The Bloodline attacks Paul Heyman on WWE SmackDown
The Bloodline have turned against Paul Heyman.
Heyman was attacked by the group and put through a table on Friday’s WWE SmackDown episode from Madison Square Garden in New York City after the group’s “Wise Man” refused to acknowledge Solo Sikoa as his Tribal Chief.
A show-long storyline played out on Friday’s SmackDown with Sikoa toying with WWE Hall of Famer Heyman. Sikoa claimed that Heyman was his Wise Man and that he had taken Heyman’s advice that Jacob Fatu was too dangerous to join The Bloodline and would not be at the building for the Bloodline Acknowledgment Ceremony.
The Bloodline closed the show, with Sikoa revealing that he had lied to Heyman and Fatu was in fact at the arena for the ceremony. Sikoa went through the group from Tama Tonga, to Tonga Loa, to Fatu, and all acknowledged Sikoa as Tribal Chief.
Sikoa turned to Heyman and asked Heyman to place Roman Reigns’ Ula Fala necklace on Sikoa and acknowledge Sikoa as his Tribal Chief.
Heyman refused, and was attacked by Tonga, Loa, Fatu, and Sikoa. Fatu hit a top rope splash to Heyman in the ring, and then al four members of the group hit a powerbomb on Heyman through the ringside announce table.
After SmackDown went off the air, Heyman was stretchered out of the arena.
Friday’s angle with Heyman paves the way for the eventual return of Roman Reigns as a babyface to feud with the current Bloodline constituted of Sikoa, Tonga, Loa, and Fatu. Reigns has been on hiatus since WrestleMania 40 when he dropped the Undisputed WWE Championship to Cody Rhodes.
Sikoa seized control of The Bloodline in the absence of Reigns, and went so far as to tell Heyman on last week’s SmackDown that Reigns would not be returning to the group in storyline.
