Ladies and gentlemen, we have yet another case of WWE signing a powerhouse talent… and then forgetting they exist. Hikuleo, the towering son of wrestling legend Haku, was signed by WWE last July, but according to Fightful Select, he’s been quietly chilling on the company’s internal roster with zero creative plans in sight. That’s right—he’s been on the bench longer than your favorite unused MyGM draft pick.
Meanwhile, his brothers Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa wasted no time making an impact after WrestleMania 40, aligning with Solo Sikoa in what is now the Bulletproof Bloodline. So, where’s Hikuleo? Did WWE forget they signed him? Did he get lost in catering? Did someone mistake him for a very large, very menacing stagehand? The mystery continues.
Adding to the family drama, Lance Anoa’i—Roman Reigns’ cousin and another Bloodline-adjacent signee—remains injured, with no return in sight. It seems like WWE is collecting Samoan dynasties like Infinity Stones, but they’re leaving half of them in the drawer.
For now, Hikuleo waits. When will he debut? Who knows. Maybe he’ll show up unannounced, maybe he’ll get the classic “creative has nothing for you” treatment. Or maybe, just maybe, he’ll pull a Jade Cargill and appear out of nowhere after months of speculation.
Stay tuned, folks. This is developing—assuming WWE remembers to develop it.
