CM Punk and 4 other WWE Superstars who can help Roman Reigns avenge The Bloodline's attack on Paul Heyman
Since taking over as the CCO of WWE, Triple H has taken the company to new heights that most fans could have never imagined. One of the primary reasons for the sudden boom in popularity is the incredible storyline known as The Bloodline Saga. Paul Heyman has been one of the primary components of the stable's dominant run. Roman Reigns created a special bond with Paul Heyman throughout the storyline, and now that his Wiseman has been attacked, The Tribal Chief will likely seek vengeance.
As we witnessed on a recent episode of SmackDown, Solo Sikoa ordered his henchmen to carry out a brutal attack on Paul Heyman. Now, without Heyman navigating The Bloodline's future, they appear as strong as ever. With that said, Roman Reigns will likely have something to say about the treatment of his Wiseman, once he returns. If that is the case, he will probably need some backup to help settle the score. Here is the list of five WWE Superstars who could help Roman Reigns avenge The Bloodline's attack on Paul Heyman.
#5. Roman's fellow Shield alumni, Seth 'Freakin' Rollins
During the opening segment of a recent RAW, Seth Rollins made it clear that he wanted to settle the score with CM Punk. While this may occupy Rollins' time for the foreseeable future, he can easily pivot and readjust if his Shield brother finds himself in a tough spot with The Bloodline.
The WWE Survivor Series 2012 PLE was the site of the main roster debut of The Shield. From there, they would go on to create problems for the entire roster en route to becoming one of the most dominant factions in wrestling history. Seth Rollins would shock the world at the end of RAW on June 2, 2014, when he pledged his allegiance to Triple H and The Authority after smacking Roman with a chair. Both superstars went on to have incredibly successful singles runs as main event singles stars.
#4. The son of WWE legend Umaga - Zilla Fatu
With the newest additions to The Bloodline, there seems to be one last family member for whom fans are anxiously awaiting his arrival to WWE. That final piece of the puzzle is Zilla Fatu, son of the legendary Samoan warrior known as Umaga.
While not a lot is known about Zilla Fatu, he has been making waves on the Independent scene, primarily in the Texas region, where he got his start under Booker T's Reality of Wrestling. Zilla has been using social media to tease a possible WWE debut soon, but no official word has been made regarding his status. Fatu has a similar style to his father, utilizing the infamous Samoan Spike as his finisher.
#3. 8-time WWE Tag Team Champions, The Usos
Jey Uso is currently enjoying an incredible singles run under the "Main Event" moniker. The WWE Universe has put over Jey in a huge way and is one of the most popular superstars in the company. However, his brother hasn't enjoyed as much success since The Usos split. While there hasn't been much mention of Jimmy in the past couple of months, there is speculation that Uce could return with Roman Reigns, helping with what will probably be a civil war, unlike anything we've ever seen in pro wrestling.
Jimmy and Jey signed with WWE in 2010, debuting with the then-developmental brand FCW. Once they arrived on the main roster, The Usos propelled to the top and remained there throughout their entire legendary run. The tag team division is at the elite level it is, thanks in part to the contributions from The Usos.
#2. 7-time WWE Champion Brock Lesnar
When rewriting history, people will undoubtedly remember Brock Lesnar as one of the greatest combat sports stars of all time. His success not only in WWE but also in fellow TKO partner UFC is unmatched. Brock has dominated the sports entertainment world since joining the company in 2000.
The last time fans saw The Beast Incarnate was at the WWE SummerSlam 2023 event. Since then, rumors have linked The Beast Incarnate to the Vince McMahon lawsuit, which has put his name in a poor light. However, things have quieted down somewhat, and now he could be preparing for a return. That could be smart for Lesnar, as it would help remove the dark cloud over his head.
#1. The Voice of the Voiceless, 2-time WWE Champion CM Punk
When rumors started circulating regarding CM Punk returning to WWE, it seemed the wrestling world was divided. Some fans were excited about the possibility of The Second City Saint coming back, while others were hesitant because of the baggage he brings. Nonetheless, Punk received a hero's welcome at the Survivor Series in front of his fellow Chicagoans in the Allstate Arena.
CM Punk suffered an unfortunate injury during the Royal Rumble match, but he seems to be recovering well, as shown in his recent TV appearances. He has a score to settle with Drew McIntyre and Seth Rollins. However, there's no doubt that Punk would drop everything to help his good friend, Paul Heyman. There is no one more infamously connected to Heyman than CM Punk and his involvement in this storyline would be ideal for everyone involved.
