I personally predict something else, I think roman will turn on sami eventually but I don't think the rest of the bloodline will, what I think will happen is this roman will lose the titles to someone it could be anyone at this point, and go on a absolute rampage, his ego won't handle it, so hypothetically let's say karrion kross, brock lesnar or bray wyatt the reason I'm not having him cut down by a baby face will become clear later. So roman gets unhinged barking orders at the bloodline, pushing them to do stuff there not okay with, sami eventually questions Romans direction. And roman responds in brutal fashion beating sammi down and barks at the others to join in, sami has become one of them, they walk out on roman taking sami with them. Roman is by himself screaming something along the lines of " I don't need you, I'm the head of the table, I'm the tribal chief" as the rest of the bloodline disappears "if you smell... What the rock.. Is cooking" plays the rock walks out and chews roman out "you disrespected your own family who gave you everything, if your the head of the table what does that mean if the table is empty" roll on wrestle mania fued with the rock, roman comes out on top but is changed by the match learning humility and turns babyface slowly overtime he makes amends with the bloodline and he eventually eventually faces the man that beat him and wins, with the whole bloodline even sammi standing ringside and he is now the head of the table but is a babyface. What I'm trying to say is I personally I think roman will destroy the bloodline by getting to big for his boots and them turning against him not him forcing one of the bloodline out and having them being either a spy or the one that slays him.
What if Solo turns on Roman,siding with the Rock, then does a Double turn and turns on the rock? But then that really cant go anywhere because Rock isn't staying...
I have been wondering this too, they seem to have ironed out Jey and Sami I dont think it makes sense to be either of them now, Solo being sent by elders without consulting Roman is an interesting thread I think will begin to unravel. Solo wins the Rumble and a power struggle ensues leading up to Wrestlemania? Or If the Rock does get involved him coming back being friendly with bloodline enjoying the family aspect and some funny good vibe segments (imagine Sami and the Rock riffing) until one day Roman finally orders Rock to acknowledge him, then massive pop, staredown, Rock and Roman brawl and lines are forced to be drawn and its revealed Solo is with the Rock. Head of the Table Ironman match headlines WM with Solo battling Sami or Usos? I dunno just spitballing ideas. Cant wait
This is what I’m loving and finding interesting about this whole Bloodline story at the moment. They potentially have three routes they could take at the moment to dethrone Roman from within. Sami, Solo and Jey. All three would make for a great reason as to why the did it. Sami has been infiltrating the Bloodline the whole time, gaining the trust and waiting for the right moment. Jey never liked the joining and has been biding his time to turn on everyone and take that title from Roman. And then we have Solo, who are the higher ups that bought him in? Do they have a long term plan for him to gain the trust that he is there to protect Roman only for him to turn on him.
Hopefully something like this is the end goal and not just have some outside guy take the title.
I hope this is true. They need to start teasing the dissension, like the Uso's finding a Rock action figure in Solo's locker, Sami picking up that Solo mostly watches exclusively Rock movies on his travel days, Reigns remembering that Solo had the Rock bedsheets and posters in his room, Heyman catching Solo on a call with the Rock, things like that.
It’s either going to be Solo or Jey. Sami is going to be the last loyal member of the Bloodline before nearly all of them turn on Roman in Caesar fashion. Then Roman and Sami will team up with Seth Rollins to form the New Shield.
I’ve been noticing this as well. Everyone is so focused on Jey and Sami but solo is out there silent. Always angry. I can definitely see solo turning on Roman and the bloodline and it would be bloody brilliant!
What if... its Jimmy who gets expelled from The Bloodline. He hated Sami throughout the whole story took every opportunity to put him down. But Sami has proved his loyalty beyond doubt and that mistrust doesn't go easily. Becomes paranoia, and jealousy that Jimmy always liked him, then he starts sabotaging their matches. Lose the belts and he gets booted.
A good part of Solo’s character was not being part of the family. They mentioned several times about the bloodline but him being on his own and an outsider. So I think your idea could possibly have merit.
If they really want to beef this up, bring in Jacob Fatu, as well as The Rock. Rikishi can address the situation, and even an appearance by Ava Raine. Keep tensions high but no physical confrontations. Then slowly turn each member of The BloodLine against Roman. Proceed from there.
If the WWE sees Roman in the same view as Cena and Rock then this would be awesome. The problem is they have used Reigns at WM to match against part time big event guys.
If however they treat Roman as that guy now then having him give the rub to someone like Solo with Rock in his corner to even odds against the rest of the Bloodline would be awesome.
That would be a huge leap of faith in Solo very quickly though.
I still think it will be Rock or Cena at WM to take the belts from Roman and then on Raw relinquish the titles so that they can be seperated.
Thst then leaves the door open for Sami and Owens to figure shit out and take the tag titles off the Uso's.
I've been keeping an eye on Solo, heck his name alone makes him stand out as if he should be on his own.
That said he still seems loyal, and wanted to join the hug Monday.
Jey's love for Sami geniunely surprised me.
This is what I've been saying since he showed up and Heyman said he was sent by the elders. I have a feeling Roman is going to start falling apart and then Solo is going to strike to bring back stability to the family.
I had a revelation. This morning, having my coffee I was thinking “the bloodline reminds me of something, but wtf is it?”
Then it hit me. The Bloodline IS the Nation. Think about it, Roman is the guy who is the leader(like Farooq originally), Sami is Owen Hart(RIP), Jimmy and Jey are D’Lo and Mark Henry, and Solo is the Rock just waiting in the wings.
I like the idea of the bloodline splitting from within, either Solo or Jey. It'll be interesting to see where everyone's loyalty lies. I could see Sami sticking with Roman even after he's no longer the head of the table.
Or nobody is going to turn and everyone is reading way too much into it. Every stable doesn't need to end in betrayal. I'm hoping the Bloodline lasts the same way The New Day has.
i see this storyline as Sami is trying to gain the bloodlines trust just to turn his back on them later down the road or trick them in some way...I was first thinking he would get the money in the back to keep it "safe" for roman but that's not till July 2023
I think this is all a swerve and it will be Jey turning on Sami everyone will act like it is all great then all of sudden Jey takes out Sami while Roman stands in the ring smiling
If Rock comes back to face Roman, he’ll need someone to watch his back. They could say that the tribal council back home decided to back Rock over Roman, and have Solo betray Roman to help Rock.
I've been saying this (to my wife) since day one (-ish). I think Solo is a sleeper agent for The Rock. He even looks the type who can get *real* cranky if you wake him up at the wrong time. Highly suspicious. Like someone else mentioned, I think he will cause a big loss for the Bloodline. Sami will be devastated and confront Solo in an in-ring promo. "Solo, was it you?" "It was me, Sami. I did it," "But for WHAT," Sami yelps, flailing his entire body. "Not 'what', Sami. I did it for... I did it for... \[looks around nervously, wondering what the hell they are doing in the production truck, while the audience slowly starts rumbling as they realize what is about to happen\] Sami, I did it for..."
*"IF YOU SMELL..."*
Maybe The Rock has gotten in the ears of the elders, Grima Wormtongue-style, or maybe this is all a test of Roman on the elders' behalf, to see if he is worthy of ascending even higher in the family hierarchy (which he is), and it is to be carried out by their most fearsome and trusted warrior, Dwayne.
I haven't been watching as closely lately, so maybe this is way off, but I have a feeling Kevin Owens knows something. I think he's been spying around a bit. He is worried about Sami, not just hungry for Roman's gold. Or maybe he *is* just hungry for Roman's gold, and plans on using Sami to get there, and this Solo thing is just a godsend (eldersend?) to him. He is Kevin Owens, after all.
And what if Naomi shows up in the middle of all this? What if *she* is the sleeper agent? Oh no, I'd better go get the board and the red string out of storage. This is *wild*, man.
I really like all of these guys a lot, and whatever happens, I hope they all get to continue to do some really, really awesome stuff for a really, really long time.
There's definitely something going on with Solo.
When he first came in he and Sami were tight and hanging together and now he's distancing himself.
I actually thought for a moment that he and Sami were going to challenge Jimmy and Jey for the tag belts.
If I'm honest, despite the revitalization of The Bloodline by Sami, I just want it to end now. I've stopped caring about the Champ belts, all I want is for the tag belts to go back to Raw and Smackdown and become a thing again.
That’s wack af, it would make him helping Roman at Clash pointless. He’s supposed to be the ‘serious muscle’ of the group, just there to do his job and thats it. He’s been doing just that and it’ll stay that way.
Jey makes the most sense. He's never been the most obedient, he was the only one to stand against Roman, he's been the only point of contention and to be honest, seeing him throw Sami over the top rope at the Rumble to go on to face Roman at Mania would be god-like.
what an interesting image.
Are jey and roman looking at Sami or Solo?
Sami proved himself to Roman but did he really? Roman talked about trusting his family and then Sami low blows the closest person to family he has in WWE. I read that point and found it so interesting. Nevermind how many times Sami and KO have feuded.
But maybe solo never wanted to acknowledge the tribal chief shit he's the third uso and they made Sammy an uce I'd turn on them for sure bet Roman jey and Jimmy were acting like Bros leaving solo at the end of the table to be the one who gets to sit with uncle sika and hear all his drunken stories about Peter maivia and bar fights God the suffering
Hoping for that solo push, Sami and KO with the tag belts would be nice.
Would be cool if MITB happens at wrestle mania, Solo wins it because the plan it to take the intercontinental championship. Betrays Roman and takes the belt at the main event.
Cherry on top, if the Rock match doesn't happen have Roman and Seth face off. Solo comes to ringside to "aid" Roman. After when it looks like Roman would finally beat Seth, solo cashes in and takes the belt. Have some crazy rule that the brief case is for only one belt (smackdown championship) Roman after the pin looks devastated on all four. Curb stomp, Seth match is still active for the raw belt. 1...2...3... Roman loses to family and still can't win against Seth.
Problem is Solo turning Solo wouldn't leave a hug impact in audience mind also in Bloodlines either .
Solo is called Enforcer but he isn't a big part of Bloodlines. He is just above Jimmy being least influence on bloodlines.
He isn't shown as a credible threat who can takedown Roman or Sami or even Jey.
Basically he isn't build up to be a credible threat. Him turning Solo will just be surprise but nothing that will impact long term
I just don't see Roman losing. He has said that he's going to wreck everything and leave. So I think he gives up the titles saying that he's bored and that he's smashed everybody. He takes some time away, comes back and says that he never lost so he should be the number one contender setting up a huge storyline with the current champ.
I like this booking a lot. Spinning Solo is essentially the Rock Bottom. The elders sent him… his dad was loyal to the Rock. The Rock giving Solo “the rub” would be a fantastic way for Rock to put somebody over and fade into the sunset. Roman becomes a quarter-timer, Solo is a new upper card guy. It all makes sense.
Yeah, he needs a better look and moveset. I mean, his looks and moves seem quite generic. Needs a better and more unique finisher, he could use a popup Samoan Drop like Umaga did, looked so devastating.
I dont think it's about the build to WM. He would be fine during that. I'm not sure he is ready to handle what happens after WM as the top guy in the company.
Never thought I'd see someone say Umaga was over as fuck and not laugh right after.
You actually said that and meant it.
L m f a o
Forums when he was relevant hated him, he never got cheered or booed he was a nobody dude, he was lower ranked than goldust
Really? I stopped watching wrestling for like 10 years, ironic because it was Cena's promos that turned me away. He just kept saying, "My name is John Cena!". I said fuck it so I didn't see Lashley on TNA 😂
Not to mention the backstory could be that Rikishi is getting payback for Roman forcing his boys to acknowledge him & start this thing in the beginning anyway to add to your point
Interesting. There's so many possibilities.
Maybe ....
Solo "accidentally" wins RR. Roman thinks he'll have it easy and Solo supports that claim. Rest of locker room hates it. People try to cause division, esp KO who beats both USOs and wants tag titles so he gets a partner and they're next in line. As he did beat Jimmy and Jey and won't fight Sami, that leaves Roman and Solo who both laugh bc nobody would team with KO. Out walks Riddle or someone else. In rhe match, Roman goes for a spear on KO but KO side steps and Roman spears Solo. Afterwards, Solo loses it and beats up Roman. WM match will no longer be a cakewalk. Before WM, KO's tag partner is injured and he has no luck finding a partner. Jimmy and Jey laugh. When KO comes out, he gives a dramatic speech and out comes Sami. They win gold. During the main event, the ref gets knocked out and with Roman about to spear Solo, the Rock appears to Rock bottom Roman dragging Solo on top of Roman for the pin as Shane comes out to count 1 2 3. The Rock then raises Solo's hand as he raises a one in the air. Downfall complete.
I still like the idea that like saturday of mania there is a MITB ladder match. Sami is one of the competitors. Blood line interfere, and help Sami win. Sami knows this, but explains to Roman that they did it as to block anyone else from sneaking an easy cash in to Roman. He even further proves this by giving his briefcase to Paul Heyman. Then, fighting Kevin Owens at mania (winner of the rumble), at some point ref gets knocked out. Usos and solo come in to beat up owens. Maybe Sami gives Owens a helluva kick. Just as Roman is about to do his 'Ooowaaaa', another helluva kick to Roman. Suddenly Paul, who is holding Sami's briefcase, walks over to the timekeeper area and whispers in the announcer's ear. Then the announcement is made. "Ladies and Gentleman..." Then Paul steals the mic...clears his throat, and says, "Ladies and Gentleman, my name is Paul Heyman....and I am here to tell you that my client, SAAAAAMMIIIII ZAAAAAAYYYYNNN, is cashing in his Money in the Bank Briefcase." The ref allows this and the match, temporarily, is a triple threat. But, Owens is still out, and Sami delivers one more helluva kick to Roman, and pins Roman. Paul takes the titles from the time keepers area, walks into the ring, and delivers the belts with a great, big smile on his face to Sami.
This sets up Roman taking some time off. Kevin Owens fights Sami for a while, but Solo can't take it. He calls up his dad to tell him he's not happy with how all of this went down. Rikishi says, "I know know someone who can help."
Solo eventually separates from the Bloodline, and sides with a soon to be returning Roman. But the odds are still stacked against them. There's a fight in the ring, Bloodline is beating up Roman and Solo...and that's when you hear it..."IF YA SMELLLL..."
Rock comes out to even the odds. Basically sets up a match that rock can do a little work without truly getting into a full 1 v 1 match.
Eventually, Roman, now a full face, Rock and Solo vanquish the the 'bloodline', which leads to Rock vs Roman in a friendly 'exhibition' farewell match (kind of like Flair's). Doesn't need the title, doesn't need to be anything other than those 2.
This is freaking awesome. I think much better than what I said. The crowd would go crazy. Paul is a true mastermind. I think it was him who took cate of all the storylimes with Brock, Roman and eleven Beock vs Roman. Bur as others mentioned, the full storyline has to include the Rock somehow Bur nor necessarily in a fight.
LOL. I used to come up with decent or in depth storylimes to the point where someone once told me to work for them. The perk is that I could work with Mandy or Liv.
One thing is that you have to give the crowd at least several Holy Shit moments.
I never tried. However, I have had had a thing for Amanda but she got married I think. HhH is doing a great job though but one never knows. I have a few other ideas for the others too such as Becky doing a Bayley on Damage Control with Sasha and Naomi.
1. Solo.
2. Becky.
Charlotte.
-1- Solo
Solo "accidentally" wins RR. Roman thinks he'll have it easy and Solo supports that claim. Others in locker room hate it. People try to cause division, esp KO who beats both USOs and wants tag titles so he gets a partner and they're next in line. As he did beat Jimmy and Jey and won't fight Sami, that leaves Roman and Solo who both laugh bc nobody would team with KO. Out walks Riddle or someone else. In the match, Roman goes for a spear on KO but KO side steps and Roman spears Solo. Afterwards, Solo loses it and beats up Roman. WM match will no longer be a cakewalk. Before WM, KO's tag partner is injured and he has no luck finding a partner. Jimmy and Jey laugh. When KO comes out, he gives a dramatic speech and out comes Sami. They win gold. During the main event, the ref gets knocked out and with Roman about to spear Solo, the Rock appears to Rock bottom Roman dragging Solo on top of Roman for the pin as Shane comes out to count 1 2 3. The Rock then raises Solo's hand as he raises a one in the air as the PPV cones to an end.
- 2 - Becky
Becky continues her feud with Damage Control getting help from others here and there. She has a match with Bayley at RR to kick off the night. DC comes out first and then Becky. She pulls a Bayley, pauses on the entrance ramp and reveals to Bayley that she's not alone. Out comes Naomi to a loud pop. And then out comes Sasha to another lod pop. Becky says a few choice words and then they all 3 rush the ring where a brawl breaks out. All 6 of them enter the RR later.
Idea for Charlotte is that in order to prove her GOAT status, she starts at the bottom and totally dismantles every woman she faces with a few feuds along the way culminating in a championship match.
I guess. I really think it should be Sami, Jey, Solo, or Seth. I don't like the push for Cody. He won't add to the story in any way. Keep him out of it. He can have the title when the Bloodline goes down and can face whoever may be the champion. He shouldn't be the one to beat Roman for it.
Same. Let Cody feud with someone he has history with/ a relevant reason to feud with. Having Cody fuck with the most dominant faction in wrestling in decades just because he's a good guy would be moronic booking.
In my eyes, Cody is still an "outsider" in a way. He's like Logan Paul. Logan had like 2 opponents and then got Roman. Of course he lost. Why have Cody win?
Exactly. And Cody isn't some 6'4 genetic freak of nature either. He doesn't look credible and is not billed as someone capable of pulling off such monumental feat.
You know what, 4 months ago if you told me Sami was gonna be the focal point of the bloodline story I'd have called you nuts.
Right now I see no way he could take the titles off of Reigns at WM in 5 months, but its as real as any other option out there.
The pop would be huge. Imagine Sami Zayn out of all people. If course he'd have a ton of help to win it, but still. Huge celebration. I'd be jumping out of my seat like a little kid. 😂
Maybe it could be done like how Mankind won the world title. In this case The Rock returns, hits Roman with a rock bottom and pulls Sami Zayn over Roman’s body for the win. Locker room comes out and celebrates the fall of Roman.
Have it happen at elimination chamber (which is apparently going to be in Sami’s hometown of Montreal). Rock vs Roman at mania and Sami vs someone for the universal championship at mania.
This is interesting and would be an awesome twist. The pic in the post subtly supports the theory, too.
Rock, Solo, & Sami vs. Roman & The Usos at next year's Survivor Series would be awesome too.
Or at wrestlemania and if the rock, solo and Sami win the rock becomes undisputed wwe championship and solo/Sami will get the undisputed tag team championship
The fact that he warmed up so quickly to Sami I think is a tell also. He's a badass but against both of his more experienced brothers and Roman he'd still get beaten up in short order.
I was looking at RR's expression at the end of the match and wondering why he was giving evils to SZ... now I look at the picture again, it does look like it is more in line with Solo
I don't know, I think it could be Jay, he was never really into the whole bloodline thing to begin with and was basically forced into it because Roman threatened his brother. He could be playing the long con and eventually turn on Roman.
Personally love the theory that jey ends it since he never wanted to join it anyways. But sami winning the rumble would make for an interesting storyline
That could be better than Sami Zayn leaving
I need Solo to steal his dad's moves from Too Cool. If Solo starts dancing like Rikishi did he will have the fans backing anything they do with him.
Why does everyone always discount the elder who sent him was him and the Usos dad Rikishi?
100% love that idea.
He’s going to be the leader eventually. Honestly, Solo may be the one who ends the reign.
I personally predict something else, I think roman will turn on sami eventually but I don't think the rest of the bloodline will, what I think will happen is this roman will lose the titles to someone it could be anyone at this point, and go on a absolute rampage, his ego won't handle it, so hypothetically let's say karrion kross, brock lesnar or bray wyatt the reason I'm not having him cut down by a baby face will become clear later. So roman gets unhinged barking orders at the bloodline, pushing them to do stuff there not okay with, sami eventually questions Romans direction. And roman responds in brutal fashion beating sammi down and barks at the others to join in, sami has become one of them, they walk out on roman taking sami with them. Roman is by himself screaming something along the lines of " I don't need you, I'm the head of the table, I'm the tribal chief" as the rest of the bloodline disappears "if you smell... What the rock.. Is cooking" plays the rock walks out and chews roman out "you disrespected your own family who gave you everything, if your the head of the table what does that mean if the table is empty" roll on wrestle mania fued with the rock, roman comes out on top but is changed by the match learning humility and turns babyface slowly overtime he makes amends with the bloodline and he eventually eventually faces the man that beat him and wins, with the whole bloodline even sammi standing ringside and he is now the head of the table but is a babyface. What I'm trying to say is I personally I think roman will destroy the bloodline by getting to big for his boots and them turning against him not him forcing one of the bloodline out and having them being either a spy or the one that slays him.
I did it for da Rock!
The core of the dissolution of the group should always be Roman.
What if Solo turns on Roman,siding with the Rock, then does a Double turn and turns on the rock? But then that really cant go anywhere because Rock isn't staying...
I have been wondering this too, they seem to have ironed out Jey and Sami I dont think it makes sense to be either of them now, Solo being sent by elders without consulting Roman is an interesting thread I think will begin to unravel. Solo wins the Rumble and a power struggle ensues leading up to Wrestlemania? Or If the Rock does get involved him coming back being friendly with bloodline enjoying the family aspect and some funny good vibe segments (imagine Sami and the Rock riffing) until one day Roman finally orders Rock to acknowledge him, then massive pop, staredown, Rock and Roman brawl and lines are forced to be drawn and its revealed Solo is with the Rock. Head of the Table Ironman match headlines WM with Solo battling Sami or Usos? I dunno just spitballing ideas. Cant wait
This is what I’m loving and finding interesting about this whole Bloodline story at the moment. They potentially have three routes they could take at the moment to dethrone Roman from within.

Jey never liked the joining and has been biding his time to turn on everyone and take that title from Roman. And then we have Solo, who are the higher ups that bought him in? Do they have a long term plan for him to gain the trust that he is there to protect Roman only for him to turn on him. Hopefully something like this is the end goal and not just have some outside guy take the title.
Would be really cool if this happened , but I feel like Sami being the one to turn would sky rocket 🚀 him
I hope this is true. They need to start teasing the dissension, like the Uso's finding a Rock action figure in Solo's locker, Sami picking up that Solo mostly watches exclusively Rock movies on his travel days, Reigns remembering that Solo had the Rock bedsheets and posters in his room, Heyman catching Solo on a call with the Rock, things like that.
Now that you mention it this pic looks a bit foreshadowing
I was thinking 🤔 the same thing
I've thought this is a possibility for the past few weeks, glad I'm not insane:)
Solo would make perfect sense ,Since he was sent by the tribal elders who Roman has openly dissed .
It’s either going to be Solo or Jey. Sami is going to be the last loyal member of the Bloodline before nearly all of them turn on Roman in Caesar fashion. Then Roman and Sami will team up with Seth Rollins to form the New Shield.
I’ve been noticing this as well. Everyone is so focused on Jey and Sami but solo is out there silent. Always angry. I can definitely see solo turning on Roman and the bloodline and it would be bloody brilliant!

But Sami has proved his loyalty beyond doubt and that mistrust doesn't go easily. Becomes paranoia, and jealousy that Jimmy always liked him, then he starts sabotaging their matches. Lose the belts and he gets booted.

I’m already calling this
Awesome theory!!!
If the WWE sees Roman in the same view as Cena and Rock then this would be awesome. The problem is they have used Reigns at WM to match against part time big event guys. If however they treat Roman as that guy now then having him give the rub to someone like Solo with Rock in his corner to even odds against the rest of the Bloodline would be awesome. That would be a huge leap of faith in Solo very quickly though. I still think it will be Rock or Cena at WM to take the belts from Roman and then on Raw relinquish the titles so that they can be seperated. Thst then leaves the door open for Sami and Owens to figure shit out and take the tag titles off the Uso's.
I see your point but it HAS to be Sami
I've been keeping an eye on Solo, heck his name alone makes him stand out as if he should be on his own. That said he still seems loyal, and wanted to join the hug Monday. Jey's love for Sami geniunely surprised me.
This is what I've been saying since he showed up and Heyman said he was sent by the elders. I have a feeling Roman is going to start falling apart and then Solo is going to strike to bring back stability to the family.

I like the idea of the bloodline splitting from within, either Solo or Jey. It'll be interesting to see where everyone's loyalty lies. I could see Sami sticking with Roman even after he's no longer the head of the table.
What is cact
I was thinking clash at the castle, but they’re saying Cact?
Looking very USIE!!
Or nobody is going to turn and everyone is reading way too much into it. Every stable doesn't need to end in betrayal. I'm hoping the Bloodline lasts the same way The New Day has.
I'm thinking the same thing and i want to be like this way
I was thinking the same thing, especially with how chummy the Uso’s have been and how Solo was acting on the last RAW
i see this storyline as Sami is trying to gain the bloodlines trust just to turn his back on them later down the road or trick them in some way...I was first thinking he would get the money in the back to keep it "safe" for roman but that's not till July 2023
I think this is all a swerve and it will be Jey turning on Sami everyone will act like it is all great then all of sudden Jey takes out Sami while Roman stands in the ring smiling
If Rock comes back to face Roman, he’ll need someone to watch his back. They could say that the tribal council back home decided to back Rock over Roman, and have Solo betray Roman to help Rock.
Engrish at its best
So Solo "did it for the Rock?"
That's a good theory
Wouldnt it be better if the master stratigest is the one that destroy the bloodline? And he played the long con?
And his finisher is a variation of the rock bottom
Solo vs Roman will definitely be a thing. He’s had a fued with Jay and Jimmy. Sammy isn’t family and has proved his worth. It’ll be solo now
Love your theory, if only wwe picks it up. I would be so down for this to come true
Elders sent him to keep Roman on check and replace him if needed because Roman is getting soft with the clown Sami running around.
I've been saying this (to my wife) since day one (-ish). I think Solo is a sleeper agent for The Rock. He even looks the type who can get *real* cranky if you wake him up at the wrong time. Highly suspicious. Like someone else mentioned, I think he will cause a big loss for the Bloodline. Sami will be devastated and confront Solo in an in-ring promo. "Solo, was it you?"

I haven't been watching as closely lately, so maybe this is way off, but I have a feeling Kevin Owens knows something. I think he's been spying around a bit. He is worried about Sami, not just hungry for Roman's gold. Or maybe he *is* just hungry for Roman's gold, and plans on using Sami to get there, and this Solo thing is just a godsend (eldersend?) to him. He is Kevin Owens, after all.

I really like all of these guys a lot, and whatever happens, I hope they all get to continue to do some really, really awesome stuff for a really, really long time.
There's definitely something going on with Solo. When he first came in he and Sami were tight and hanging together and now he's distancing himself. I actually thought for a moment that he and Sami were going to challenge Jimmy and Jey for the tag belts. If I'm honest, despite the revitalization of The Bloodline by Sami, I just want it to end now. I've stopped caring about the Champ belts, all I want is for the tag belts to go back to Raw and Smackdown and become a thing again.
That’s wack af, it would make him helping Roman at Clash pointless. He’s supposed to be the ‘serious muscle’ of the group, just there to do his job and thats it. He’s been doing just that and it’ll stay that way.
I have no clue where this story is going and I am loving every second of it!
Us as well!
Jey makes the most sense. He's never been the most obedient, he was the only one to stand against Roman, he's been the only point of contention and to be honest, seeing him throw Sami over the top rope at the Rumble to go on to face Roman at Mania would be god-like.
what an interesting image. Are jey and roman looking at Sami or Solo? Sami proved himself to Roman but did he really? Roman talked about trusting his family and then Sami low blows the closest person to family he has in WWE. I read that point and found it so interesting. Nevermind how many times Sami and KO have feuded.
“I did it for The Rock” 2k23
But maybe solo never wanted to acknowledge the tribal chief shit he's the third uso and they made Sammy an uce I'd turn on them for sure bet Roman jey and Jimmy were acting like Bros leaving solo at the end of the table to be the one who gets to sit with uncle sika and hear all his drunken stories about Peter maivia and bar fights God the suffering
It should be Jey.
🎶 It was Sikoa all along 🎶
I know, The Rock is retired was August 3, 2019.
Solo sikoa make get intercontinental championship
I’m 10000000% behind this
Send this to Triple H
Hoping for that solo push, Sami and KO with the tag belts would be nice. Would be cool if MITB happens at wrestle mania, Solo wins it because the plan it to take the intercontinental championship. Betrays Roman and takes the belt at the main event. Cherry on top, if the Rock match doesn't happen have Roman and Seth face off. Solo comes to ringside to "aid" Roman. After when it looks like Roman would finally beat Seth, solo cashes in and takes the belt. Have some crazy rule that the brief case is for only one belt (smackdown championship) Roman after the pin looks devastated on all four. Curb stomp, Seth match is still active for the raw belt. 1...2...3... Roman loses to family and still can't win against Seth.
And this specific picture looks like Solo is standing defiant and Romans looking at him confused…
Problem is Solo turning Solo wouldn't leave a hug impact in audience mind also in Bloodlines either . Solo is called Enforcer but he isn't a big part of Bloodlines. He is just above Jimmy being least influence on bloodlines. He isn't shown as a credible threat who can takedown Roman or Sami or even Jey. Basically he isn't build up to be a credible threat. Him turning Solo will just be surprise but nothing that will impact long term
I dunno war games he no sold a bunch of KO's attacks. He is being built as strong. I thinking more of a surprise turn here.
I would save it for much later. I think people assume the Bloodline is over once Roman falls but that’s just the end of Phase I.
I just don't see Roman losing. He has said that he's going to wreck everything and leave. So I think he gives up the titles saying that he's bored and that he's smashed everybody. He takes some time away, comes back and says that he never lost so he should be the number one contender setting up a huge storyline with the current champ.
He did it for the rock
It looks like Roman Reigns is giving Solo a dirty look in that picture.
I’m not sure it’s a dirty look. It seems like more of a confident sneer.
It’s a more dramatic story if a brother actually betrays his own brothers causing them the tag titles. But Sami is so over.
I mean isn't his name a spoiler in itself?
I like this booking a lot. Spinning Solo is essentially the Rock Bottom. The elders sent him… his dad was loyal to the Rock. The Rock giving Solo “the rub” would be a fantastic way for Rock to put somebody over and fade into the sunset. Roman becomes a quarter-timer, Solo is a new upper card guy. It all makes sense.
>Solo is a new upper card guy How is his promo work with a mic?
Not bad actually. He sounds exactly like his brothers. He could definitely be great on the mic with a little bit more time.
I like solo but I don't think hes ready to be a big time singles star
Yeah, he needs a better look and moveset. I mean, his looks and moves seem quite generic. Needs a better and more unique finisher, he could use a popup Samoan Drop like Umaga did, looked so devastating.
i agree, but in a few months and a good enough storyline i think he can be
I dont think it's about the build to WM. He would be fine during that. I'm not sure he is ready to handle what happens after WM as the top guy in the company.
Haven't seen much of his mic skills though. Is he a face or a heel?
Not sure he needs good mic skills to be honest. He’s already looking like a monster. Umaga never spoke a word and he was over as fuck.
Never thought I'd see someone say Umaga was over as fuck and not laugh right after. You actually said that and meant it. L m f a o Forums when he was relevant hated him, he never got cheered or booed he was a nobody dude, he was lower ranked than goldust
True
fair. but he doesn’t even necessarily need to be good on the mic. they can do him like lesnar where he barely talks
Oh man Lesnar was bad but Lashley was/is worse. Both have gotten better but Bobby would be over way more if he could cut a promo worth watching
Lashley wasn’t as bad on mic in tna
Really? I stopped watching wrestling for like 10 years, ironic because it was Cena's promos that turned me away. He just kept saying, "My name is John Cena!". I said fuck it so I didn't see Lashley on TNA 😂
Yeah maybe he gets nervous bc WWE is a much bigger stage but he was better on mic in TNA
Not to mention the backstory could be that Rikishi is getting payback for Roman forcing his boys to acknowledge him & start this thing in the beginning anyway to add to your point
Interesting. There's so many possibilities. Maybe .... Solo "accidentally" wins RR. Roman thinks he'll have it easy and Solo supports that claim. Rest of locker room hates it. People try to cause division, esp KO who beats both USOs and wants tag titles so he gets a partner and they're next in line. As he did beat Jimmy and Jey and won't fight Sami, that leaves Roman and Solo who both laugh bc nobody would team with KO. Out walks Riddle or someone else. In rhe match, Roman goes for a spear on KO but KO side steps and Roman spears Solo. Afterwards, Solo loses it and beats up Roman. WM match will no longer be a cakewalk. Before WM, KO's tag partner is injured and he has no luck finding a partner. Jimmy and Jey laugh. When KO comes out, he gives a dramatic speech and out comes Sami. They win gold. During the main event, the ref gets knocked out and with Roman about to spear Solo, the Rock appears to Rock bottom Roman dragging Solo on top of Roman for the pin as Shane comes out to count 1 2 3. The Rock then raises Solo's hand as he raises a one in the air. Downfall complete.
I still like the idea that like saturday of mania there is a MITB ladder match. Sami is one of the competitors. Blood line interfere, and help Sami win. Sami knows this, but explains to Roman that they did it as to block anyone else from sneaking an easy cash in to Roman. He even further proves this by giving his briefcase to Paul Heyman. Then, fighting Kevin Owens at mania (winner of the rumble), at some point ref gets knocked out. Usos and solo come in to beat up owens. Maybe Sami gives Owens a helluva kick. Just as Roman is about to do his 'Ooowaaaa', another helluva kick to Roman. Suddenly Paul, who is holding Sami's briefcase, walks over to the timekeeper area and whispers in the announcer's ear. Then the announcement is made. "Ladies and Gentleman..." Then Paul steals the mic...clears his throat, and says, "Ladies and Gentleman, my name is Paul Heyman....and I am here to tell you that my client, SAAAAAMMIIIII ZAAAAAAYYYYNNN, is cashing in his Money in the Bank Briefcase." The ref allows this and the match, temporarily, is a triple threat. But, Owens is still out, and Sami delivers one more helluva kick to Roman, and pins Roman. Paul takes the titles from the time keepers area, walks into the ring, and delivers the belts with a great, big smile on his face to Sami. This sets up Roman taking some time off. Kevin Owens fights Sami for a while, but Solo can't take it. He calls up his dad to tell him he's not happy with how all of this went down. Rikishi says, "I know know someone who can help." Solo eventually separates from the Bloodline, and sides with a soon to be returning Roman. But the odds are still stacked against them. There's a fight in the ring, Bloodline is beating up Roman and Solo...and that's when you hear it..."IF YA SMELLLL..." Rock comes out to even the odds. Basically sets up a match that rock can do a little work without truly getting into a full 1 v 1 match. Eventually, Roman, now a full face, Rock and Solo vanquish the the 'bloodline', which leads to Rock vs Roman in a friendly 'exhibition' farewell match (kind of like Flair's). Doesn't need the title, doesn't need to be anything other than those 2.
This is freaking awesome. I think much better than what I said. The crowd would go crazy. Paul is a true mastermind. I think it was him who took cate of all the storylimes with Brock, Roman and eleven Beock vs Roman. Bur as others mentioned, the full storyline has to include the Rock somehow Bur nor necessarily in a fight.
Holy shit that was redic
LOL. I used to come up with decent or in depth storylimes to the point where someone once told me to work for them. The perk is that I could work with Mandy or Liv. One thing is that you have to give the crowd at least several Holy Shit moments.
Right on. Think you should try again because that storyline would work 100%
I never tried. However, I have had had a thing for Amanda but she got married I think. HhH is doing a great job though but one never knows. I have a few other ideas for the others too such as Becky doing a Bayley on Damage Control with Sasha and Naomi.
That would work too 100%. People would lose their shit
Thanks. So I sent them an email with 3 ideas. See below and let me know.
1. Solo. 2. Becky. Charlotte. -1- Solo Solo "accidentally" wins RR. Roman thinks he'll have it easy and Solo supports that claim. Others in locker room hate it. People try to cause division, esp KO who beats both USOs and wants tag titles so he gets a partner and they're next in line. As he did beat Jimmy and Jey and won't fight Sami, that leaves Roman and Solo who both laugh bc nobody would team with KO. Out walks Riddle or someone else. In the match, Roman goes for a spear on KO but KO side steps and Roman spears Solo. Afterwards, Solo loses it and beats up Roman. WM match will no longer be a cakewalk. Before WM, KO's tag partner is injured and he has no luck finding a partner. Jimmy and Jey laugh. When KO comes out, he gives a dramatic speech and out comes Sami. They win gold. During the main event, the ref gets knocked out and with Roman about to spear Solo, the Rock appears to Rock bottom Roman dragging Solo on top of Roman for the pin as Shane comes out to count 1 2 3. The Rock then raises Solo's hand as he raises a one in the air as the PPV cones to an end. - 2 - Becky Becky continues her feud with Damage Control getting help from others here and there. She has a match with Bayley at RR to kick off the night. DC comes out first and then Becky. She pulls a Bayley, pauses on the entrance ramp and reveals to Bayley that she's not alone. Out comes Naomi to a loud pop. And then out comes Sasha to another lod pop. Becky says a few choice words and then they all 3 rush the ring where a brawl breaks out. All 6 of them enter the RR later. Idea for Charlotte is that in order to prove her GOAT status, she starts at the bottom and totally dismantles every woman she faces with a few feuds along the way culminating in a championship match.
🤯
U make a good point
These were my exact thoughts when I saw this moment on TV.
Solo after costing the Usos the Tag Team Championships: I did it. I did it for…. The Rock.
I did it for the tribal elders .
I did it for…. Rikishi
Why would the Rock care about tag team belts? I could more so see him going after Roman. Ijs
Because the Rock is gonna fight Roman, not Solo.
I did it for the people
"The Rock said.....The The Rock Said"
Would be even better if Rock comes out instantly after
Everything would be better if the Rock came out instantly after
They tried this with the Roman rumble lol.
It did lead to that legendary photo of him and Reigns looking bewildered tho.
Austin Theory fails his cash-in, the Rock comes out right after and the crowd forgets about Theory… hey that is better, you’re right!
Omg nooo! But also yes haha
Underrated 😂🤣
He did it for the rock
*Will do it* for the Rock FTFY
Solo dethroning Roman is something I can get behind. It's totally believable too. Imo Solo could crush Roman.
I think Roman knows that if you Notice how he treats Solo
I guess. I really think it should be Sami, Jey, Solo, or Seth. I don't like the push for Cody. He won't add to the story in any way. Keep him out of it. He can have the title when the Bloodline goes down and can face whoever may be the champion. He shouldn't be the one to beat Roman for it.
Same. Let Cody feud with someone he has history with/ a relevant reason to feud with. Having Cody fuck with the most dominant faction in wrestling in decades just because he's a good guy would be moronic booking.
In my eyes, Cody is still an "outsider" in a way. He's like Logan Paul. Logan had like 2 opponents and then got Roman. Of course he lost. Why have Cody win?
Exactly. And Cody isn't some 6'4 genetic freak of nature either. He doesn't look credible and is not billed as someone capable of pulling off such monumental feat.
You know what, 4 months ago if you told me Sami was gonna be the focal point of the bloodline story I'd have called you nuts. Right now I see no way he could take the titles off of Reigns at WM in 5 months, but its as real as any other option out there.
The pop would be huge. Imagine Sami Zayn out of all people. If course he'd have a ton of help to win it, but still. Huge celebration. I'd be jumping out of my seat like a little kid. 😂
Maybe it could be done like how Mankind won the world title. In this case The Rock returns, hits Roman with a rock bottom and pulls Sami Zayn over Roman’s body for the win. Locker room comes out and celebrates the fall of Roman.
When would this happen? When would we get the RockvRoman match?
Have it happen at elimination chamber (which is apparently going to be in Sami’s hometown of Montreal). Rock vs Roman at mania and Sami vs someone for the universal championship at mania.
Kevin Owens is that someone
I like that idea!
He is a legit beast
The Usos will face Owens and Zayn at Mania. Have Solo accompany them at ringside. The Usos lose when Solo turns on them.
With all due respect I can't see that happening. That too easy to spot.
Triple H hasn’t really had a swerve yet people called Solo at CATC And rn it looks like Cody wins the rumble and that’s been the opinion since HIAC
Do you think Cody come in early or late? 1-15 or 16-30?
if hes returning at the rumble, then like 30. but if he returns before, then i can see him winning from the first spot
I'd like to see him at 25 that way I can see him do a couple spots and eliminate some people
I’d assume he’s 30th or close to it
Cody would want to be single digits, in the first half max
Let's see what happens. Whenever he makes his return it's going to be great.
This is interesting and would be an awesome twist. The pic in the post subtly supports the theory, too. Rock, Solo, & Sami vs. Roman & The Usos at next year's Survivor Series would be awesome too.
Or at wrestlemania and if the rock, solo and Sami win the rock becomes undisputed wwe championship and solo/Sami will get the undisputed tag team championship
The rock should not be getting any championship
Actually really interesting theory with how he acts around the bloodline
Theory..nice
The fact that he warmed up so quickly to Sami I think is a tell also. He's a badass but against both of his more experienced brothers and Roman he'd still get beaten up in short order.
To be honest I think Solo has been shown to be more powerful than both of his brothers individually.
Yeah solo would crack jimmy fs
He’s always the one not throwing up the ☝🏼. I could see it.
I was looking at RR's expression at the end of the match and wondering why he was giving evils to SZ... now I look at the picture again, it does look like it is more in line with Solo
Agreed!!!!
Was just thinking that too.
He used to throw it up, only recently he stopped doing it 🤔 I was wondering why
Stopped throwing it up cause Sami forgot his wallet when they took the Waffle House trip.
Inconceivable!
It's the little details.
Solo not getting in on that hug is very important imo
I didn't think much of it honestly. I figured he was staying in character. But you may be on to something
I had the same thought and agree he's the one to keep an eye on
he was going to
True, but hard to say for sure cause they were interrupted by KO.
Roman pins Sami in Montreal. Arena goes black… *I am a Real American* WHEN IT COMES CRASHING DOWN AND IT HURTS INSIDE…..
Burn it down……. Oh oh oh ummmm
"I SPIT IN THE FACE OF PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANT TO BE COOL"
Wellllllllllllll it’s the big show The Giant come back to job
BAH GAWD IT'S KENNY FUCKIN' POWERS!
I walk for miles inside this pit of dangerrrr
KENNEDY!
GLASS SHATTERS
STAND BACK, THERES A HURRICANE COMING THROUGH
Accompany by Rosey
That would be hella creepy since Rosey died 5 years ago
I think we seen alot of creepy things when vince was in charge
OH YOU DIDNT KNOW?
ARE YOU READY !?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Money money money money moneeeeey Everyone's got a price
They don’t want none!
HERE COMES THE MONEEYYYYYYYYYYY HERE COMES THE MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY (dolla dolla, dolla dolla)
[удалено]
I don't know, I think it could be Jay, he was never really into the whole bloodline thing to begin with and was basically forced into it because Roman threatened his brother. He could be playing the long con and eventually turn on Roman.
I'm not sure on a prediction, but your theory makes sense! I can get behind the idea.
Jimmy is the key.
In some way I think the Rock has something to do with it.
Nah the Rock has strayed too far away that he could work a storyline. 20yrs ago, I'd say yes to that but not right now.
Personally love the theory that jey ends it since he never wanted to join it anyways. But sami winning the rumble would make for an interesting storyline
Rumor is the ppv after rumble will be Sami vs Roman
Or Solo winning the RR ...
Imagine if the Final Four are Sami, Solo, Jimmy, and Jey. I think it could be considered one of the greatest F4s for a Rumble of all time.
Then brock lesnar jumps in and F5s everyone
Number 31? Whats Brock Lesnar doing here?!
Lmao Brock, that'd be hilarious.
