The latest move from WWE United States Champion Solo Sikoa appears to be heading towards the potential exit of a SmackDown star.
During this week’s episode, Sikoa, Tonga Loa, and JC Mateo were all attacked by former champion Jacob Fatu at the parking lot. A tag-team match ensued between Fatu and Jimmy Uso versus Sikoa and Mateo, with the former winning. However, after the match, Loa and Tala Tonga (fka Hikuleo) attacked Fatu and Uso. The WWE United States Champion then led a vicious triple powerbomb to Fatu to end the show.
In a segment, Sikoa officially introduced Tala Tonga as the newest addition to his group. The US Champ then named his new group “MFT” or My Family Tree.
“Welcome the newest member of the family: Tala Tonga. This group is nothing like the Bloodline. This group is way more dangerous. These are my MFTs my family tree. The family is complete,” Sikoa declared.

This led to fans speculating that Tama Tonga might be out of The Street Champ’s new faction. The Right Hand man has been with the United States Champion from his WWE debut as a member of the latter’s version of “The Bloodline.”
“Solo announced family complete so is Tama Tonga out or he final piece??” a fan on X tweeted.

MFT is also Tama’s nickname (shortened for Mother F’N Tonga) that was given to him following his association with Sikoa in his WWE debut, along with being The Right Hand Man (Jey Uso’s former nickname in Roman Reigns’ Bloodline).
