Veteran journalist Bill Apter suggests that Roman Reigns’ return to WWE SmackDown could be imminent, and not just Reigns who is making a comeback. Apter believes that The Usos, a popular tag team, could reunite to support Reigns, creating a powerhouse team. However, even with The Usos on his side, Reigns would still be outnumbered, making it necessary for him to find additional allies to take on Solo Sikoa and the new Bloodline. In an interview with UnSKripted, Apter proposed that Rikishi, a former WWE superstar, could be the perfect fourth member of Reigns’ team.
Apter believes that Rikishi’s return would be a significant addition, citing the popular move “stink face” as a key factor. He thinks that Rikishi would join Reigns on his side, providing the necessary muscle to take on the Bloodline. While Apter’s pitch seems unlikely, considering Rikishi’s last match was in 2019, it’s not impossible. The WWE has a history of bringing back legends, and it would make sense for Rikishi to join Reigns’ team. The move would also provide an interesting dynamic, as the two have a history together. Rikishi and Reigns have worked together before, and the WWE has a history of reuniting old tag teams and superstars.

It’s unclear if WWE will heed Apter’s advice and bring back Rikishi. Regardless, the situation on SmackDown is reaching a boiling point, and something needs to give. With the tension between the Bloodline and Reigns coming to a head, a dramatic turn could be just around the corner. The WWE has a history of pulling off surprise twists, and fans are eagerly anticipating what’s next. Will Rikishi make a comeback to join Reigns’ team, or will someone else step up to fill the void? The WWE’s unpredictability is part of what makes it so exciting, and fans are eagerly waiting to find out what’s next.
