MFTs

[0.0] "They can say it means "My Family Tree" but all I can see or hear Man Fungible Token. It's a terrible name for a terrible team so it definitely suits them."

[2.0] "The faction wasn't a straight zero, I found them to have that kind of aura, completely carried by Solo Sikoa however, because in the ring it was terrible."

[1.0] "Considering how good Solo Sikoa has been since leaving the MFTs, and how boring and nondescript he was when he was a member, this faction held back one of the most charismatic and entertaining workers on RAW right now, and for what? It's not like Tama and Talla Tonga benefitted much from it, hell, I'd say they're better off now with Haku."

[1.0] "Awful. Has some bright spots with the occasional match here and there, but it's done nothing but drag down everyone involved."

[0.0] "Just the absolute worst faction in recent memory and not just for being a Temu Bloodline. Equivalent to Los Boricuas or DOA in the late '90's, full of interchangeable wrestlers nobody cares about with neverending feuds that dragged down other wrestlers into the MFTs vortex. I don't think a single person ever cared about a Talla Tama Tonga Loa match yet we were constantly subjected to at least one MFTs segment on every SmackDown for like a year. If this was all an effort to elevate Solo Sikoa or anyone else involved, it failed miserably. Solo now finds himself in exactly the same place he was before the MFTs reign of complete shit."

[5.0] "At first this stable could not have been less interesting because they just kept getting their asses beat by Jacob Fatu but ever since they reintroduced them with the face paint and added Tama Tonga, I feel like they've gotten a lot more compelling and actually have potential now"

[0.0] "Just why? The MFTs are so boring and have no charisma. Every single time they come on I immediately feel the urge to change the channel. To be clear I don't hate Solo or Tama Tonga but the way they are booked is just atrocious. Not to mention bringing in Jeff Cobb, who was by far the most talented wrestler in the group, and then releasing him without ever doing anything with him. This group is just a failed experiment."

[0.0] "The worst WWE faction of the last 20 years at least! I turn my TV off everytime they're on my screen, well that's if I haven't fallen asleep during Smackdown already. Pointless, irrelevant, boring, bad in the ring, no personality, waste of tv time, taking up spots of those who are underutilised/recently released. Awful faction."

[1.0] "Haku's kids fucking suck so bad. Solo Sikoa sucks. Depressing to see the 43-year-old supremely talented half-Irish, half-Filipino Jeff Cobb get thrown into such a shitty stable centered around FAMILY with a bunch of dudes he has nothing to do with just 'cause he's also from a small island in the Pacific. Solo Sikoa doesn't look or act like anything like an effective leader so when you put it all together this all genuinely an absolute turd of a stable."

[2.0] "Six months ago it would have been 0. The return of Tama Tonga and face paint gimmick drags it up to a 2. But this has still been awful. Hard to believe this is what remains of the Bloodline."

[1.0] "As it currently stands this faction was a mistake and even if solo was a main eventer he should have been on his own instead of a faction. Also what doesn't help is that the faction is holding back Tama Tonga and Jeff Cobb (Im not calling him his wwe ringname). I really think that Tonga and Cobb should go off on their own and make solo a lighthearted babyface"

[1.0] "Like, what's the point of this group? I understand that they needed Solo to have his own group that would be the "spiritual sequence" of the bloodline, but this is just horrible. I cannot understand how can you sign someone as good as Jeff Cobb and turn him into JC MATEO! I'm looking forward to the day that they get disbanded."

[2.0] "[Other than Solo Sikoa, there are NO redeeming qualities about this faction. Every match they have is mediocre at best and unwatchable at worst. No one except Solo gets a chance to talk, when they interfere (which is inevitable btw) they get beaten up like jobbers, so every match is a DQ. Everyone they have feuded with has ended up worse then when they started the feud (LA Knight, Jacob Fatu, Jimmy Uso). And now they have even caused a DQ in Sami's match on Raw and so I pray for Sami's career this year. Also, no one should take them seriously when I don't think any of the members have had a clean pin win in 2025. They are the main reason I have stopped watching Smackdown during that period]. I have come back to this review and their presentation is slightly better with the face paint, Their feud with the Wyatt Sicks does have some heat with the lantern stealing which is an interesting angle but it has lost a lot of steam because they do endless back-to-back video promos and neither faction has managed to capture the same feeling as their predecessors (Wyatt family and Bloodline, even the New Bloodline), and it has left their feud feeling stale. Originally I gave it a 1, a few months ago I would have given it a 3 but it has gone back down to a 2/10"

[4.0] "It's not an awful faction, gives Solo some spotlight. I dislike that Jeff Cob/JC Mateo has been thrown in it, he has much more to provide. It is a good faction for Tonga Loa and Talla Tonga. Tama Tonga works well with Solo."

[0.0] "I was expecting this faction to have the same amount of presence/aura of the Bloodline 1.0 or 2.0, but you can't replace Roman and the Usos with Solo and some random guys the main core audience have never heard of and brought in, expecting everyone to immediately be drawn in. The faction has been underwhelming and I can't take them seriously. If they continue with more "Bloodline" stuff, it needs to be properly executed with fresh dynamics."

[2.0] "[1.9] MFT has to be one of the most boring factions of all-time. The fact this is the TOP HEEL faction on SmackDown really shows how bad SmackDown has become in 2025. Solo Sikoa is funny but mediocre in-ring, Mateo hasn't come into his own and struggles with the WWE Style, Tonga Loa is Tonga Loa and Hikuleo doesn't add anything to the faction in-general. When Solo Sikoa lost the Ula Fala so did all his aura and credibility as a heel. EDIT: This faction failed hard, huh? They tried to make a heel faction have a comedy leader, boring wrestling, bland moments and terrible booking. They rebooted MFT recently with new looks and it seemed to not help at all and made everyone look silly other than Tama Tonga."

[2.0] "They have a lot of potential, but they just don't do anything! They never talk, they never look like badasses, they just kinda exist in tag matches sometimes. The face paint feels like it could be a nice fresh start, but I'm not confident that they'll do much with it. To be clear its not the wrestlers fault, Solo is amazing and the rest have their strengths, its the booking that totally lets them down"

[0.0] "This group is symptomatic of the creative crisis the company is facing. The New Bloodline looked kinda alright, kinda acceptable at least. But this new MFT group is actually horrendous. Yeah Sikoa improved a little bit, but he still is a bad wrestler and character. Jeff Cobb was a beast, but he sadly became completely pointless. The rest of the group is an outrage, they literally recruited bad wrestlers. The problem is thag they are supposed to be an important heel faction, terrifying."

[3.0] "Yeah it's pretty much just Solo and his lackeys, er, I mean his MFTs, his My Family Trees. I don't see a WWE future for these guys outside of the Bloodline vortex. They also have that same-thing-every-week disease where it's Jimmy (who's now on RAW with Jey) or Jacob or Sami coming to make saves. They aren't even that good in the ring besides Jeff Cobb, but they've barely given him a lotta time to perform at his best, and I feel like he would've been better off in maybe the golden era of Black & Gold NXT. I wonder what's next for them now that Jimmy's presumably helping Jey fend off The Vision."

[0.0] "Genuinely fucking ass as a faction. You hire the 3 of the most bang average to shit wrestler NJPW had to offer in the members of G.o.D then stick them in a faction with the all round bore that is solo it is just shit and they somehow win matches they have no right to be. Free my boy Jeff Cobb he might have made one of the worst career choices ever"

[1.0] "I don't think i've ever seen a faction with less aura, literally the defintion of aura less. JC is a good in ring worker I feel like the bloodline and him being in this faction is holding him back, Talla is a decent big man that works for the group, Loa is Loa, and Solo I will give him credit since he's lost the Tribal Chief name he started to use the funny elements that we saw a bit during that run and he's been slightly better but still nothing good, they take up lots of screen time and my favorite member is actually Loa, let that sink in, that's how mid this group is, whenver Tama Tonga returns maybe this group will be better but for now it's not good at all"

[0.0] "Temu Version of The Bloodline. This Group was very boring last year. Solo Sikoa's version of The Bloodline was fun because of Jacob Fatu; without that muscle, it's just boring and Jeff Cobb, and I feel bad for."

[3.0] "Weakest version of the Bloodline so far. Solo does shine more than he did when paired with Fatu or Roman. They have not done anything to make you care about the other talents in the group despite the potential Cobb and Hikuleo. They have time to turn it around still"

[0.0] "In 2023 the standard formula for smackdown was: Main event/Upper mid card guy comes out bloodline interrupts tag match main event In 2025 the standard formula for smackdown is: Main event/Upper mid card guy comes out my family tree interrupts tag match main event There is no reason for them do be doing bloodline lore every show especially now with one of the least convincing factions I have ever seen Solo does not work as a faction leader we already knew this Jeff lost all his ability to wrestle in 4 months The only thing talla has going for him is he is tall and nothing else Tonga has always been the worse of his tag team This sucks"

[0.0] "If ever you needed some type of proof of what wrestling has became since HHH took over, OH BOY HAVE YOU FOUND IT. Keep in mind this is not some comedy or midcard level stable as the name and wrestlers involved make it seem, oh no no. This is the stable getting wins over ex tag title holders MCMG , and Jacob Fatu. Absolute dogshit"

[0.0] "0 because everything about them sucks. Bland, very average in the ring. They take up too much tv time and bury other talent. This group is complete s***. Giving them a 1 would be too generous"

[0.0] "An extremely boring stable that stains every match and storyline they are involved in. Only Jeff Cobb is a pretty good wrestler while the rest of them can, at best, produce extremely mediocre matches. They are all charism vacuums and have contributed nothing positive since forming, with this being Solo's 2nd time being head of his Bloodline, and extremely big downgrade from his original Bloodline w/ G.O.D and Jacob Fatu."

[2.0] "Another weird version of bloodline. This time only decent preformer is Jeff Cobb and Solo Sikoa (every now and then). I don't really see the point of bringing very limited wrestlers like Talla Tonga, since after the whole Bloodline saga is done, he will either get sent to NXT/Main Event, or just released."

[1.0] "The rip-off of the Temu Bloodline, somehow. I think Solo is a funny dude, but at this point WWE has so many Bloodlines that everything feels silly and unnecessary."
