Jey Uso May Be Ousted from Bloodline by Roman Reigns in 2026

2026-07-09 · Jey Uso · Opinion

**Jey Uso** could be stripped of his spot in The Bloodline as Roman Reigns reportedly weighs a major roster shake‑up following Uso’s recent defeats. The Samoan star’s loss in the King of the Ring final at Night of Champions and a failed No. 1 Contender’s match have put him on thin ice, according to insiders.

Roman Reigns has been tightening the family’s grip since capturing the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. The Usos and Jacob Fatu have officially joined his inner circle, but Uso’s recent track record is wobbling. He fell short in the King of the Ring final, losing to Oba Femi, and then dropped a No. 1 Contender’s bout to Cody Rhodes on SmackDown. Those setbacks give Reigns a storyline reason to demand gold before allowing Uso back into the fold.

Fans are hearing whispers that former Undisputed WWE Champion **Sami Zayn** might be ushered into The Bloodline. Jacob Fatu posted a cryptic video on X showing Zayn’s post‑match crash after losing the title to CM Punk, adding a blood emoji. The visual cue hints at a possible reunion, positioning Zayn as the next honorary Uce if Reigns decides to cut Uso loose.

WWE’s creative team appears ready to stretch The Bloodline saga beyond WrestleMania 43. Introducing a power struggle-Reigns versus a disgruntled Uso, with Zayn eyeing the throne-could fuel a “civil war” storyline. Such tension would give the faction fresh drama and keep viewers hooked through Summer Slam, where Reigns defends his title against Seth Rollins.

Rollins built his Summer Slam challenge on the **July 6** edition of SmackDown, branding the bout as the “final dance.” Meanwhile, Reigns is slated for his third title defense at Summer Slam 2026. The Raw episode next week will likely kick off the road to that showdown, and any decision about Uso’s status will surface there. Keep an eye on backstage reports; a sudden announcement could reshape the entire Bloodline hierarchy.

Being ousted would force Uso to rebuild his brand outside the family’s shadow, a move that could either revitalize his singles run or sideline him indefinitely. Conversely, a triumphant return-perhaps after winning a championship-would cement his loyalty and reinforce Reigns’ narrative of redemption. Either path will define Uso’s legacy in the next chapter of WWE storytelling.
