Rikishi Doesn’t Rule Out Replacing Paul Heyman in The Bloodline

The Backlash Premium Live Event featured Tonga Loa’s debut, which is the latest addition to The Bloodline. While Paul Heyman is trying to keep things under control, it appears Rikishi doesn’t rule out replacing Heyman in The Bloodline.

Tensions are simmering within The Bloodline on WWE SmackDown, with Paul Heyman and Solo Sikoa appearing to be at odds, hinting at potential future conflicts. In fact, some believe Sikoa might just kick Heyman out of The Bloodline.

While speaking on his podcast Rikishi Fatu Off The Top, Rikishi was asked about the prospect of replacing Heyman within The Bloodline. Rikishi stated that he could foresee such a move and made it clear he doesn’t rule out that happening in the future.

“Damn it, every time I keep trying to leave [myself] out, you guys keep trying to pull me back in. And of course, I’m not saying ‘No, I won’t.’ What I’m saying is, hey, I’ll see it coming a mile away and I’ll know when it’s time for me to throw my name in the hat,” said Rikishi. “At the end of the day, we’re gonna make sure that this is gonna be an even playing field for The Bloodline on both sides.”

We will have to wait and see whether Rikishi will end up replacing Paul Heyman as the Wiseman of The Bloodline, which might eventually lead to a Bloodline civil war somewhere down the line.
