Rikishi has two opponents in mind for The Bloodline‘s next big feud in WWE.
The group has gone through plenty of twists and turns over the past year, and these days, Solo Sikoa has declared himself the leader of the group containing Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga, and Tonga Loa.
Speaking on a recent edition of his Off the Top podcast, Sikoa’s father and WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi explained that he believes his son’s group can benefit from a feud with fellow generational stars Randy Orton and Rey Mysterio.
“Randy Orton and Rey Mysterio are some of the OGs that always pop up in my mind when it comes to working with my boys because there’s so much they can take away and learn from that.” (h/t Sportskeeda)
Rikishi Reacted To Jey Uso’s Intercontinental Championship Loss
On the October 21st episode of Monday Night Raw, Jey Uso faced off against Bron Breakker for the Intercontinental Championship he’d won from Breakker on September 23rd. Despite The Bloodline declaring earlier in the night that they wanted to help Uso retain, Jacob Fatu attacked Uso and allowed Breakker to capture the Intercontinental Championship for a second time.
Rikishi, who was very vocal about wanting his son to win the Intercontinental Championship, spoke about the shock title loss on his Off the Top podcast. According to the WWE Hall of Famer, the time wasn’t right for Uso to lose the title just yet.
“I think it was too soon. If I’m the promoter, I’m only gonna go speak business wise, you know, finally Jey had gotten his flowers with the belt that he so rightfully earned and deserved it. Now we got it on this kid here. He’s well over.” (h/t WrestlingNews.co)
In a new update, Rikishi has called for a major Hell in a Cell match to take place.
