A new Bloodline family member has been spotted in Saudi Arabia ahead of this weekend’s WWE action in the country.
In what is WWE’s only trip to Saudi Arabia of 2025, Riyadh’s Kingdom Arena is set to host today’s Friday Night SmackDown and tomorrow night’s WWE Night of Champions premium live event.
Ahead of the weekend’s events a notable WWE signing has reportedly been spotted in Saudi Arabia amid speculation regarding a potential television debut.
According to PWInsider, former NJPW star Hikuleo has been spotted among the WWE roster by fans in the country.
While his visit to Saudi Arabia would suggest that he may be finally set to make his on-screen debut in WWE, it’s worth remembering that he has competed in dark matches at the past two SmackDown tapings (June 13 & June 20).
If Hikuleo was to make his debut however, it would come almost exactly one year following his reported signing with the company.
While the expectation following his signing last Summer was that he’d join up with Solo Sikoa’s then flourishing New Bloodline faction, reports afterwards stated that the near 7ft tall star would be debuting in NXT, but this never materialised.
We will provide further updates on Hikuleo’s WWE debut plans if more news becomes available.
