Under the creative leadership of Triple H, factions have been more common in WWE than under Vince McMahon with The Bloodline, Alpha Academy, Damage CTRL, Final Testament, The Judgment Day, LWO, and Legado Del Fantasma.
NJPW run
One faction could be getting a new member down the line after a notable free agent has signed with the company in the way of Tama Tonga.
The top NJPW star is headed to the company after working for NJPW for nearly 14 years as he finished up this past Saturday in a tag team match.
Tonga had an offer from WWE seven years ago that he turned down in order to stay with NJPW and team with his brother Tanga Loa. They’re the sons of WWE Legend Haku.
Connection
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported that Tama “is considered part of the “family” by Dwayne Johnson, Reigns, etc., and the idea of him in the Bloodline in some form down the line has been considered.”
The Rock, Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns, Jimmy Uso, and Solo Sikoa currently make up the faction. It’s still unclear exactly when he is set to start with the company.
