Roman Reigns WARNED By WWE Legend Tatanka As NEW Bloodline Rises In WWE 2025
In an unexpected turn within the world of professional wrestling, veteran superstar Tatanka has publicly issued a stark warning to the dominant figure of the WWE, Roman Reigns. While acknowledging Reigns’ historic run and the strength of his “Bloodline” dynasty, Tatanka believes that the era led by Reigns may be approaching a seismic shift.
Tatanka’s comments follow a recent revelation that his own sons are training under the banner of WWE’s Performance Center and “The Dungeon,” positioning themselves as potential challengers to Reigns’ hegemony. The legend framed their arrival as the emergence of a “new Bloodline” rooted in Native American heritage — a direct reference to Reigns’ Samoan lineage and the long-running Bloodline narrative in WWE.
In his own words, Tatanka congratulated Reigns on “doing tremendous things for the Samoan dynasty… your Bloodline,” but followed up with a threat: “there’s a new Bloodline coming into the WWE. It’s the first blood. It’s the native blood. It’s the Tribal blood… So you better hold on to those titles, because when the Native Americans arrive, it’s going to be 1-2-3 and we’re going to have new champions.”
The timing of this challenge is significant. Reigns has held a central position in WWE for well over a decade, his long title reign (1,316 days as Undisputed WWE Universal Champion) cementing his status as the face of the company. With WWE now teeming with rising stars and evolving storylines in 2025, the suggestion of an incoming faction seeking to dethrone Reigns adds a compelling layer to the company’s narrative direction.
What makes Tatanka’s remarks especially compelling is their metatextual dimension: wrestling fans recognise the “Bloodline” storyline as one of WWE’s most prominent plotlines over recent years, centered on Reigns and his cousins. Tatanka is essentially proposing a mirror image – a new faction or dynasty built around his sons challenging Reigns’ legacy. If WWE chooses to develop that storyline on-screen, it could mark a major pivot point for Reigns’ character and the wider landscape.
From a storyline perspective, this sets up several possible trajectories: Reigns could face an organised faction rooted in Native American identity, the “old guard” Reigns could begin a transition out of top-heel status, or WWE could lean into a generational shift in power. Tatanka’s comments may serve as foreshadowing for WWE’s creative direction heading into the latter half of 2025 and beyond.
For Roman Reigns himself, the warning serves as a reminder that dominance is never guaranteed. Even the most dominant champions must defend not only titles but legacy. Reigns will need to adapt, anticipate challengers both inside and outside his established circle, and perhaps begin mentoring or forming alliances to stay on top. WWE has already noted that avoiding stagnation for Reigns and making space for new stars is a key concern.
In closing, the landscape of WWE in 2025 is appearing far more dynamic than it has been in recent years. With Tatanka putting Reigns on notice and hinting at a new faction rising, fans should expect shifts in alliances, title pictures and perhaps even the end of Reigns’ unchallenged reign at the top. Whether this challenge materialises as a full-fledged “Native Bloodline” storyline or remains behind-the-scenes groundwork, the message is clear: the era of Roman Reigns’ dominance may be entering its most significant test.
