changes, most notably Solo Sikoa’s decisive action to expel Jimmy Uso from The Bloodline and the addition of a new member.

The Bloodline made their first appearance on the blue brand since Roman Reigns’ loss to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40. However, their reunion took a surprising turn when another member of the Anoa’i family, Tama Tonga made his appearance and ambushed Jimmy Uso, leaving fans shocked.

In an unexpected move, Solo Sikoa aligned himself with Tama Tonga, joining forces against Jimmy Uso. This alliance seemed to be fueled by a desire for retribution following Jimmy’s loss to Jey Uso at WrestleMania.

Moreover, WWE embarking on a new journey to explore a fresh direction for The Bloodline with the debut of Tama Tonga has surpassed their rival promotion, AEW in regards to their top three megastar signed in recent memory. Tama Tonga’s first appearance in WWE gained close to 1.2 Million, surpassing the debut traction of top AEW signees, Kazuchika Okada, Will Ospreay, and Mercedes Mone.

Moreover, new reports indicate that WWE was pleased with Tonga’s positive reception, especially considering his limited exposure in the United States prior to this appearance. With his integration into The Bloodline being in the works for a long time, fans are eager to see how this storyline unfolds and what role Tonga will play in the faction’s future.
