Ex-WWE Star Dubs New Bloodline Faction the ‘Temu Bloodline’ After Controversial Crown Jewel Match

Former WWE star Matt Morgan has sparked conversation around The Bloodline’s evolving lineup, referring to the Solo Sikoa-led faction as the “Temu Bloodline” during a recent episode of his Gigantic Pop podcast.

Morgan’s remarks came after a heated six-man tag team match at WWE Crown Jewel, where Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, and Tama Tonga faced off against Roman Reigns and The Usos in Saudi Arabia. In a shocking moment, Sikoa managed to pin Reigns, securing a big win for the new Bloodline faction.

Morgan was outspoken about his frustration with the outcome, criticizing how quickly WWE has shifted the storyline dynamics within The Bloodline since Roman’s limited return to the ring at SummerSlam. He expressed disappointment in the new direction of the faction, taking particular aim at the reimagined Bloodline led by Sikoa. “

This looked so quick. I feel all of it so fast. After we waited forever for Roman to come back. This is Roman’s second-ever match [since returning at SummerSlam]. He took a pinfall from Solo,” Morgan shared. “Like, it’s annoying because they’re the Temu Bloodline; everybody knows it. Except for Jacob Fatu, of course. He’s a headliner waiting to happen.”

Morgan’s “Temu Bloodline” label alludes to what he sees as a lower-tier version of the original faction, with Solo Sikoa now stepping into a leadership role. However, Morgan made it clear that he sees potential in Jacob Fatu, who he believes could be the faction’s breakout star. Known as “The Samoan Werewolf,” Fatu has garnered significant praise since joining WWE in June, impressing fans and critics alike with his intense style and undefeated record in the ring.

Fatu, who has yet to be pinned or submitted, has quickly become a fan favorite and a strong addition to the faction, despite Morgan’s reservations about the group as a whole. The evolving Bloodline storyline is creating mixed reactions, with some fans eager to see where Sikoa’s leadership takes the faction and others longing for the original version led by Roman Reigns.
