Last week’s SmackDown witnessed the emotional reunion of The OG Bloodline after years of turbulent history. The Roman Reigns-led faction joined sides once again to take down Solo Sikoa and his crooked Bloodline. One real-life member of the family who has been keeping a close eye on the action, Rikishi, has now broken his silence on the huge turn of events.
Taking it to Instagram, Rikishi posted a selfie with an interesting caption, seemingly revealing his side in this civil war. He used Jimmy Uso’s catchphrase to likely refer to Solo Sikoa and his faction as the fake Bloodline. It was quite an intriguing remark that suggests that even the WWE Hall of Famer believes that Reigns is The OTC.
