**WWE Rumors: Real-Life Bloodline Member Set for Imminent Return**

Recent reports suggest that a real-life Bloodline member might make a comeback to WWE soon. This superstar is Trinity Fatu, also known as Naomi, who is married to Jimmy Uso, the brother of Roman Reigns. The couple recently celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary.

Naomi, during her WWE career, held the SmackDown Women’s Championship twice and, along with Sasha Banks, won the Women’s Tag Team Championship on one occasion. Disappointed with their booking, Naomi and Sasha Banks left WWE in May 2022. After departing from WWE, Naomi joined TNA and held the Knockouts Championship for over 180 days.

Naomi recently lost her title, and rumors are circulating that she might make a return to WWE through the upcoming Royal Rumble 2024 match. According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter’s latest report, Naomi’s storyline with TNA is expected to conclude soon, and she might bid farewell to the company after this weekend’s Impact Wrestling tapings in Orlando.

**Emotional Message After TNA Loss:**

After Jordan Grace defeated Naomi at the Hard to Kill premium live event, Grace praised Naomi and delivered an emotional message. Grace stated, “I can’t say enough about Trinity that hasn’t already been said. She came here, found herself, and was fantastic as a champion. I don’t think there’s any doubt about that. I needed this win today because people always come here and change themselves.”

It’s worth noting that Naomi’s real-life friend Sasha Banks is also rumored to make a return to WWE through Royal Rumble 2024, and there are speculations about her possibly joining AEW.

In this week’s WWE SmackDown episode, backstage tensions between Austin Theory and Carmelo Hayes escalated into a scheduled match. Unfortunately, the bout ended abruptly due to injuries sustained by both superstars. Carmelo Haze initially displayed dominance, executing a DDT and an inverted atomic drop with a top rope clothesline. The match took a dangerous turn when Austin Theory, attempting a Spanish Fly from the top rope, landed on his head, causing significant harm to both competitors.

Referee intervention was immediate, leading to the match being stopped without a definitive result. WWE promptly provided an update on the injuries, stating, “Update: Austin Theory and Carmelo Hayes were examined for injuries after their SmackDown match. Both suffered facial contusions and are expected to recover.”

Meanwhile, Solo Sikoa, Roman Reigns’ brother, faced adversity on SmackDown. Sikoa, alongside Jimmy Uso, initiated a brutal assault on Cameron Grimes and later targeted Randy Orton in the main event. Despite the attacks, Randy Orton not only returned to the match but also led his team to victory. Post-match, Orton, LA Knight, and AJ Styles further compounded Solo Sikoa’s plight, delivering a triple powerbomb on the commentary table.

WWE SmackDown’s New Year’s Revolution delivered an exhilarating show, highlighted by the unexpected return of Karrion Kross and the Authors of Pain (AOP) alongside Paul Ellering. During Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits’ promo, the trio emerged, creating chaos as Akam and Razor attacked Lashley, Angelo Dawkins, and Montez Ford.

Kross took to Instagram, sharing a snapshot of his formidable team with a caption wishing everyone a “Happy New Year.” The return of former Tag Team Champions AOP, absent from WWE since their release in September 2020, adds excitement to the tag team division. Additionally, the return of Paul Ellering strategically complements the charisma of Karrion Kross and Scarlett.

The potential storyline against The Bloodline is teased, promising an intense and memorable narrative. As always, the success of this alliance will depend on the creative direction, and only time will unveil the twists and turns in Karrion Kross’ journey back to dominance in the WWE.
