57-year-old WWE legend must finally return after two years to confront Roman Reigns

It’s no secret that members of Roman Reigns’ Bloodline faction have had various conflicts with each other in WWE. Even now, there appears to be some friction between Reigns and The Usos. With that in mind, could the legendary Rikishi — Jimmy and Jey Uso’s father — take part in the storyline at some point?
While the 57-year-old has been retired for a while, he is still a part of the industry in a non-wrestling capacity. Rikishi’s last WWE appearance came in November 2020, during The Undertaker’s retirement ceremony at Survivor Series. Should the WWE Hall of Famer return, it would make sense to pit him against Reigns.

A major aspect of The Bloodline’s current run is that The Tribal Chief has The Usos firmly under his thumb. As part of the story, Sami Zayn — a former member of the faction — has repeatedly encouraged Jey Uso to break free from Roman Reigns’ manipulative ways.
