An update has emerged on a new Bloodline family member in WWE, who recently made his debut for the company.
With former NJPW Strong Openweight Champion Hikuleo joining WWE in July 2024, he only recently made his debut for the promotion, competing in a dark match ahead of the June 13 SmackDown episode.
In a new update, Hikuleo has wrestled another non-televised match for the promotion, this time ahead of the June 20 SmackDown episode.
You can view a video of Hikuleo’s latest WWE entrance below.
Despite a trademark filing for Talla Tonga many months ago which was rumored to be his new name, the new WWE star once again wrestled as “Hikuleo”.
Hikuleo is the nephew and adoptive son of Haku. He’s the brother of WWE star Tama Tonga, and the cousin and adoptive brother of Tonga Loa.
The July 20 edition of SmackDown marked a big moment for the on-screen Bloodline faction, with Jacob Fatu refusing to return to Solo Sikoa’s side.
Fatu is now slated to defend his US Championship against Sikoa at Night of Champions on June 28.
