Solo Sikoa, the leader of the My Family Tree (MFT) faction on WWE SmackDown, is at the center of speculation regarding a significant roster shift that could see his real-life brother, Jimmy Uso, joining the group. Since dropping the United States Championship, Solo has yet to return to in-ring action, fueling fan uncertainty about his trajectory within WWE’s evolving storylines. The potential addition of Uso, currently active in the OG Bloodline narrative on Monday Night RAW, could dramatically alter the dynamics of both brands.
The MFT faction currently features Solo, Tonga Loa, Talla Tonga, and JC Mateo, all competing on SmackDown. Jimmy Uso remains a key player on RAW, engaged in a storyline supporting The YEET Master against The Vision. Recently, WWE’s top star Roman Reigns intervened to save Jimmy and his ally during a RAW segment, yet notably focused his attention on Jey Uso upon his own return. This apparent overlook suggests tension within the OG Bloodline and hints at Jimmy potentially separating from the faction.
Should Jimmy Uso leave the OG Bloodline, it would create an opportunity for Solo Sikoa to recruit him into the MFT, consolidating real-life brotherhood within the SmackDown faction. Solo has previously expressed interest in having Jimmy align with My Family Tree, indicating this possibility is consistent with existing character motivations and story arcs.
After departing SmackDown, the former WWE Tag Team Champion reunited with Jey Uso on RAW. Yet the escalating friction between Jimmy and other OG Bloodline members leaves the door open for his eventual return to the blue brand. A reintegration into SmackDown alongside Solo Sikoa could reinvigorate both the MFT’s presence and Solo’s momentum.
Integrating Jimmy into the MFT would provide a fresh narrative angle and add excitement to Solo Sikoa’s faction. While this development remains speculative, WWE’s Bloodline saga has frequently delivered unpredictable twists, making this potential shift plausible in future episodes.
Criticism Surrounding Recent MFT Promos on SmackDown
WWE has recently resumed airing vignette promos spotlighting the MFT faction on SmackDown, but these segments have drawn mixed reactions. During the latest episode of Sportskeeda’s BroDown podcast, hosted by Mac Davis, wrestling veteran and commentator Vince Russo voiced strong criticism of the recurring MFT promo format.
“Here’s what they’re gonna do with that. This is buying them time now. This is gonna buy them five or six weeks. Every week, he’s gonna highlight a different guy in the group. He did it last week, and he did it this week. Fine. But you and I know damn well what’s gonna happen. We’re gonna go through every guy in the group. Now we’re gonna bring them back, and they’re gonna lose on week one. We’ve seen it a million times. If you’re doing this and these guys come back with a new attitude and they’re gonna dominate, that’s fine. But they ain’t gonna do that. So they’re wasting five weeks of our time, highlighting each person because as soon as they come back, they’re gonna get beat,”
Russo’s remarks suggest skepticism about WWE’s creative direction for the MFT, implying the faction’s future may involve predictable losses rather than a dominant resurgence. This critique reflects broader fan concerns about the faction’s storytelling and Solo Sikoa’s current booking following his championship loss.
Shifting Alliances Could Reframe WWE’s Family Storylines
The ongoing tensions within WWE’s Bloodline narrative, particularly between Jimmy Uso and Roman Reigns, have created a narrative crossroads that might soon affect brand loyalty and faction membership. If Jimmy exits the OG Bloodline umbrella, his real-life brother Solo Sikoa’s faction could gain a valuable ally, reshaping the hierarchy of WWE’s family-based factions.
Such a move would not only alter SmackDown’s factional landscape but also attract renewed attention to Solo’s leadership within MFT, fueling fresh storylines and rivalries. Whether WWE capitalizes on these possible developments depends on forthcoming creative decisions, especially as the Bloodline saga continues to evolve across both main roster shows.
As fans await confirmation or denial of Jimmy Uso’s potential switch to SmackDown’s MFT, the implications for WWE’s factional rivalries and brotherhood storytelling remain significant, promising compelling drama in the weeks ahead.
