    When it comes down to the final clash of Bloodlines, I expect the OG Bloodline to be one man down - and the pop of all pops when the Honorary Uce's music hits!

    The blue brand invades Madison Square Garden in New York City this evening. Tonight's episode will feature a "Bloodline Acknowledgment Ceremony." The faction will officially welcome Jacob Fatu to the group.

    Well that was some ending...

    Roman Reigns return is going to be something else



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,353 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    The stubble, the red eyes. Heyman was great.

    That's him written out now for a while. So the question is what do we get first - Roman's music hitting or hearing "Ladies and gentlemen…"?

    Is there a timeline for Roman's return? Summerslam?

    Heyman's commitment to the bit continues to be something else.

    And that flaming eyes wolf logo be kewl.

    None of the nu Bloodline should be talking at length ever. Or get wet, exposed to direct sunlight or fed after midnight.

    I am wondering myself what the plan for SummerSlam is. Because Randy keeps making these subtle facial expressions towards Cody and I'd absolutely love that to happen!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,353 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    When I saw the flaming eyes wolf logo, I though they had just added flames to Corbin's wolf logo.

    Heyman could do with using his time off tv losing a bit of weight.

    When three large Samoans struggle to lift you it might be time to look at weight loss for the good of your long term health.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 92,193 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    I think Solo vs. Cody for the title is the latest talk for Summerslam but I'd prefer Orton vs. Cody

    Heyman for me has been "the mvp" "the seller" of Bloodline V2, he will be missed, his expressions, emotions just top notch

    So will Roman or Brock come back to avenge Paul Heyman

    So Drew and Bron Breaker got 'fined' in the past for unprovoked attacks, so will the Bloodline V2 get the same treatment ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 92,193 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Oh my imagine if Paul shows up with both Reigns and Lesnar

    Yes will Nick fine The Bloodline V2?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,653 ✭✭✭Cotts72


    That would be awful, Lesnar has no business siding with reigns



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 92,193 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    WWE might not even have Lesnar ever returning as he was connected to Vince's dirty antics

    I just wonder will Reigns return at Summerslam now with his father's passing

    Can DIY win the tag titles tonight?

    **** yes, lads. So happy for them.

    To be fair HHH respects tag wrestling more than his predecessor did. They could end up having a healthy run with the titles.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,708 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    One thing I'd worry about with Reigns returning is that he's not a great sympathetic babyface.

    The crowd just want him to come back, destroy and takeover. I don't know if people will take kindly if he comes back and Solo & crew get more heat.

    It's just a thought ...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,653 ✭✭✭Cotts72


    I think it needs to fester till Summerslam with Solo calling him out weekly to leave fans second guessing if he'll show or not. Have Jimmy screw Solo at Summerslam and then have Reigns walk out after with Heyman and stare down the new bloodline

    Delighted that DIY finally got a main event title win

    Delighted for DIY, hopefully this can be a good shot in the arm to the tag team division too. I definitely want a Ciampa/Gargano main roster feud someday but that should be way off.

    I knew I'd seen this finish before and was reminded this is how DIY won their first (and only) tag team championship in NXT agains the Revival… in Toronto. So the Shatter Machine was a nice touch.

    As for Roman returning, I definitely think they have to play it slow. I'm interested to see where it goes but as soon as Roman comes back people are expecting war. I think part of the reason Heyman is written off is because next time he comes back Roman will be with him. The fact we haven't seen Jimmy since Mania is interesting too. I think they should use that and have Solo summon him to acknowledge him as the new tribal chief and then you can kick the story off from there to introduce Roman.

    I think the most likely option is that Roman or some degree of the old Bloodline will cost Solo his chance to get the title from Cody at Summerslam.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,744 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    Solo and Tama took Jimmy out of the Bloodline already. He was injured so written off TV.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,473 ✭✭✭ThePott


    Oh snap, you're right. It was the Smackdown after Mania so it just slipped my mind.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,353 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Delighted for DIY and sounded like Corey was really happy for them as well.

    That bit at the end with Solo made me think he looks similar to Tazz.

    Watching all the women during Bayley's match again made me think they could do with a mid card title. Like I think Chelsea would be an enjoyable Mid card champ with her enforcer.

    Drew cooked his fellow competitors on the mic

    No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change this World



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,353 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    It's great the fans are so behind him, chanting "DM Hunk"



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 478 ✭✭Tom1991


    im at the whole weekend for mitb ,

    Drew really makes everyone look tiny in comparison , its alot louder in the arena than tv but i dont think any crowd will beat backlash.

    The tag match was amazing in person the near falls popped me every time.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,473 ✭✭✭ThePott


    Sounds class. Always think it sounds less loud on tv than in person. Funny when you see the people who get 'a quiet pop' and then you hear recordings from the stadium.

    Enjoy the weekend! We're not half jealous 😝

    Theory and Waller getting a rematch

    Piper starting a cult?

    I was going to make a comment on the MitB thread about how long it would be until the wrestlers start wearing sponsor names, then I saw Ciampa this week.
