Find out the relation between the Samoan Bulldozer, Umaga and The Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns and The Usos.

Roman Reigns is currently the face of WWE, and it doesn’t seem like he’s dropping his Undisputed Universal Championship anytime soon. Similarly, The Usos were also on the top of the roster before they lost their title against Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn at WrestleMania.

Nevertheless, the on-screen chemistry between The Tribal Chief and The Usos is simply undeniable and it can be a reason why they are related in real life. Just like many other Samoan WWE superstars such as The Rock, Rikishi, and Yokozuna, the members of the Bloodline were also born into the legendary Anoa’i family.

As a result, fans often find themselves troubled by the family tree of pro-wrestling royalty. Thus, one of the most common questions raised about The Usos and Roman Reigns is related to the late Umaga.

The answer to the question is yes. The Samoan Bulldozer was the son of Elevera Anoa’i, who was the sister of Roman Reigns‘ father Sika. Therefore, it means that Umaga was Reigns’ first cousin.

Taking about The Usos, their father, Rikishi was the elder brother of Umaga. Hence, it means that Eddie “Umaga” Fatu was the uncle of Jimmy and Jey Uso. Also, the members of The Bloodline have paid the late wrestler homage several times. 

What are WWE’s current plans for Roman Reigns and The Usos?

Roman Reigns is expected to defend his WWE Undisputed Universal Championship at the Night of Champions, where he’ll complete 1000 days as the champion. However, his opponent for the Premium Live Event has yet to be confirmed. There were also a few talks in the creative team about how Triple H wants Reigns to break Hulk Hogan’s record reign of 1483 days.

As a few reports suggest, he can possibly square off against AJ Styles or Bobby Lashley considering the fact that he is staying with the Blue Brand even after WWE Draft. However, his opponent will be revealed in a couple of weeks. 

On the other hand, The Usos alongside Solo Sikoa defeated WWE Undisputed Tag Team Champions Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn with Matt Riddle at Backlash. However, a few cracks in The Bloodline were addressed by the fans. Hence, WWE’s plans for The Usos are yet to prevail.
