2-time WWE Champion may get involved in the Men's WarGames Match at Survivor Series, says Mark Henry
WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry recently discussed the upcoming Men's WarGames Match between the two iterations of The Bloodline. He claimed a two-time former WWE Champion could get involved.
Last night on SmackDown, Paul Heyman returned to reveal CM Punk as the fifth member of the OG Bloodline's team. Before that happened, Sami Zayn and The Usos had struggled to recruit a partner despite approaching several superstars, including Seth Rollins. The Visionary declined to team up with his former Shield teammate Roman Reigns but said he had no problems with the other members.
With two of Rollins' enemies now in the WarGames Match, Bronson Reed on the side of the new Bloodline and Punk with the OG Bloodline, the World's Strongest Man did not rule out the possibility of The Visionary getting involved in the clash. However, Henry disclosed on the Busted Open podcast that he does not want to see this scenario come to fruition:
"No, I don't [want to see Seth Rollins get involved]. I don't. I agree he had his opportunity, he had his opportunity and he chose to not be involved. He said that he didn't wanna be involved, which fits right in line with pro wrestling, say one thing, do another. So, maybe we will see him get involved and mess it up for somebody and help somebody else out at the same time," he said. [16:35 - 17:03]

Vince Russo slams WWE for booking CM Punk instead of Seth Rollins in the WarGames Match
Speaking on BroDown, former WWE head writer Vince Russo discussed the addition of CM Punk to the OG Bloodline. The wrestling veteran claimed it hurt Seth Rollins.
The 63-year-old pointed out that Punk joining Roman Reigns' team made no sense storyline-wise in his opinion:
"Now with Punk being the fifth guy, what did they do? They buried Rollins. They one hundred percent buried their babyface. Bronson joined The Bloodline; they wind up screwing Rollins, and Rollins ain't gonna be in the match. So they one thousand percent screwed their babyface. It was so obvious. So now they pull CM Punk out of their backside to get the pop, but it makes zero sense storyline-wise," he said.
It will be interesting to see if The Visionary will indeed end up interfering in the anticipated WarGames clash at WWE Survivor Series on November 30.
