LA Knight might surprise a lot of people by siding with Roman Reigns and The Bloodline at the upcoming Survivor Series WarGames event.

With Survivor Series now just over a month away, it’s looking increasingly likely that this year’s annual WarGames match will see The Bloodline team up against The 946.

This past Monday on Raw, The 946 added Carmelo Hayes to its ranks, meaning that there are now four male members of the group likely to compete in WarGames – Hayes, Royce Keys, Bronco Nima and Lucien Price.

Over on The Bloodline side, Solo Sikoa seems to have reacquainted himself with his brothers The Usos at the behest of their cousin and Bloodline leader Roman Reigns, meaning those four look set to be teammates for WarGames too.

However, the last few years of WarGames matches on the WWE main roster have consisted of five members on each team, not four, meaning there are spots open on both sides.

The men currently missing from WarGames

In a recent article, we mentioned that two prominent names are currently missing from the equation: LA Knight and Jacob Fatu.

While many fans expect Fatu to be on The Bloodline side of the fray, meaning either Knight or someone else would have to join up with The 946, that might not actually be the case.

LA Knight and Roman Reigns just had a World Heavyweight Championship match at Money in the Bank – a match won by Reigns that featured no outside interference, and ended with Reigns acknowledging and respecting Knight’s efforts.

Knight has also been on good terms as of late with Solo Sikoa – Reigns, Sikoa or both could quite conceivably convince Knight to join them.

And even if there are questions over people’s allegiances, WWE has made that a focal point of WarGames throughout the years anyway. It would actually be a bit odd if both teams were fully cohesive and made up of five men who had zero issues and tensions with each other.

Where does that leave Jacob Fatu?

The only question then is: where does that leave Jacob Fatu? If the Bloodline side of WarGames is Reigns, Sikoa, Knight and The Usos, where does Fatu fit in?

Well, he could end up on The 946 side.

That might sound strange considering 946 member Jaida Parker just ran him over with a car, but Fatu never really wanted to become embroiled with Royce Keys and The 946, and constantly advised The Usos to not get involved.

There’s every chance Fatu blames them for him getting run over, and actually decides the best thing for him to do is to join forces with The 946 instead of continuing to fight against them.

That would all amount to WarGames being Roman Reigns, LA Knight, Solo Sikoa, Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso facing Royce Keys, Jacob Fatu, Carmelo Hayes, Bronco Nima and Lucien Price.

Perhaps not what people are expecting right now, but an interesting route to take for sure.
