Recent events on WWE RAW have intensified speculation around Jey Uso‘s character shift, with signs pointing to a heel turn for the Samoan star. The Stamford-based promotion hinted at this development when Jimmy Uso echoed Jey’s words, mimicking Roman Reigns in a backstage segment. Adding to this, Jey attacked LA Knight despite being a babyface, increasing the likelihood of his transition to a villainous role and the creation of a new WWE Bloodline faction.
Thamiko Fatu’s Chances to Debut as Part of Jey Uso’s Faction
Thamiko Fatu, the fourth son of WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi and Jey Uso‘s real-life brother, emerges as a strong contender to join the new Bloodline. Currently active in independent wrestling promotions, Thamiko’s debut in WWE could align with Jey’s heel turn and faction formation. With Triple H’s creative team overseeing storylines on the red brand, adding Thamiko to Jey’s group would deepen the Samoan family ties within the faction.
Zilla Fatu: A Possible Key Member and “OTC2” in Jey’s Group
Another member of the Fatu family, Zilla Fatu, has gained attention for his potential WWE debut and role within a faction led by Jey Uso. When Roman Reigns came back, he identified himself as “OTC1,” suggesting that someone could follow as “OTC2.” This has fueled speculation that Zilla might fill the position of Jey’s right-hand man, solidifying their connection and strengthening the new faction’s presence on WWE programming.
The Rock and Rikishi Could Add Star Power and Leadership
The Rock’s absence from WWE television since Elimination Chamber 2025 has left room for a possible return, and joining Jey Uso’s faction could provide a major boost to the storyline. His involvement would attract considerable fan interest given his legendary status as the People’s Champion. Meanwhile, Rikishi, the father of the Samoan twins, could also return to WWE in a managerial or advisory role, similar to Paul Heyman’s position as the “Wiseman” for The Bloodline. Such leadership would add depth and credibility to the faction as it develops within Monday Night RAW.
Impact and Future Developments of Jey Uso’s Faction
The possible creation of a new WWE Bloodline faction led by Jey Uso, backed by his family members and icons like The Rock and Rikishi, could significantly reshape storylines on the red brand. This alliance promises to highlight Samoan heritage in WWE’s top-tier narratives, creating fresh rivalries and engaging character dynamics. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely as the Stamford promotion reveals further developments in this evolving storyline.
