Recent reports reveal an unfortunate delay in Lance Anoa’i’s anticipated WWE debut. The 32-year-old member of the Anoa’i family, who recently signed with the company, is currently sidelined due to injury.
According to Fightful Select, Anoa’i’s in-ring debut will likely be postponed until the end of the year. The former MLW competitor had generated considerable interest after images surfaced of him training at the WWE Performance Center, confirming his addition to the roster.
The timing of this setback is particularly notable given the ongoing evolution of The Bloodline storyline. Anoa’i’s arrival was expected to add another layer to the family-driven narrative that has dominated WWE programming.
His eventual integration into the company could prove valuable, as he possesses the skills and lineage to contribute meaningfully to The Bloodline’s ongoing saga.
