Jacob Fatu
WWE Has Changed Plans for The Bloodline on SmackDown
Fightful reports Jamie Noble produced The Bloodline segments on SmackDown instead of Michael Hayes, while Solo Sikoa made his return.
A backstage change occurred during the January 17 WWE SmackDown at Pechanga Arena in San Diego, California, affecting The Bloodline segments. Fightful Select reports Jamie Noble produced The Bloodline-related content instead of Michael Hayes.
Solo Sikoa returned to WWE television following his loss to Roman Reigns in Tribal Combat on the January 6 WWE Raw Netflix premiere. While advertised to address the crowd, Sikoa departed the ring without speaking.
Jacob Fatu addressed the audience in Sikoa’s place, declaring that fans “haven’t seen anything” from him yet. LA Knight and Braun Strowman interrupted the segment.
According to Fightful Select, Michael Hayes, who typically produces all Bloodline segments, was not listed as a producer for any segments during the show. The change appears temporary, as Hayes was absent from the event.
WWE announced two matches following the segment. Jacob Fatu faces Braun Strowman at Saturday Night’s Main Event on January 25. Additionally, Tama Tonga competes against LA Knight on the January 24 SmackDown.
